Robert Downey, Jr. consoles a young boy in tears because Iron Man isn’t in his costume.

… I don’t know who looks more distraught: Downey or the kid

I'm__________.

Yeah. I'm lost. thought getting away to a new place would cure that, but the fact is, I'm trying to get away from something that's internal. So no matter where I go, it could be the moon practically and I will still be lost. I'm constantly in a daze going back and forth, trying to be optimistic and happy, then not knowing what I want. I'm pissed. I don't understand how certain people have what they have or are getting what they want, when they're just sucky people. I'm pissed because I feel like I try so hard and they just get handed life. I got some of them to where they are today and they knnoooow it. Or so they act oblivious. and I don't receive an ounce of acknowledgement. Just lies and propoganda. I'm pissed that I was the stepping stool or the doormat you used to wipe your feet off on. I'm so glad your happy, please continue on blindly hurting peoples feelings; it's wonderful. I'm lonely. How can I have so many people who love and support me, yet I still feel like I'm trying to fill some void. I have so many friends and am doing so many things, but still feel like it's just me. Why am I laying in possibly the best city ever, but my chest feels heavy? I'm anxious. I hate waiting for things to happen, but right now I literally have to. and waiting is destroying me. I'm scared. That I'm being deceived And really I have every right to be this way. Scared that I'm being tricked into believing something will happen or that nothing is happening, but how do I actually know. Because I never really knew anyways. I'm vulnerable. and I just need some inspiration. I need to consistently feel alive, not just at random times. but most importantly, I'm surviving. and that's what I will keep doing. Because in the midst of all these feelings, I'm moving forward. and a little progress is always better than none.

Respect your efforts, respect yourself. Self-respect leads to self-discipline. When you have both firmly under your belt, that’s real power.

The Time.

I think I need to disconnect for a little while. Feel the fresh salty air of ocean, become blinded by the beaming sun. To stare into the sky and feel the warmth of the sun beaming down on glowing skin and the cool breeze bringing life to those wispy strands. I think it's time to disconnect. To look out at the distant shimmering waves and imagine the possibilities for one's own self. To stop trying to create the perfect life in your head, but just living and letting it take its course. Let it go. And not just say it, but mean it. It's time to disconnect. It's like a growth on your soul, a cancer of some sort. The feeling slowly sinks into your heart and deteriorates your hope. You have the cure. You are the cure. YOU make the change and only you have the power to assure it can happen. Yes, it's painful but there is so much more on the other side. See, you are too beautiful, too precious to let this digress your strength. You are too lovely to allow such a position to take precedence. So disconnect. Find your voice again. Make decisions own your own being. Don't plan ahead for plurality. Because it is a singular life every individual must live. Yes, that big heart wants to give, but this time it needs to give to an internal recipient. To the little girl with bright eyes, who's becoming something great. It's time. So, as you stand on gazing into the mass of innovation and beauty, know that it will all make sense someday. And during this moment that you are disconnecting with an era, you a connecting with the rest of your life.
