"No one else is dealing with your demons, meaning maybe defeating them, could be the beginning of your meaning, friend."
-Twenty One Pilots
 
This quote comes from my favorite song by the best band in the world (aka twenty one pilots.) The song is called kitchen sink and the first time I heard it, it really spoke to me. The most powerful part of the song, I think, is when Tyler Joseph (the band leader) sings this,
"Are you searching for a purpose?
Then write something, yeah it might be
worthless
Then paint something, yeah it might be
wordless
pointless curses, nonsense verses
You'll see purpose start to surface
No one else is dealing with your demons
Meaning maybe defeating them
Could be the beginning of your meaning,
friend."
Now, this relates to me because after going through some things, hearing this song really inspired to me find myself and to become a better person. After getting help, I realized how true this quote is. Overcoming your "demons" or your life struggles really does make you feel like a stronger/better person and allows you to realize your self worth too. I'm not saying this fixes everything, but it does give you a good start off on the right path for yourself which is a good thing. Now going through some things and being stronger gives me a good reason to help others overcome what they're going through too. In doing that, it makes me feel like I mean something to others and also allows them to find their meaning too.
