When we honestly ask ourselves which person in our lives means the most to us, we often find that it is those who, instead of giving advice, solutions, or cures, have chosen rather to share our pain and touch our wounds with a warm and tender hand. The friend who can be silent with us in a moment of despair or confusion, who can stay with us in an hour of grief and bereavement, who can tolerate not knowing, not curing, not healing and face with us the reality of our powerlessness, that is a friend who cares.

I've learned:

that you can get by on charm for about 15 minutes. After that, you’d better know something. I’ve learned that you shouldn’t compare yourself to the best others can do, but the best you can do. I’ve learned that it’s not what happens to people that’s important, it’s what they do about it. I’ve learned that you can do something in an instant that will give you heartache for life. I’ve learned that no matter how thin you slice it, there are always two sides. I’ve learned that it’s taking me a long time to become the person I want to be. I’ve learned that it’s a lot easier to react than it is to think. I’ve learned that you should always leave the loved ones with loving words; it may be the last time you see them. I’ve learned that you can keep going after you think you can’t. I’ve learned that we are responsible for what we do, no matter how we feel. I’ve learned that either you control your attitude or it controls you. I’ve learned that sometimes I just need to be held. I’ve learned that regardless of how hot & steamy a relatonship is at first, the passion fades and there has better be a something else to take its place. I’ve learned that heroes are the people who do what has to be done when it needs to be done, regardless of the consequences. I’ve learned that learning to forgive takes practice. I’ve learned that there are people who love you dearly, but just don’t know how to show it. I’ve learned that money is a lousy way of keeping score. I’ve learned that ‘best friends’ sometimes is just a big lie. I’ve learned that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you’re down will be the ones who help you get back up. I’ve learned that sometimes when I’m angry I have the right to be angry, but that doesn’t give me the right to be cruel. I’ve learned that true friendship continues to grow, even over the longest distance, same goes for true love. I’ve learned that just because someone doesn’t love you the way you want them to doesn’t mean they don’t love you with all they have. I’ve learned that no matter how much I care, people just don’t care back. I’ve learned that maturity has more to do with what types of experiences you’ve had and what you’ve learned from them and less to do with how many birthdays you’ve celebrated. I’ve learned that you should never tell a child her dreams are unlikely or outlandish; few things are more humiliating and what a tragedy it would be if she believed it. I’ve learned that your family won’t always be there for you. It may seem funny but people you aren’t related to can take care of you and love you and teach you to trust people again. Families aren’t biological. I’ve learned that no matter how good a friend is, they’re going to hurt you every once in a while, and you must forgive them for that. I’ve learned that it isn’t always enough to be forgiven by others, sometimes you just have to learn to forgive yourself. I’ve learned that no matter how bad your heart is broken, the world doesn’t stop for your grief. I’ve learned that our background and circumstances may have influenced who we are, but we are responsible for who we become. I’ve learned that sometimes when my friends fight, I’m forced to choose sides even if I don’t want to. I’ve learned that just because two people argue, it doesn’t mean they don’t love eachother. And just because they argue, it doesn’t mean they do. I’ve learned that sometimes you have to put the individual ahead of their actions. I’ve learned that it takes years to build up trust and only seconds to destroy it. I’ve learned that we don’t have to change friends if we understand friends change. I’ve learned that if you don’t want to forget something, stick it in your under- wear drawer. I’ve learned that you shouldn’t be so eager to find out a secret, it could change your life forever. I’ve learned that the clothes I like best are the ones with the most holes in them. I’ve learned that it’s not what you have in your life, but who you have in your life that counts. I’ve learned that two people can look at the exact same thing and see something totally different. I’ve learned that you can not make someone love you, all you can do is be someone who can be loved. The rest is up to them. I’ve learned that there are many ways of falling & staying in love. I’ve learned that no matter the consequences, those who are honest with themselves get farther in life. I’ve learned that many things can be powered by the mind; the trick is self- control. I’ve learned that no matter how many friends you have, if you are their pillar, you will feel lonely and lost at the times you need them most. I’ve learned that your life can be changed in a matter of hours by people who don’t even know you. I’ve learned that even when you think you have no more to give, when a friend cries out to you, you will find the strength to give. I’ve learned that writing, as well as talking, can erase emotional pains. I’ve learned that the people you care about most in life are taken from you too soon. I’ve learned that although the word “love” can have many different meanings, it loses value when overly used. I’ve learned that it’s hard to draw the line between being nice and not hurting people’s feelings and standing up for what you believe. I’ve learned who I am & what I’m about.
My heart stopped. It just stopped beating. And for the first time in my life, I had that feeling. You know, like the world is moving all around you, all beneath you, all inside you, and you're floating. Floating in midair. And the only thing keeping you from drifting away is the other persons eyes. They're connected to yours by some invisible physical force, and they hold you fast while the rest of the world swirls and twirls and falls completely away.
I remember one morning getting up at dawn, there was such a sense of possibility. You know that feeling? And I remember thinking to myself, so, this is the beginning of happiness. This is where it starts. And of course there will always be more. It never occurred to me it wasn't the beginning. It was happiness. It was the moment. Right then.
Sometimes you just want to put other peoples happiness before yours... Because you love them. Because they deserve it. Sometimes you want to go out of your way for people just because you know it's important that they get a chance to smile once in a while.

Count Your Blessings

In the last month or so, all the broken pieces from my life are starting to come together again. My dad is home! We got our apartment, and i was able to pay for purlas surgery. I've just been soo happy i could burst. I wake up each morning thanking God that he hears my thoughts and prayers and knows my heart. I have so much to be genuinely thankful for. He's blessed me with so many amazing things and has answered countless numbers of prayers. :)) And i know He's very sneaky but i love it :)) (haha The MAINE Jesus? seriously?! Did NOT see that one comin!! ....and 112 vans in less then an hour and a half?!! i mean c'mon! lol) but anyways i'm just glad i'm getting in the right mindset...because it's been awhile when i actually wanted get out of bed and LIVE. WAKE UP, you know? I'm loving my life right now, and i know it's just going to get better from here. As long as i have my family, my TRUE pals, and God to back me up i know in the end everything is gonna be 100% ok and i don't have to fear anything.
Yeah i'm gonna have my dark days...probably always will...but it's something i'm trying to change.

p.s. shasta...we've been friends since your sophomore and my junior year. We have been on and off, but like you said every time we hang out again, it's like we pick up right where we left off. It's never awkward or weird :)) I'm glad we started to hang out again, like OLD times!! and i know we're going on our fourth year pretty soon, and as much as i know about you, you don't know half as much about me. But i genuinely mean this when i say it: It's not you, it's me! haha i'm queer. but seriously though even though i don't tell you everything, you still read me like a fucking book and you legitimately care about how i'm feeling deep THE FUCK down!! And that's scary to me. I'm not used to that and you know this. But it's something that i honestly need to work on. You're my actual pal and i love you inside and out. (especially out, when i'm looking at you from behind :)) But also on the inside because even when i have my temper tantrums, which is pretty often, you don't care. You blow it off because you know i'm just acting like a complete pussy. Ive probably broken every rule in the book in our friendship, but you still stuck with me and looked passed my flaws..and you NEVER EVER gave up on me!! :)) And that is why i thank God that He put you in my life. You're the one that's gonna get to me, lol i promise you. LOVE YOU!!
xx

Everyone says love hurts, but that is not true. Loneliness hurts. Rejection hurts. Losing someone hurts. Envy hurts. Everyone gets these things confused with love, but in reality, love is the only thing in this world that covers up all pain and makes someone feel wonderful again. Love is the only thing in this world that does not hurt.

we are not racists. we promise.

*Ash: Ok : ) lol yeah since my brother and sister are both here with their kids my sister, heather, decided to come for the weekend with her baby so all of them are here together.

WAKE UP!

i love it when people think that they are acting suuper slick and are super badass when in reality they don’t know what end is up and they are just really idiotic. Yeah, i may not be the coolest kid in town but at least i have a fucking grip on reality.

i keep seeing this boy that looks exactly like chris drew. he’s young, and kinda nerdy in a cute sorta way of course.

Why i love you:

you are charming and funny. you tell me things that make me laugh, even when you don’t even try. you tell me things that make me think. you are insightful and appreciative and optimistic even if it annoys me a little. you are faithful. your thoughts are fascinating and bright. you are caring, kind, thoughtful and passionate. you are endearing and down to earth you are breath of fresh air. you are so boss and badass. you love me and i love you and that is enough. i could be talking about anyone here, but i’m talking about you. i’m thinking about you. p.s. i like that we have fights about trivial things like music and that you listen to me when i talk about balloons, squirrels, and sunsets.

FAIL!

Secret #8361.)

Lately you've been on my mind constantly. Something inside of myself is telling me to hold on, and honestly I thought I had already let go of you long ago. I told myself; why keep holding onto this idea that may only play out right in my head? Why do something that may only end up hurting me? But honestly, I miss you and for the first time in my life I'm willing to take that risk.

i hate admitting this to myself….

Skins:

*Sid: I mean what would you do if.. if everything's so fucked up and you... you just don't know what to do?
*Cassie: I stop eating until they take me to the hospital.

All the wants and all the needs, oh i don't want to need at all

You've got to accept the fact that life isn't a fairy tale, things aren't always happily ever after. Things like magic wishes, Prince Charming and true love don't happen in real life. Magic wishes come from money, Prince Charming a shallow idiot with a bad haircut and overpriced clothes. And true love? Ha, true love is one-sided, Ace. You love her, she loves someone else. She loves you, you love someone else. Never quite works out does it? So you end up with some actor pretending to be your true love. Real considerate of someone to let you know reality was like that before being thrown into it. 'If you wish, it'll happen.' Well, wish in one hand and crap in the other and see which one fills up faster. Welcome to reality. Enjoy your stay.

Secret #8226.)

I dream about you every night. When I'm awake and my mind drifts, it's to thoughts of you. This must mean I still love you.

Bowie appeared in my dream last night,

















but nothing like this.

My dreams are way to big for this town and I need to find a way out of this comedown.

For the longest time i've always been the one to ride shotgun in the passenger seat. I've never been the driver. I need to start taking charge of my own life. I can't keep relying on others to get things done. If i want something done right i better do it myself or else i'm never gonna be able to do what i wanna do and go where i wanna go. I always want to involve everyone and share my dreams with them but sooner or later i realize we all have very different dreams. That's exactly my problem. I need to fix that because this whole routine is tearing me down and wearing me out.

Labels: , , , ,

Secret #8181.)

I miss talking to you everyday, staying up late for each other, and being able to tell you everything. I wonder if you still think about me, like I do. I wish you would just tell me how you feel.

They say what doesn't kill the soul will make it stronger, but you can be a stonehearted man.

i constantly push people away. not even because i want attention and want to be chased after, in fact quite the opposite…because people are annoying. i’m in this phase where i like being alone, and i’m not looking to get out of it any time soon.

We tried so hard to understand and reason But in that one moment, I gave my heart away.

I'll hold whatever i'm feeling about you in, and pretend that i don't care that you have a girlfriend. Pretend were only friends and nothing ever more. Pretend that i'm happy for you and her.

Friday, August 7, 2009

i loved this book. i can't wait for the movie to come out :)

AND THEN you wake up and you’re awake and where are you? You’re in your bed, on your sofa, on the floor, wherever you are. You’re awake though, with the feeling of that dream still sitting lightly against your chest. You look around, trying to take everything in. You think of her. You think of where you’ve been. You think, “Where the fuck did the last year of my life go?”

Secret #8079.)

I never think I'm good enough for anyone. I hope you're happy with you're new girlfriend, even though she looks like a duck on steroids with vampire teeth. I'll just sit here and pretend like it doesn't bother me at all.

10 Simple Ways To A Happier You

1. Start With The Basics: Some people believe that in order to be happy and healthy they must start big with complicated yoga classes, answering deep questions of self-identity, etc. In reality, getting a good amount of sleep every night could immediately result in instant energized happiness.

2. Don’t Go To Sleep Angry: You’ll never know what you’ll regret from falling asleep angry. Vent as much as possible before bedtime because nothing is worst then a sleepless night and a groggy morning.

3. Fake It: One of the more complicated ways to happiness. While it’s not a good “everyday” way to avoid negative energy, it could work for simple tasks. Believing that you are happy could result into actual happiness. Forcing a good mood will attract positive vibes and happiness will soon find its way to you.

4. Tackle New Hobbies: People are stimulated by accomplishing complicated tasks. People who try new things are bound to be more happier than people who stick to familiar routines.

5. Don’t “Treat” Unhappiness: Smoking, drinking, or eating is a wonderful way to become happy…for a minute or two. However, the after effect could possibly result in guilt and or twice the amount of unhappiness as before.

6. Buy Some Happiness: It is fact that money can’t buy happiness but it definitely can bring a smile. Purchasing for yourself can result in “satisfied” happiness. Always look for items that can make your life better or easier.

7. Don’t Insist On The Best: There are two types of decision makers. Satisfiers (yes, satisfiers) make a decision once their criteria are met. When they find the hotel or the pasta sauce that has the qualities they want, they’re satisfied. Maximizers want to make the best possible decision. Even if they see a bicycle or a backpack that meets their requirements, they can’t make a decision until they’ve examined every option. Satisfiers tend to be happier than maximizers. Maximizers expend more time and energy reaching decisions, and they’re often anxious about their choices. Sometimes good enough is good enough.

8. Exercise To Boost Energy: Exercise is one of the most dependable mood-boosters. Even a 10-minute walk can brighten anyone’s outlook.

9. Stop Nagging: A simple way to happiness is to stop nagging. You’ll find that life becomes easier when you don’t hear the sound of your own voice all the time.

10. Take Action: Some people assume happiness is mostly a matter of inborn temperament: You’re born an Eeyore or a Tigger, and that’s that. Although it’s true that genetics play a big role, about 40 percent of your happiness level is within your control. Taking time to reflect, and conscious steps to make your life happier, really does work.

She’s one of those girls who doesn’t know what she’s doing, but she wants to know everything will be worth it one day. She isn’t amazing at one thing, just good at a lot of things, and thats all she’ll ever be. She wishes she could be different, but she lives her life to the fullest anyway. All she truly needs is love to keep her sane. She looks at her world like its a book, with pages being read everyday. She’s her own worst enemy and hardest critic. She knows she has flaws and tries to accept them, even though she knows she never fully will. More than anything, though, she just wants to make a difference one day, and she wants someone to remember her name.

I love you, don't ever fucking question that.

Love isn’t about the romantic nights or gifts. It isn’t about fireworks going off around you when you have that first real kiss. Love isn’t about kissing in the rain and dancing beneath the stars. It isn’t about the big moments or the big surprises. Love is not a fairytale. Love is about still having the butterflies after years. It’s about the second looks and laying in bed wide awake, all night, because you can’t go to sleep mad at each other. It’s about being willing to sacrifice, literally, everything for someone, just because you care so deeply for them. It’s not about buying them gifts, but it’s about leaving them little presents here and there, just to remind them that you are constantly thinking about them. Love is about all of the little things, that add up to really big things. Love is rare and special, but should not be treated as if it will break. Love needs to be thrown around and beat up a little bit, worn in, but not worn down. Love needs to be a comfortable feeling, a place to go when no one else in the world can relate. A safe place, where you know that no matter how ugly you look or how angry you are, you will still be loved.

Anything less than mad, passionate, extraordinary love is a waste of time.

There are too many mediocre things in life to deal with, and love shouldn’t be one of them. If you pick me a flower, I’ll wear it in my hair. I’ll stash little notes for you where you least expect them. I don’t have many firsts left.. but I’d like someone who I could offer all of my lasts. We’ll make history together. I’ll wait for you even if you’re late – and I won’t complain about it. Kindness to cashiers, valets, waiters and maddeningly slow postal clerks who would try the patience of Gandhi is a must. I will feel safe and most at peace in your arms. When you’re counting aloud, I will try and mess you up. I find you magically delicious. I will let you be right when it doesn’t really matter. I’ll giggle when you show off and I know it’s just for me. I’ll hold your coffee while you drive. I can build a fire without burning the house down. If you wash the car with me – I promise to wear a white t-shirt for you. I‘ll hide around corners and try to scare you in the middle of the night.. of course, I’ll end up scaring myself and you’ll have to calm me down. I can change a flat tire and my own oil. It’s the simple things you do that make me swoon the most. I love it when you sing to me. I’ll make you mickey mouse pancakes. Sleeping in has a whole new meaning now that we’re doing it together. I’ll cover you up and kiss your forehead when you fall asleep watching tv. I won’t swear around your family or make you wear silly sweaters at my family’s during Christmas. I’ll grant you three wishes. I’ll make you laugh. I’ll stare in wonder with you at that hot chick with the great rack. I will marvel at your strength. I’ll take care of you when you’re sick. I give a kick ass massage. I think it’s hot when you come home all dirty from playing or working hard. My heart will skip every time you walk through the door. My kisses will take your breath away – seriously. I’ll giggle if you leave your socks on in bed. My quirks and oddities have been deemed ‘adorable’ and I will love you more everyday for all of yours. I’ll hold you when you need it. I will give you space when you need it. I will let you be you. You’ll sleep better when I’m next to you. I’ll thank you every time you open a door for me. I’ll never give you shit in front of your friends. I won’t ever let you leave for work in the morning without your lunch and a passionate kiss. We can watch your movie first. I’ll clean the house perfectly every time your mom comes by. I like horror movies only when you’re with me and only as long as you hold me close. I don’t litter. I love when you pull me down to sit on your lap. I love it when you lay your head on my chest in bed. I can be ready (shower and all) in half an hour. I’ll look cute as hell in your shirt in the morning. I can balance a checkbook. I can never turn down a challenge. I’ll fit perfectly in your arms. I’ll understand if you get jealous – and do my best to show you that you have no reason. Hand-written love notes will get you laid every time. I can totally keep a secret. I’m pretty damn funny and will do anything to make you laugh. You will always look hot to me in the morning. I think it’s cute when you eat off my plate. When you’re sleeping, I’ll try to stay quiet. I’ll call when I say I will. Treat me like a woman and I’ll treat you like a man. To clarify: I’m not looking for a savior, a fix-up project, or anything of that sort. I’m looking for a man who quite simply adds something extraordinary and special to my life. And I to him. A fair exchange, an amazing mind, body and soul connection and a place to build something magnificent.

do you ever get that feeling..

where you don’t want to talk to anybody? you don’t want to smile, and you don’t want to fake being happy, but at the same time you don’t know exactly what is wrong either. there isn’t a way to explain it to someone who doesn’t already understand. if you could want anything in the world it would to be alone. people have stopped being comforting..and being alone never was. at least when your alone no one constantly asks you what is wrong and there isn’t anyone who won’t take ‘i don’t know’ for an answer. you feel the way you do just because. you hope the feeling will pass soon and that you will be able to be yourself again. but until then all you can do is wait.

i’m there.

I don't like seeing sad people

I just feel so totally helpless around them cause I know there is almost nothing that I can say or do to make them see how great this world really is. I just want to slap them and yell at them. I don’t want them to waste their lives being sad. I wasted so much of my life being sad, now that I’m not, I’m trying to make up all the lost times. Don’t let it your feelings get in the way of doing something fun, of doing something for yourself, or doing something new. Don’t hold back. People don’t hate you (and even if the ones around you do, there are 6 billion other people that would love to meet you). You have two arms and two legs (most likely), there are people who don’t and would love to have your body, so stop hating it. And for those of you who think your morbidly obese and stopped eating, you have no idea what you are missing. Food is probably one of my favorite things in the world. You’d be surprised how it can change your mood. And it takes time, live life day by day. Find someone to help you through it. Count the days breathe by breathe. Just by reading this, you survived probably 15 breathes, which if you think about it, is amazing. You are alive and living in the year 2009. The people that lived in the 1900 would kill to be where you are right now with your fancy ipod and internet and indoor plumbing and starbucks. Always look on the bright side of things.

I sang what used to be “our song” really loudly to an empty house this morning. I don’t know if it helped me move on or if it made me miss you more. But I miss you in all the wrong ways.
