We're blaming society, yet we are society. So to make it a better place, we must change ourselves first.

What will you do when something stops you?
What will you say to the world?
What will you be when it all comes crashing down on you?
What would you do if you lost your beauty?
How would you deal with the light?
How would you feel if nobody chased you?
What if it happened tonight?
How would you cope if the world decided to make you suffer for all that you were?
How could you dance if no-one was watching and you couldn't even get off the floor?
What would you do if you couldn't even feel, not even pitiful pain?
How would you deal with the empty decisions, eating away at the days?

NCOD

If you did know it's National Coming Out Day. I'm Catholic and growing up I was always told that God doesn't like gays, so we shouldn't either. But I'm here to set my story straight. I LOVE EVERYONE! No matter if you gay straight, purple, orange or dinosaur I don't care. A teacher last set my class straight. Love the person, hate the action. But I wasn't put I wasn't put on this earth to judge, I was put here to love everyone. If you were put here to love too, let me know. I love you, thanks for taking time to read this, I'd give you a hug but I am a post on the internet (JK **INTERNET HUG**) Bye!!

Until Everyman is free we are all slaves.

Perception.

I actually titled this one. Perception: The ability to see, hear, or become aware of something through the senses. Life is all about perception. Now some of you may disagree with that, but that's your perception of life. My point is that what one person thinks could be different from another person. But another important factor is to know that no one is wrong in what they perceive. For example, there's this girl at my school who's a foreign exchange student and this other girl who's a little snooty. Now the foreign exchange student saw her and her friends (even though they hate each other) laughing and she thought they were laughing at her, that was her perception. The girl claimed she wasn't and told the foreign exchange student to shut up. Here's more perception, I thought the girl was being snobby and could have handled it a little better, a little nicer, which I told her. She, in turn, told me to shut up too. Which led the teacher to lecture us about how different cultures perceive and think things differently than we do. Perception affects life in so many ways.   

Every Saint has a past and every Sinner has a future.

An idea can still change the world.

sometimes the hardest things in life are the things most worth doing.

Sometimes you have to stop thinking so much and just go where your heart takes you.

How you make others feel about themselves, says a lot about you.

Everyone is on their own  personal journey seeking their own truth.

Sometimes we confuse contentment with happiness. we can't be happy all the time, it's unrealistic, but contentment is something more. it is being aware that even if our circumstances are not ideal, we still have many of the things we need. especially when we see so many who go without the many things we take for granted. Don't drive for happiness any more, strive for contentment, and find it when you don't lose your focus...

Human have a knack for choosing precisely the things that are worst for them.

Whether you're gay, straight, purple, orange or dinosaur; I don't care.

The trouble with trouble is, it starts out as fun.

"Okay here's the dealio, I can be sad all I want but when you're sad that's not okay. I will use my body and shield you from the sad and pat you on the cheeks if you even attempt to be sad and tell you how great you are. You make the best spaghetti, your jokes are funny, you have a cute butt and the way you cry over your tv shows is really adorable. I won't stand for the sad!!!"  

Dedicated to my best friend whom I miss so very much, love you Florida!!

The truth is stranger than fiction.

I'm sorry but I'm gonna go a little off topic today. So usually I find a quote on Pinterest that I like and I post it here, but today I was scrolling through and I started reading the comments and one of them caught my eye. "When you know your worth, no one can ever make you feel worthless," but the comment made everything seem even more true. We say that we know who we are and we know our worth and that's common sense, but we often have to repeat it to ourselves over and over again. But why do we have to keep reminding ourselves? We may only be human, but that shouldn't make us limited to not knowing, not remembering that we are worth it, even if it is you who doesn't believe it. You don't have to be perfect, you just have to believe that who you are is good for yourself and no one else. If someone doesn't like who you are, whether it's on the inside or the outside don't change for them, don't let them manipulate you into changing yourself. You are amazing the way you are.

The thing about chaos, is that while it disturbs us, it too forces our hearts to roar in a way we secretly find magnificent.
