Never Making Promises

Reason 226: Ever get just so filled with emotion that you have to sob? Like, not sad tears or happy tears or proud tears. Just let it all out and breathe tears. Yeah, I like those. They feel great, and so relieving and comforting. You know what the best part of a show is? When all the little subplots finally connect and EVERYBODY finally knows EVERYTHING and uses all that knowledge to get to a solution. So it is with life. Getting generic answers is useful, but only for a time. Finally knowing 100% exactly the path you need to take? It's enough to make you cry :)

How Does She Know?

Reason 162: Reassurance. Hooray for knowing where you stand.

Community

Reason 107: So earlier in the weekend, Youtuber Charlie McDonnell, aka charlieissocoollike posted this video:

Not long after, these video responses were posted:

Currently, there are three whole pages of video responses.

To me, a sense of community isn't found in a small town where everyone knows each other. It's where a bunch of strangers have one thing in common and support each other without hesitation. I love this. It's absolutely inspiring. Not only is one of youtube's most successful vloggers admitting to something that haunts everyone at some point (at every point), but people are coming back saying they understand and doing what they can to reassure him and keep him going. It's absolutely brilliant, so moving, and I'm thrilled this is how I started my day.

I extend this challenge to you. Today we're being selfless, but TOMORROW, do something for yourself. Something you're scared of doing because of what others may think of you. "Take a minute. Take a day. Take a week. And just be scared. And then stop. And don't let it get to you."
