    This song is a perfect example of one of my favorite quotes:

    My friend was killed by a drunk driver a few weeks after her 16th birthday. The week before the accident we had to do a presentation in class and part of the presentation was to pick a song that represents us. She picked this song.

    This song is one of the best I have ever heard, I am 28 years old, and I was just Diagnosed with Colon Cancer two months ago, I know that this fight has just begun, and I will do my best, from the first day of my diagnosis I started to listen this song, the hardest thing about this is not having your parents with you, my dad died because prostate cancer, I will do my best to win this battle and thank you One Republic for this beautiful song, which inspires you to keep going despite the pain you feel every day!

It takes time to sort through each death and realise my new reality but I have and there are so many beautiful souls around me that can’t be ignored. I try to see everyone or ring them as much as possible, I’ve found with age that the laundry will keep as will the dust. Just got back from a wonderful trip with my hubby of 25+ yrs.!

      @@alwaysnohandle That’s exactly how I had to live for the past three years. One second at a time, then one minute, five minutes…until just recently. I always got out of bed at my usual time and didn’t crawl back in until bedtime though. It was very bad from what I’ve been told. I lost about 6 months. I truly lost that much time, no clue what I did after identifying my big brother’s body. I’m an only child now as the first born died the same as he did, 25 yrs apart. Then my aunt, who was a big sister to me, died with my mum following a few months later. Her heart was so broken. But just recently, something knocked me out of my pain and sadness, I’m sure God played a hand in it. I’m happy. I’m no longer broken. I’m going to be ok. I’m smiling as I write this. What a wonderful person you are to take time and encourage a complete stranger. Thank you 😊. I’m living now, not just surviving. It feels phenomenal! We just took our Christmas Tree down and packed up all the decorations this weekend. I wanted to keep it up and ENJOY the beauty of them all. I was singing while we were packing things up! My poor husband. He started crying because I haven’t sung in three years! I told him ‘hope you still like my singing because I sing all time again. Even started playing my piano again!’. He laughed and started singing with me. I have a whole new reality now but it’s ok. I can make it beautiful and full and that’s just what I’ve been doing. Oh and throwing out/giving away loads of stuff that piled up. I inherited all three estates. It’s a lot of ‘stuff’! It’s going to be one heck of a sale come Spring! 🤣🤣

    I’ve been living with Cushings Disease for the last 17 years. I am Now 35. Diagnosis took 15 years. Removing the pituitary tumor didn’t normalize cortisol. It’s devastating to know you’ll spend every day you have left being sick. For a long time I was waiting to live. Waiting for my diagnosis, waiting for my surgery, waiting for my recovery to do the things I want and need to do. Life is short and so fragile. Don’t put your life on hold, even if it seems you should. We don’t get to go back or get more time. Live and exist the best you can each day. God Bless to all 🌷♥️

      You're original, cannot be replaced
      If you only knew what the future holds
      After a hurricane comes a rainbow
      Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed
      So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
      Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow
      And when it's time you'll know
      You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
      Just own the night like the 4th of July"

      @knowles the beauty of losing someone is you never really lose them, they will always be apart of you and your life. And you have your whole life to have more best friends, lovers, and family.
      My cousin was killed by a drunk person on her 19th person, so I know this pain is not easy. But, he would want you to still live for him and his memory ❤
      So live and make it worth it! Then, one day when you see him again, you can tell him you lived! For both of you ❤❤❤
      Take care and never be afraid to ask for help or seek therapy. One day you will find healing, and it will not take away the pain, but you will see the beauty of grief and how it heals us and makes us grow to love even more ❤❤❤

    Being a high school senior about to graduate in 36 hours I’ve had this song on repeat all week. I’ve listened to it for a couple years now but it’s meant something different to me lately. A chapter of my life is closing and although I’m excited for future I wanna look back on my high school years and childhood in general and be proud of what I’ve done. Academic achievements, sports I’ve played, friends I’ve made, people I’ve dated (for better or for worse), bonds I’ve built, all of it. There’s some things I maybe should’ve done differently but when it’s all said and done I wanna look back and be able to say that everything I’ve done has made me who I am today. No matter what I did, whether good, bad, funny, or stupid, it all accumulated to where I’m now standing. I wanna be able to say I truly made the most of everything and just LIVED. And if for some reason any other high school senior is scrolling through these comments and reads all this I wanna just say good luck. Don’t dwell on your past. Be thankful for the trials because they’ve battle tested you. You’re stronger because of them. Don’t spend time looking in your rear view mirror that you miss what’s in front of you. Be proud of everything you’ve done 💯

    I know some won’t believe this, but this song is the most important song in my life. I had depression and suicidal thoughts for 4 years. It felt like no one wanted me, my school didn’t let me hang out with my friends, I was getting beaten up every single day, my parents were quite abusive, and life was just not worth living to me. I texted my friend Mark that I was going to end it all. He sent me this song, and after listening to it, my whole life changed. This is one of the most inspirational songs of all time, and I give everything that happened in my life in the past 3 years to this song.

If each child had even half the grit and courage that Brian has, imagine what the world would be like. It also reminds us adults and parents our goals of helping the kids be brave and open up to all of life's experiences, not sheltering them but equipping them to be ready for life's tempests when they come.

    I'm Eli. I have lived with something for so long I was afraid to talk about it. I was sexually molested growing up. I have been threatened my whole life, and I have been abuse in every way. I attempted suicide but it didn't work. I have lived in the shadows of all this for a long time. Slowly drowning in my pain but each time I hear this song I am motivated to want to live. Thank you for this song. Maybe there is someone like me reading this and going through what I have gone through. No matter who you are live life to the full don't kill yourself and know that you are not alone.

    When that kid talked about the life expectancy being up to 36 it reminded me about my own life expectancy with EDS type 4. I've known people who have been younger than me that have died from type 4. I can't ever have children and I wouldn't want biological children anyway since it's genetic. It still freaks me out to know that I might only have 20 more years to live. I wish I could do things like ride a bike or play basketball again but it's too dangerous for me. I wish I could be able to say that I have done everything in life that I wanted to do by the time it's my time to go but I'm trapped in this body that refuses to let me live!

      Life is strange. It can be incredibly cruel and increadibly wonderful.
      I can imagine how you feel (at least a little bit) because I sometimes have problems breathing and it cracks me up when I'm not in control of my body. This is nothing compared to your situation, I know. And that makes me want to appreciate life even more. We should all do and maybe shouldn't have such high expectations. I think we can be satisfied and happy with less. I mean I could die tomorrow...

    I lost a friend due to this vile illness. His name was Keith and was the sweetest person on this earth. He was a music major with a love of English, and we and our other friends spent so much time laughing, brainstorming and creating the greatest papers of our lives. It's my favorite class, and I'll never forget him. He never shared he had this diseased, but I always remember him coughing. I used to call him the "Keith Cough" and hearing that familiar cough would let me know his wonderful presence was in the building. Two years ago, Keith committed suicide. It was one of the worst things I've felt ever. That's why I found out he had Cystic Fibrosis. Apparently some nights, you can't breathe and it feels like you were dying. Apparently you really do feel like you're breathing through a straw... I feel like I could've done something and it still traumatizes me. I love you, Keith Wilson. Thank you for being a real person and a great influence in my life :)

    I´m grateful for technological and scientific medicine, but not just that. I´m more grateful for the full range of possibilities. My dad died young at 51 as his cancer was diagnosed in a biopsy, he promptly had a massive heart attack dying and getting revived, delaying treatment, getting devastating radiation treatment that killed the cancer and left him wasted. He waited a mere few months, then rushed back to work, and in 4 months died from pneumonia. When I was 17.
    He was atheist humanist, and "educationalist." I went to a great college, studied liberal arts Bio Anthro, and kept pursuing my knowledge of psychosomatic medicine, interfaith spiritual practice, and more. I got a starting boost from Louise Hay´s work, in her book You Can Heal Your Life, where she shares how she was left by her husband after 14 years, started Religious Science ministry studies and the like, and got cancer. She healed it with spiritual holistics and bodywork psychotherapy.
    I´m now an avociational expert on medically attested, medically impossible cures with spiritual-religious testimony. I hope some people look into it to do what technology simply often can´t.

      Growing up just means there is so much more you can do. You can learn anything you want, go anywhere you want do any damn thing you want and even better you have the knowledge to do these things, & you can look back on all the things you've done. I look like a boring middle aged overweight woman from the outside, but in my life I have lived on 3 continents, skydived, para glided, scuba dived and abseiled & god knows what else.. I've watched sunrises in Fiji, & sunsets in Iceland. I've traveled by cargo ship, dog sled & on a crowded bus with a cage full of chickens in third world countries. Growing up isn't the end, it's the beginning of a whole new chapter. Now assuming it's all over just because you're getting older, that's when it's all over. Hell growing up & growing old beats the alternative. I mean the boy video who will never get a chance to grow up.

    Since the launched of this song, it always reminded me to my brother, and now more because he just passed away. He had spina bifida and he couldnt walk, but he did a lot of things, like diving, was a runner (in his wheelchair), played tennis, in the university found two organizations to fight for the rights of the dissability people and help them, studied philosophy, was a language teacher... He never gave up, and at this moment this song is so emotional for me, he was a fighter, and as the song say "with every broken bone, I swear I lived", he lived. Bro, you are my hero, and I will love you for the rest of my life, thank you for all.
