"Struggle, Fight, Overcome."

The best advice was given to me tonight... In the middle of a horrible ordeal too. Such advice as this makes me mostly angry that no one's ever worded it right before as to where I connect to it..

"Struggle, Fight, Overcome. Such is life. You have to fight for what you want or you'll never have it. Emily, you have to take it!"

You know... Fighting for things hasn't always got me what I wanted. Shit, in one experience it pushed what I wanted away. A best friend, who only started hating me when I started fighting for him. But you know... I ask myself now, "Would I be okay knowing that I didn't try?" And then I answer myself, "Of course not!"

I'm currently in the middle of losing another person... Well, honestly he's trying to lose me. But I took that advice to heart. I'm not letting go without a fight. I want to keep this person with me... And I'll find a way. Okay so far all I've done is beg. And yeah I feel stupid about it. ... Real stupid. But, I'll make it right.

People are always saying they're sick of fighting for things. I guess at some point you have to realize it's never going to end. As long as you love, as long as you feel for another person you'll find yourself fighting. Sitting around waiting for life to change isn't the worst idea... but certainly not the best.

"Struggle, Fight, Overcome." ... Then write a blog about it.
