on injuries in a river

we really are just trying, aren't we?

humanity, i guess. we just want to be loved. we just want to make it in this life. we just want things to go okay sometimes.

but life doesn't always go okay. which is the way life is. despite that, we cope and we have faith and we rely on the people who we love and who love us the most. we pick ourselves up out of the mud, dust ourselves off, let the scrapes and the bruises heal, and we keep diving.
