I want some say too

The moments that are a struggle, make the happy ones taste that much sweeter. We don't stop to realize that when we are going through life's hardest moments that it is defining who we are, even if we don't know. 

It is in these moments that we are learning our strengths, our weaknesses, our needs and our wants. We learn what we are capable of, and when we just need to ask for help. 

We just don't give ourselves credit for these moments in life because no one enjoys them. No one likes hurt, or pain, loneliness, or frustration.

Yet in this low of low, we are opening ourselves up to the next highest of highs. We are stretching our character and learning our own boundaries. 

It is through these tears, this sadness, this hurt, that I will define myself because I will not let what has happened in my life, define who I am. I want some say too.
