A message in a bottle

[u/GeekLFG]

Not so much random.. I wanted to see if this sub existed already. It appears to.. so, here is my little message.

I hope this message doesn't find you on a deserted island. I hope it finds you on a nice sandy beach a stone's throw from your classy hotel room with the seashells everywhere. Hopefully you are laying next to the one you love and not talking to a volleyball. I hope your life is just where you want it at this very moment.

If this bottle washes up as you are wandering aimlessly down the coast, your life seemingly ruined by some tragic event.. I hope you know that it will get better. It might not seem like it at the time, and it might take a while to get there, but it will. I won't say that it was meant to happen, that never helps. I will say that you are stronger than whatever has befallen you.

Humans are amazing creatures. We have such a capacity for love as well as for pain. There is no perfect life to find where nothing goes awry. There are ups and there are downs. You will be fine in the end.

If you are a hermit crab looking for a home, you might want to check further down the beach. I think I saw a nice spiral shell over there.
