The Beautiful Thing

The beautiful thing about life is that when you hit rock bottom, you can't go lower--
Until you do.
And then there you are, below the ocean floor, knee deep in Hell.
God has always loved challenges.
So challenge you he will,
A game of cat and mouse wherein the cat is infinitely powerful and all knowing, and wants something more interesting than a game of chess.

The view is astounding when you can look up at other people's lowest.
You get used to the headache behind your eyes
And soon you get used to the idea of having grey hair before you turn eighteen.
Sometimes you want to laugh,
And sometimes it all makes you cry.
But it's easy to cherish the eye of the storm during a hurricane, even if all you've got are puppy kisses and stolen laughter.
