You can't skip chapters, that's not how life works. You have to read every line, meet every character. You won't enjoy all of it. Hell, some chapters will make you cry for weeks. You will read things you don't want to read, you will have moments when you don't want the pages to end. But you have to keep going. Stories keep the world revolving. Live yours, don't miss out.

You're still here, you know;
under all the messy things,
under the stress, the anxiety, the sadness, you're still you.
Come up for some air;
there are bright skies up here.
You have to pull yourself up;
I know you feel like you can't,
but you can.
I believe in you,
more than you know.
