Puff the Fishxx: This is an ongoing set of ramblings just depending on how I feel when I write it, and whichever character it seems to best fit with you'll get to see into "their" head.

It's a funny thing, really, to be so low that there's no where else to fall. To be unable to get up. So helpless. You feel weak, and worthless. So low you can't fall again until you climb back up, but you can't even do that. So there really isn't anything worth aiming for, or so you think.
When you're down and low, you can't see much light above you, because to get so low you can't fall again you have to fall hard, and fast. If you fall fast, there's no way you can grab hold of the edges of the hole and start to climb back up. That's what happened to me when my family died. The only family I had left wasn't much of one either.
So where do you go from there? You go up. You go up and up until you're standing tall and you don't have to climb anymore. You climb up and watch out for lose rocks and vines so you don't fall back down again, and the more you climb, the stronger you get, and the easier you can hold yourself up.
That's what I had to do, and what I'm still doing. You can do nothing but climb. So climb.
