Highs and lows.

This past week has just been a whirlwind for me.  I have laughed and cried.  I've had highs and low, low, lows.  I have been happy and sad.  I literally have been every emotion out there this past week.  It sucks.  It gets exhausting.  The worst part is that every time I think I am fine something happens and BAM I'm not.  Sometimes I wish I did not feel things; that life would be so much simpler that way.  Then I remember something: I am alive.  How do I know this?  Cause I feel things.  They remind me that I care.  That every time I laugh or I cry it means that I am alive and can feel.  While I admit that the whole crying/sad part is not my favorite I have to overlook that because the laughing/happy part is awesome.  So when you are feeling down, do not stay there.  Remind yourself that yeah, right now you are upset but that will not last forever.  You will laugh again.  You will cry again.  But next time they will be tears of joy.  So just fight the heartbreak, the sadness, the hurt.  Things will get better.  They always do.

The fight.

You know that feeling?

When you're just waiting.

Waiting to get home, into your room, 

close the door, fall into bed,

and just let everything out that you kept in all day.

That feeling of both relief and depression.

Nothing is wrong.

But nothing is right either.

And you're tired.

Tired of everything, tired of nothing.

And you just want someone to

be there and tell you it's okay.

But no one's going to be there.

And you know you have to be strong

for yourself, because no one can fix you.

Bu you're tired of waiting.

Tired of having to be the one to fix yourself and everyone else.

Tired of being strong.

And for once, you just want it to be easy.

To be simple.  To be helped.  To be saved.

But you know you won't be.

But you're still hoping.

And you're still wishing.

And you're still staying strong and fighting,

with tears in your eyes.

You're fighting.

Just a little bit longer.

So yay, it's Friday!  Finally.  Just a few hour stands between you and the weekend.  You can go home and relax or go out and have fun.  Or do both, you have three days to do anything.  Shop, sleep, eat, take an adventure.  Basically do whatever you want because it is your time.  But yeah, just a few hours stands between you and the best weekend of your life.  So for now stretch out those muscles, eat a donut, and laugh at what I posted.  This will help you make it to the weekend.  I promise!

Get up and get out there.

Do you ever want to work out but you do not have the motivation to do it?  When you are in class you are all like "Yeah when I get out I'm going to go to the gym" and then once you get out your all like "Damn I could go for a burrito now."  Yeah I am with you, and frankly right now I want a burrito.  But guess what?  You need to get up and do this.  Just picture how great you will feel eating after you go for a run or a jog or even a walk.  I just recently started to work out.  I figured I should focus myself into something good.  I would always see fit people and be like "I wanna be like them!"  Well now I am on my way to being just like that.  I will admit, at first it sucks.  The hardest part is getting up and doing it.  But once you do, throw on the new episode of New Girl and just start working out.  You will feel sore for a while but that just means it is working.  Let me tell you nothing feels as good as accomplishing a workout.  So for now, you will have to fight the pain because being a healthy, fit you will be worth it in the end!!

Be who you want to be.

You eat, you're fat.  You don't eat, you're a freak.  You drink, you're an alcoholic.  You don't drink, you're a wimp.  You read, you're a nerd.  You don't read, you're stupid.  You tell a secret, you're an attention seeker.  You don't tell a secret, you're still an attention seeker.  You let someone in, you're easy.  You don't let someone in, you're too uptight.  You smoke, you think you're cool.  You don't smoke, you're a loser.  You've had sex, you're a whore.  You haven't had sex, you're a freaking little bitch.  You wear makeup, you're a slag.  You don't wear makeup, you're ugly.  You cannot please anyone.  Ever.  So stop and just be who you want to be.  Everyone else does not matter.

Remember.

As you grow up, you will learn that even the one person that wasn't ever supposed to let you down probably will.  You will have your heart broken probably more then once and it will be harder every time.  You'll break hearts too, so remember how it felt when yours was broken.  You'll fight with your best friend.  You'll blame a new love for things an old one did.  You'll cry because time is passing too fast, and you'll eventually lose someone you love.  So take too many pictures, laugh too much, and love like you've never been hurt because every sixty seconds you spend upset is a minute of happiness you'll never get back.  Don't be afraid that your life will end, be afraid that it will never begin.

Humor for the heart.

It's Monday. The day is long and it is the beginning of the week.  Maybe today is the worst day ever.  Maybe it is not.  Either way, you do not want to start the week off upset.  That will put you in a mood that ruins your week.  Maybe what you need is just a little humor, a little laughter, a little smile.  Even if you only smile for 5 minutes, that is five minutes where you are not upset and sad.  Cause I do not want anyone to start the week off upset!  Here are some funny things to give you AT LEAST 5 minutes of giggles.  I hope this makes your a day a little better, a little brighter, and a little more bearable.
