Crumble.

When Miley Cyrus was young and clothed, she'd said "Life's a Climb, but the view is great."
Back then it was just another dialogue and I was busy drooling over Lucas Till. Today, five years later it all makes sense. 
When you can see the world around you crashing down and you don't know where to hide. 
When you can see the strongest of support systems buckling under the weight.
When you can feel the most bound ropes slip away.
When you think you've hit rock bottom. It feels like you're helpless and maybe you are, but what you aren't is someone who gives up easily. 
You're strong and you don't need me telling you that. You know it, deep down you know it but you're too afraid to say it out loud.

Life isn't a cookie. People are going to disappoint you at every turn. And believe me they will. You don't give in to those that lead you to believe you aren't good enough. You don't let them blindfold you and walk you to your doom.
You stand back up, dust it off and strut away into oblivion. That's what you do.
Cause you hold the reigns to your life, not somebody else. As much as you'd want to sit back and let someone else take control of your life, you can't. They can't.

The most trusted friends are going to turn their backs on you. You can't conquer a corner or weep to your pillow.
Ms. Perfect is going to thrust signs of imperfection in your face. You don't give up on love and become a loner. 

Your life is like the Castle of Cards. The swiftest of winds is going to blow you back to Square One. But if there is a Square One, there is also the Final Destination. And you'll get there. If you want to get there.
It seems like such an effort to build it back up after it's been destroyed time and again. But when you get there, when you finally do build it up, there's nothing that can make you more proud. Sheer effort and willpower is all it takes to build it up when it's been taken down.

Believe that you are much bigger a person than those who lust for your downfall. 

You've got one life. If you let someone else live it for you, is it really worth it? 
Live it up, or watch it crumble.
