Writer's Block: The long and winding road

[Error: unknown template qotd]

I had to answer this one.

I believe that we are forged, and tempered by the events of our past. This actually reminds me of a quote that I hold close to me.

'Freedom is what you do with what has been done to you.' by Sartre.

There have been many difficult things in my past, but I would never go back, and never erase them because they have made me stronger, and taught me many, many lessons about life, and the things we take for granted. If it is worth it, it is never easy; if it is easy, it is probably not worth it.

Like everyone I have moments where I go 'why me,' and I have things that haunt my dreams, and wake me up at night, but these are things that are part of me, and I would not be who I am without the lessons they taught to shape me. Yes, I am more than what has happened to me, but I use it; I make it mine, and I don't let the bad things rule me.

Every hard ship you get through, every thing you survive, makes you stronger, and one day you'll be able to hold your head up high, and say you're alive.

Author's Note: For Yo, who sent the required amount of v-gifts in my help_japan thread. So, I had a lot of fun with this one, actually. Again, not to sure on my characterization; it's been a long time since I've done anything with YYH, but I did my best to keep them in character. I kind of fail at pairings. lawl.
