Good thing storms don't always last for long. Then they come back. That is the part that sucks. Your flowers bloom then there is the possibility that they will drown again. Optimism is over rated anyway. When the walls are stripped away, all we have is hope either way. It is all we need, not a sunny disposition. Although it can help. As a slightly on topic note: I read somewhere that listening to country music and video game soundtracks could be connected to suicide.
