A while back, I found this on someone’s MySpace. Despite the trite, anonymous nature of the text, it seems this contains more truth than most MS memes. What do you think?

As we grow up, we learn that even the one person that wasn’t supposed to ever let you down probably will. You will have your heart broken probably more than once and it’s harder every time. You’ll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken. You’ll fight with your best friend. You’ll blame a new love for things an old one did. You’ll cry because time is passing too fast, and you’ll eventually lose someone you love. So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you’ve never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you’ll never get back.

I really enjoy texts like this. Give it to me straight, Doc. Don’t sugar-coat. But often things that are meant to be straightforward are just angsty; this seems beyond angst. The unfortunately saccharine ending (your typical “dance like no one’s looking” nonsense, as though that actually means something) detracts from the thought, but nevermind that. Again, I really want to know your opinion.
