The Right Words

There are words that you sometimes need to hear in order to make your day better. It's odd, but it really works. Sometimes, it's an I love you from a friend, or from several friends. Sometimes it's words of encouragement in the gym. Sometimes it's your teacher announcing that this week's film lab is Star Wars. Sometimes it's a friend who is going through what you are going through, even though neither of you knew before, and reminding you that your feelings are valid and you did the right thing and your feelings are valid EVEN THOUGH you already know you did the right thing, and it's not alright, but it's okay. Sometimes, the words come from Sesame Street.
