everyday is the start of something beautiful

"meet jessica stone"

"we create so much conflict and struggle
for ourselves, where there should be joy.
we have to fight the urge to fill experiences,
and the holes in between them with static,
and shit that clouds what really matters.

watching someone triumph over REAL struggle,
REAL loss slaps us sober
it provides a clarity that is crucial.
it inspires us to be present and
to appreciate all we take for granted.

meet my friend jessica.she is a bad ass.
she reached out, and included me in her life.
i am lucky to have her.
be inspired.

I've watched it a few times since and wanted to share it with everyone.
I can't even imagine how strong this girl is, it's inspiring!
Warning, you might want to grab a tissue before watching
If you enjoyed watching, share it with someone!
