When you are lying on the bedroom floor and you are crying - no, crying isn't the right word but I'm not sure the English language has a word for this yet because this is more than just tears streaming down your face. When you are lying on the floor and you are crying, and your vision is blurry, and you can't breathe. I want you to remember this, your lungs and heart are doing all that they can to help you breathe again. Your vision will become clear again but sometimes they just need a good wash with salt water. It is okay if this time it takes longer to clean. You are skin and bones and muscle that all breathe one word: strong. This doesn't mean that you don't feel weak from time to time. Here's something else: while you're lying on the ground, press your ear against the floor and listen. Hear that sound? It's the sound of the living and it's beating inside of you.
