When and What (a realization)

It may not be the same as h0w y0u look at things, but this is h0w I see them...

When y0u feel like everythin pulls
you down, don't lean on them.
When you think like the w0rld is full of s0rr0w and grief and agony
think that y0u bel0ng t0 an0ther w0rld s0mewhere else.

When y0u hear the music of melancholy, st0p listening.
When y0u see that in many eyes, there is a
cloud of sadness, make sure y0urs are n0t one of th0se.
And when y0u d0n't understand what happens arr0und, just hang in there;
believe that s0mewhere things are still and peaceful.

Remember, life is n0t ab0ut
laughing. It is h0w y0u laugh
when there's n0 sighn at all.
Everything that makes y0u
fall teaches y0u t0 fly
Everything that makes y0u
turn back reminds y0u to
bring s0mething y0u've gone
so far when all y0u need is a step behind.

Not everything means what it seems.
Not everything seems what it means.

Now, don't let y0ur life get
lost while y0u're in search
of s0mething. Something
may mean a lot but that remains s0mething.
Your life is everything, though.
Don't be afraid to g0 on but
be certain t0 where y0u are g0ing.
Don't f0rget t0 l0ok back.
If things might fall, d0n't let them fall with0ut fighthin.
Lastly, trust the self within y0u.
Believe in y0ur dreams. Fly with y0ur wings.
Be free. Explore. Disc0ver.
Love if y0u're in love.
Cry if y0u're hurt.
See what it feels.
Kn0w what it means.
And y0u'll see-y0u can make y0ur life the way y0u want it t0 be.
