Expect the unexpected.

A simple yet very meaningful word of advice or support from the most unexpected person at 4 in the morning [and the tears are pouring] can do wonders for one's heart and soul. I find it really bizarre how someone who doesn't even know you that well can clear things up for you in a jiffy.

Lately, I've been receiving messages from the people whom I least expect it from. Messages left by friends whom I haven't seen for the longest time. A simple offer of a shoulder to cry on or a set of ears to listen to your rantings. It's the simple things in life we forget. I've gotten support from the most unexpected people. People that I've only met recently, people that I've lost contact with, people who aren't close to me, and most of all, people who I didn't think would care. These people who, apparently, know how I feel and understand me (or at least try to) have, in a way, shown me the light. In this pitch-black tunnel that I've been traveling in for quite some time, I am guided to the end of it, to the light, by simple messages of concern, by quotes sent in the middle of the day, by unexpected answers to simple survey questions [i know, shallow], and by messages sent in the middle of the night.

I have found comfort and enlightenment in the most unexpected places,
from the most unexpected people.
And I'm loving it.
You people know who you are.
Thank you, from the bottom of my little black heart.
