COMMON DEMONS.

-

Always do what you are afraid to do.

Ralph Waldo Emerson said it right. First of all, is it just me or does his middle name remind you of that finding game?? *awkward cough* Right! Back to the point. 
We, and when I say we I am sure I speak for all us teenagers , have fears. Whether they are rational or irrational is secondary but the point is fear is a common emotion that is highlighted (in neon) and blown up. It's safe to say fear is almost non existent until it is fed to you by an external source. Am I right? Yes? No? Okay. Let me give you an example. We all have stupid friends right? You know, those idiots who love feeding off of you getting frightened outta your wits? Yes. Shivered a little at that thought didn't ya? Oh well, these are irrational fears like being scared of a butterfly. I had one of my friends tell me that. Word. These are fears that are easy to overcome. I'm sure I don't need to elaborate.

But then comes these fears that change the way you look at things , the way you lead a life among other things. Some of  these are words that are just thrown around everyday without realizing these are actual problems to some people, their fears even. For example, insecurity. I'm sure most of you just like saying this word for the heck of it like , oh god you don't even know how insecure I am about wearing this shirt!😱. But do we even realize , that there are some people who actually don't even think they should be alive because they are insecure about their own being. They look at others wearing stuff or looking a certain way and wish they could be that way because they think they look like shit even when they are much prettier than those people. Their confidence is zilch. So anyone feeling this way , DON'T! It's not worth hurting yourself over, or starving yourself. This is something I learnt with experience:). Another fear I want to to talk or rather rant about, is the fear of not being good enough or wanting to fit in. Let me start off by saying, this is a shitty thing that us teenagers have started. You DON'T have to have a clique. Why can't everybody just be friends? Why do you have to have egos that are as big as a continent and pathetic standards that make people feel like crap? You just make others feel like they aren't good enough and make them do stupid things, not quite as stupid as you though, like starve or cut or kill themselves cause they couldn't be popular. We sometimes forget that these people are just like everyone else , with emotions like you. They hurt, they cry , they laugh and guess what? They PMS too. Cut them some slack. Help them feel wanted and cared for.

Everyone had demons they are fighting against. Yours may be small but you're still fighting aren't ya? :)

Love and be loved, right? 
I think I got that wrong, but oh well :P
P.S - Sorry for a rant that probably didn't make sense. But again, DEAL WITH IT! xD

P.P.S - You're all beautiful/handsome..or to sum that up..AMAZING. Just believe in yourself just a teensy bit why don't ya?

Also,
Bye! EAT SHIT!
I wuv you *insert heart and kissy emoji*

P.P.P.S- Listen to the darn monkey. :')
Lion King rules!

"It is a messed up thing to be unkind to yourself but it’s progress when you start realizing it." - a very dear friend. Last year invoked and forced a lot of change for me. I found myself up at odd times at night dissecting the things I believe in and really diving into the what’s, why’s, and how’s. Under different circumstances, I would never have had the time to think and reconsider the essence of the most personal things. Where I’m going with this strain of thought, is that we often undermine the value of very simple things in our life. We don't all live the same frequency of the enormous undertaking that is life and so we don’t quite value the same things similarly. So you spend a lot of time being unkind to yourself basing your life on someone else’s. And it isn’t the same. It will never be the same. So why do it? On the one hand, we can put all of the blame on society and it’s inhuman expectations on its very diverse human individuals. But way out, on the other hand...

I wish I could say I want to go back to being the crazy, stupid , gullible girl that I was a year ago. But I can't. Life works that way. It happens to you when you least expect it. It can be everyone you loved just shoving you away like you never mattered. It can be yourself , just taking the road to destroying the old you to build a new person you hardly recognize. It can be your dad who was supposed to be there forever , who was once a part of your everyday now ceasing to become an email wishing you a happy birthday. It can be you crying yourself to sleep every night for six months because you are in a place where you have no one and its slowly driving you to insanity. It can be you relapsing, going back to everything you did to yourself three years ago. It can be anything. But you won't want to go back to being who you were. Because you survived through all that dark and maybe just maybe lived just enough to be able to see the light at the end of the tunnel. That's life ...

"I'M-(PERFECT)"?

Long gone are the days where people used to look at inner beauty. Inner beauty today is a myth, a topic that is often ridiculed. As of today, when people look at someone, what they seek is perfection. We would be lying to ourselves and everyone else if we said otherwise.  Every girl seeks the perfect guy and every guy seeks to find his Ms.Right. Taking into account that everybody's sense of perfect is seemingly different. There still exist those rare people  who see past everything and look into the person inside. But most people just look for a thing of beauty not a person of beauty. There seems to be an alarming increase in people wanting other people to act or be or look a certain way. Why? I don't know. It is pretty ridiculous if you ask me but it is what it is. I had a friend , sorry , now acquaintance tell me once not long ago, " It's not that i don't like people. Its just that i expect people to be a certain way. You know my idea of perfection?". An...
