ps:

I just HAVE to add- I found a bunch of pictures last night of flowers that I LOVE (here's my "facebook album" of them), but there is one picture in particular, this one, that just tells a story like I never knew a picture of a flower could!  Like it is just symbolic to me in SO many ways, it almost makes me cry a little every time I look at it.  No joke, it really hits me like a little jolt every time I look at it.  I don't know, somehow I feel like it perfectly illustrates how I feel lately.  Like I'm finally blossoming into this beautiful (I hope that doesn't sound full of myself, I don't mean it that way, I just kind of like what I'm turning in to) flower with it's own story and healthy, strong support, and just as I'm growing the most a storm comes and knocks me over.  And I lay there, a little damaged but still strong, and just am so knocked out by the storm I have to lay there for a bit to catch my breath and recover.  I'm in that part now, the ugh, sometimes it's hard just to do anything.  B/c I just start feeling so awful and shitty and sad (I might have left out some important stuff in my life... don't worry, not TOO important, but important to me).  And I still try to put on a happy face and all that, and I know eventually I'll start pulling back together and grow up stronger and more beautiful than ever, but for the moment I just need a break, and it's hard to see that it'll happen.  I dunno, I just love that picture lol. :)
