An Open Letter to All Losers

  Some say that loss is very hard to deal with. Others say that it’s a petty man’s problem and not to be thought in depth. Either way, once you’ve lost something important, your life will never be the same. A loss creates a void in your heart where it once was and depending on how you cope with said loss, it will either take seconds to fill or eternities. A wise man would say that the more you regret a loss and keep dwelling in the past that once was, the more scarred you will be. Said wise man would be right, but another wise man would add that there are also benefits to thinking about a loss. One good example is, of course, a lesson. In most cases, a loss is due to a mistake, which never happens the same time twice as the second time is no longer a mistake and becomes a choice. By learning from said loss, you can draw from it a valuable lesson and can be used as momentum for driving your life ever forward, away from the past. This is the proper way of coping with a loss for someone or something important. Even still, most resort to wallowing in lethargy and regret, longing for a person that will never come. I’ve seen many good men destroyed, killed slowly because of this thinking pattern. I myself have nearly suffered such a fate, but now here I am, head held high and writing this small composition to prevent many more from befalling the same fate. I know firsthand how it feels to lose a loved one and I can tell you straightaway, no matter how bad it seems at first, it is NOT the end of the world. There is still a silver lining for you. Do not succumb to depression, as that will spell the end of YOUR world. The trick is not missing what you lost, but appreciating the little things you still have. For a heartbroken lover, there are many more charming men and women in the world if you know where to look.  For a merchant in the confines of bankruptcy, you may have lost your fortune, but at least you haven’t lost your life. Money is easily gained, friend. A loss of few means not the end of all. So, as a final note, do remember that no manner of beauty that you lost cannot be replaced by the beauty still existing. The people on high will make sure of that.

  So suck it up, Erik. It’s just a damn sweetroll. You can buy another at the inn for a few gold pieces, milk drinker.
