What's on your mind?
Friday, July 8, 2011 @ 12:53 PM

I'm curious. I want to know what you're thinking about, what you like, what you don't like, what song you listen to the most, what you ate for breakfast, and most importantly, if I ever cross your mind. Even if it's just for a split second. It'd be great if I could read your mind, but since I can't, I want to hear it from you. Do me a favor and don't sugar coat anything. I want to hear your truth, no matter how blunt and raw it is. I want to hear your thoughts, uncensored and unedited.

Just take the time to listen.
@ 12:52 PM

Everyone is fighting a battle of their own. Day in and day out. Everyone keeps a secret which they will protect with their very lives. We pass the judgment on each other, while drawing conclusions based off what we think we know. Truth is, we don’t know a thing. The surface is a lie, and yet its the surface that we use to put together these opinions we have of another. If we were to take a step back for a moment, we could realize that things aren’t what they appear to be. A smile can mask away years of tears and frowns. Confidence could be a cover up for low self esteem. Bold actions and words could hide your fears. And the people that appear to have everything under control are habitually the ones that are the most terrified. So remember these things before you judge one or before you speak ill of another. We all will struggle, and continue to have our secrets. Nobody is as collected as they make themselves out to be you see.

LIFE ISN'T ALWAYS ABOUT ME, SO I MUST LEARN HOW TO LOVE OTHERS.
Monday, May 2, 2011 @ 6:53 PM

I can’t have a new life, I can only start over.
I can’t erase the past, I can only learn from it.
I don’t know when I’m going to mess up, but I can always avoid getting in trouble.
I don’t know when I’m going to get hurt, that’s why they tell me to watch out.
I don’t know what other people are thinking, so I mind my own business.
I don’t like complication, I keep everything at its simplest.
I don’t always get what I want, that’s when I learn to be satisfied with what I’ve got.
I’m not the smartest person in the world, but it doesn’t hurt me to learn something new.

Labels are an ugly form of prejudice. Break down the word prejudice and you'll get pre-judge. When you label someone, you are pre-judging them; that means making conclusions about someone without knowing them. I don't know about you, but I can't stand it when I'm unfairly judged by someone who doesn't know a thing about me.

People are too complex to be neatly shelved in to a category like clothing in a department store, as if there were only a handful of different types of people in the world instead of millions of unique individuals.

If you've been falsely labeled, you can live with it. The real danger comes when you start to believe the labels yourself. Just remember: You are not your labels.

Emptiness.
@ 7:44 PM

Lately, I've been feeling like there's a vacant space in my heart that grows as days pass by. Not the empty feeling that someone special can fill, but the empty feeling of carelessness. The need to care about everyone becomes absent and all I feel is simply sheer coldness. I guess I'm just starting to not give a damn.

YOU DON’T KNOW HOW MY HEART SINKS WHEN I KNOW YOU’RE TALKING TO A GIRL.
Friday, January 7, 2011 @ 7:13 PM

I’m not sure if that’s out of jealousy, or insecurity.
Maybe even a mixture of both.

Failure
@ 7:10 PM

Let's face it, nobody likes to lose. Whether it's tryouts for the school talent show or losing at the 'game of love', that momentary sting of being on the losing end is felt by many of us. It shouldn't hurt. After all, it's only a temporary setback.. There will be other talent shows and you'll eventually find someone new to crush on, right? Not so with a vast number of people. It hurts a lot.

The experience of failing is often so humiliating, so devastating, that some people will never again attempt anything along similar lines. Why? Because they have a fear of failing. They fear being laughed at. They fear being exposed and they're concerned about what others are saying/thinking about them.

The thought of losing in front of others is enough to keep them spinning in the same familiar pattern of not doing things. I have a huge fear of failing. Many people hide their talents and strengths-the very things that make them special-just to blend into the crowd unnoticed. People should stop doing that. They should try to be as special as they can be.

Betrayal
@ 7:08 PM

A guy truly loved a girl with all his heart. He was deeply in love with her. He wasn't going to let her go. He thought she felt the same. He even dreamed about having a future with her. She made him feel like he had the world. He thought she was the one.

He thought he could trust her. He gave her space, he didn't ask who she talked to, what she did, who she was with, because he loved her. He believed trust = love. He gave her freedom.

However, the girl took advantage of this kind and sensitive guy. It turns out she had a back up guy. Left him, without thinking about how much pain she caused him. She thought he would be alright.

Nothing's going to be alright.

How can you lead someone on for such a long time, and finally drop them cold and hard. He's broken. His heart's shattered. He could have given you the whole world, you just never gave him a chance. He gave you the ability to do whatever you want, because he trusted you. He loved you. You misused it. He gave you his heart. And you crushed it.

What makes me mad about remembering the past
@ 7:08 PM

Is that you replay it in your mind over and over again, and the more you think about it, the more you wish you did something differently. It’s funny that if your timing was off by one minute, or if you didn’t say something you meant to say, or if you weren’t where you were at the time, your story would probably not be the way it is now. The littlest things can change everything, and that’s what makes me so mad. If I didn’t do a lot of the things I did, I know that I wouldn’t be sitting here typing this up. What makes it even harder is that I know exactly what I would change if I could, but I can’t, so that’s that.

Consistency.
@ 7:01 PM

For some (like myself), it’s human to test others. It’s human to push others—to push their limits and to cross their boundaries. It’s this natural wall we build quickly and most unaware. Why? The fact of the matter is, the more they’re willing to endure and their ability to somehow find the strength to always come back leaves an impact; a sense of immediate security. This safe feeling allows us to give more in return, again most unaware. Above all, we come to slowly realize that wanting them in our lives is no longer an option, it becomes a dying priority.

It’s falling and believing. It’s hoping and trusting. We no longer want them in our lives, instead, we need them in our lives—because very rarely do most people show this kind of endless devotion and commitment.

The truth
Sunday, December 19, 2010 @ 9:42 PM

There's a point in your life when you know who stays forever, and who's just around for a while. People change, but so do you. Sometimes for the best, and sometimes for the worst. Bad things happen to everyone, you're not in it alone. People lie, and some people just don't care how you feel. Your heart beats, no matter how much pain you're in. Everything will be okay eventually. There are always people in your life that just make your day, no matter the miles. I know about distance, I've been dealing with it all my life, so don't tell me it's easy, because it's not. But it's worth it. I'd rather keep in touch with the people I love, than just drop it and forget about it. You don't forget the ones you love. It just doesn't work like that. Give it all you've got and live your life to the fullest. People would kill to be you, have what you have; someone always has it worse off than you, but that doesn't mean that your pain doesn't count.
