Strong Heart
Some seasons in life change unannounced.
Ideals crumble.
Dreams dissipate.
We were never promised otherwise anyway.
But life goes on. It must. To think of leaving it all and losing your life is an easy way out.
To live - that’s difficult. To once again fill your life with the sense of meaning you once lost, and to cherish that meaning - that’s difficult.
It takes a strong heart. An unrelenting spirit.

Life goes on indeed, fellow melancholic. That is why my favorite song is "The End of the World" by Skeeter Davis:
Why does the sun go on shining?
Why does the sea rush to shore?
Don't they know it's the end of the world,
'Cause you don't love me any more?
Why do the birds go on singing?
Why do the stars glow above?
Don't they know it's the end of the world.
It ended when I lost your love.
I wake up in the morning and I wonder,
Why everything's the same as it was.
I can't understand. No, I can't understand,
How life goes on the way it does.
Why does my heart go on beating?
Why do these eyes of mine cry?
Don't they know it's the end of the world.
It ended when you said goodbye.
Why does my heart go on beating?
Why do these eyes of mine cry?
Don't they know it's the end of the world.
It ended when you said goodbye.
