Somebody Else (Tim Mattia, 2016)
"It all starts with not wanting to get out of bed, that's how you know you're getting bad again"
So many people are hurting. So many people are yearning to be heard, to have a genuine friend show them they matter, that they care. A soft touch, a warm hug, or even the simplest pat on the back can mean so much to a lost and struggling soul. Be there and be sincere. No one wants to be alone, nobody wants to struggle, but sometimes life gets the best of us. Sometimes we just need someone.

A lot of the time it does not matter how you do it, what really matters is that you do it. If you find yourself in a situation that scares you, go ahead and face it, because facing your fears is actually what will make you so much stronger. It will help you grow and heal. And in this case, it really does not matter how it goes - maybe you will feel as if you made a fool of yourself, maybe you will feel embarrassed, maybe you will feel uncomfortable, or maybe it will leave you unbelievably anxious. But you know what? You faced it anyway. And that is what matters, my love. Healing sometimes takes a lot of courage, yet here you are fighting to get better every single day. I am so proud of you. So please do not be too hard on yourself when you ‘mess up’ a certain situation that scared you, because what matters is that you faced your fears and pushed through anyway. You are doing such a good job, my love.

I’ve always loved this picture. Makes me laugh. Thinking about jumping into the lake during a forest fire and trying to take a self-portrait. All after my ACL knee surgery. It wasn’t the best idea to take a self-portrait in the water with a recovering knee. Nevertheless, the results are stunning.
