Heroically Lost, Heroically Found

Why, hello there! :] My name's Sitara. I believe in happily ever afters, the healing powers of hearty laughter, and the concept of hakuna matata. This blog serves as my personal multi-media journal. Here, I will share with you my view of the world through photos, music, videos, and writing. Hopefully, you will find inspiration in some of the things I post here! <3

hey Tumblr, long time no see! it's been ages. not sure if i'll ever really go back to using this blog like i once did, but i definitely miss this community. i miss the people i've met and the friends i've made. Tumblr was my lifeline throughout my struggle with depression, and i'm doing a lot better now. i can't thank my mutuals enough for all the support and camaraderie. i still remain in contact with a bunch of you via other social media, so i still feel connected :) love you all! ❤️ goodbye for now!

Your mind will believe comforting lies while also knowing the painful truths that make those lies necessary. And your mind will punish you for believing both.

“Hillary lies about things” cannot be your justification for voting for Donald Trump. This man has been caught in numerous lies this week alone. He lies in every debate, interview, appearance, tweet, etc.

Heartwarming Pics Of Children Who Were Just Adopted

[somethingratchet]

I love adoption stories. My mom adopted 3 kids and she never let us or anybody else make a difference out of the 6 of us. My biological brother had the same name as my adopted brother and people could not understand why my mom would name 2 sons in succession, Johnny. But we wouldn’t explain it. Adopt kids. Make it normal. Not the the thing u do simply when u cant.

^^^^ THAT PERSON UP THERE

please normalize the fuck out of adoption, i’ve given speeches and lectures and written papers about all the misconceptions and fears and rumors that plague the issues of adoption and make this perfectly normal, healthy, happy thing a rare occurrence in our society and that is sad and wrong

adoption is not “giving up” on a child, adoption is not a last resort, adoption is not just for certain types of families

please normalize adoption

[somethingsohappily-deactivated2]

Also please normalize adopting teenagers. I’m not saying you shouldn’t adopt young children and babies, but there are so many teens out there that just don’t get adopted because of their age. So please normalize adopting teens!

I hate adding on to long posts, but as someone who spent time in foster care growing up I have to chime in. Foster parents are amazing, and so are adoptive parents. My foster parents, brothers and sisters made a huge impact on who I am. Please adopt. Adopted kids are not worth less than blood relations. Stop that line of thought.

[mynameisnotyellowbone]

Please adopt and foster teenagers! So many teenagers end up in group homes because there aren’t foster parents willing to foster or adopt them.

Both CNN and MSNBC aired Michelle Obama’s full speech, but apparently it was too true for Fox News.
