Be so busy loving your own life that you have no time for hate, regret or fear.

A monumental epiphany in my life...

I have been faced with some incredible hardships these past couple of years... I was in a(n abusive) relationship that made me an empty shell of who I thought I was. Even who I was wasn't who I am or will be, but I digress. He made me believe I was a worthless ugly person and everything bad that happened to him, myself, in the world, was my fault. And the sad truth is that I believed him. Having someone you love so much that you bend and break to ensure their happiness who doesn't appreciate or respect you is one of the worst things that can happen to someone. He betrayed me and broke me by not choosing me, cheating on me, and leaving me in the mess he created. In this same time period, I had lost every friend I made here, lost my job, lost my home. Don't feel sorry for me, or pity me (if you're actually reading this) because it changed me; it hardened me, yes, but it softened me too. I choose to be happy. I choose to live a life I'm content with. I choose me (whoever that is.) I dropped out of school this year to do just that...find who I REALLY am and find out what makes me happy. Things still aren't going the way I hoped they would, but regardless I choose to be happy. I believe in due time life will disclose the plans in works, but I will never give up choosing to be happy. If you're not happy, then what's the point?

“When you lose someone who’s your home, you know, you’re only home in the world. And when that happens you think, oh fuck I should have had a back-up home. Another person, a place, a thing, something to make me feel safe, and I don’t have that. And now I’m lost.”

The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman (2013) dir. Fredrick Bond

When students hold their value in standardized test scores and whether they're a failure because they failed then there's something wrong with the system. When students are terrified of sitting through class because they're more scared of being wrong than wanting to learn then there's something wrong with the system. When students cry and shake and don't sleep or eat due to the stress of school then there's something wrong with the system. We do not need to add more to the curriculum. We do not need to add more standardized tests. We do not need to prescribe medications. We do not need to look down on those who are struggling. We need to stand up and make a change. Let's stop romanticizing an ideal education and go back to kids actually yearning to learn; not fucking dreading it.

i think, autumn is the poet of all seasons. fallen leaves upon flaming earth. the beauty in setting fire to the things we can no  longer hold onto.

Some nights I wish I could go back in life. Not to change shit, just to feel a couple things twice.
