I guess it's a bit like this

I guess it's like when you find out Santa Clause isn't real anymore. I guess it's like the time when Blink 182 broke up, and everyone was really, really sad. I guess it's like the time I turned 12, and I realized chances are I probably wasn't ever going to be a famous singer. And I guess it's like finding out that I do have a long way to go to get to where I want to be. I guess there comes a time in your life when you come to terms with everything, whether you just happened to or whether you had to push yourself to. Because being in the "Popular Crowd" in High School isn't going to determine the kind of life you live. And maybe accepting that life isn't perfect, and that neither are we, is probably the most liberating, exhilarating thing we can do for ourselves. And once we are at peace with how life works, it's kind of like our souls begin to breathe a little easier. And every day makes a little more sense. And yes maybe today will snow, but maybe tomorrow won't. And maybe I'm not as complete as I should be, but maybe the summertime will still come. And maybe once Blink 182 broke up, maybe they would be together again one day. And I guess it's like in 1970, when the Beatles wrote Let It Be. And maybe, just maybe, that's kind of how life works. And maybe, just maybe, I needed to learn that tonight.
