And sometimes, you find yourself in a crisis, unsure of what to do, and wishing you could contribute more, but scared of what might happen.
And then you turn to other people for comfort. And you look to them to listen to you and to just be there. You don't expect them to fix anything, but you expect them to understand you are upset, even if they don't get why. It is then that you discover how much the people around you care. Even the ones you don't know very well that show up at your house to listen, or to distract you from your thoughts.
This weekend, some crazy stuff went down. Like, I can't even begin to explain. I can't remember the last time I felt so drained in every sense of the word. I felt myself spiraling farther and farther into my emotions and letting them takeover and could hear myself saying things I didn't really want to say, but probably needed to.
And lucky for me, I have some of THE most wonderful people in my life. People that can listen to me and understand that I just need to say things. And one person that can take the blunt of my frustrations and understand that the majority of what I said was out of emotion and stress and not sleeping.
Not that it changed the way things turned out, but maybe its for the best.
For the moment at least. We'll see how things go in the future.
I'm grateful for everyone in my life, and I'm especially grateful to the strength of my roommate.
