This is for the broken ones. The misunderstood. The "too quiet" and "too much" ones. The pretenders. The lost ones and the wanderers. The ones who know how to smile on cue and how to cry themselves to sleep. The ones who have forgotten what hope is. The unloved and unappreciated. The ones who feel like they don't matter. The ones who don't feel alive anymore. The depressed, stressed, and messed-up ones. The ones who are hurting and the ones who are healing.

Most of all, this is for the strongest ones. The ones who understand the importance of kindness. The ones who give love even when it is not returned. The wounded, the bruised, the scarred. The fighters, the conquerors. The brave, the persistent, the extraordinary. The ones who try their hardest. The heroes.

This is for you.

And yes, you are a hero - even if the only person you've ever saved is yourself.

With love,
Shayla
