You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.

The truth is, unless you let go, unless you forgive yourself, unless you forgive the situation, unless you realize that the situation is over, you cannot move forward.

Broken but I smile

Hopeless but I move on

Waking like a child

Falling like a tear

Been wandering for miles

Wondering if it’s here

That something I’ve been missing

That something I once believed in

Can’t remember if I mentioned

Everything is just a dream

So maybe I’ll remember

Maybe I’ll feel something again

Maybe I’ll be better than this darkness

You claim I’ve been lost in

As I surrender to the moments

That never really mattered

Cuz everything is just a dream

A dream I never imagined

[whistfuldillusion]

I wonder what I may have done to deserve all that I’ve seen

Maybe there’s a part of me that I forget in this lively dream

But in the midst of this moment I’m lost believing I’m relevant

And if I am then where are you? Where have you gone?

How come you didn’t choose me ... when I rang ... or when I fell?

I am not here to be looked past ...

To remain unseen ... or perhaps I am

I can not help, I can not fight, these thoughts that crawl

From my skin at night

Oh am I here? Or am I lost?

I am not sure of what this costs but I must admit I’m beyond words

As they stumble out...into the dark beneath the clouds

Devoid of hope, love, and truth...namely you...

Oh I can’t count the times I’ve guessed far more than twice...far more I left

Along the road...I’ve been lost so long ...

But still I move one breath at a time

With some shard of hope buried in my side

Cutting you out of my mind

Will it be tomorrow that I lie

That I’ve moved on

That I’m alive

[whistfuldillusion]

I am divided among my many selves. The person i think i should be, the person I am, and the person I aim to be. There is this pulling in all directions that leads me to question the truth of my existence.

Am i merely a collection of past experiences, both mine and all the generations that have come and gone? Am i able to accept my responsibility for all this aching uncertainty?

I know this division is the root of my anxieties and fears. How do i merge these images? If i break each one apart can i rebuild into a truth - some singular expression that is like a breath of fresh air at a new beginning?

Is there much of anything left to conclude beyond the inarguable fact that i am the sword that creates this conflict between the false images i’ve so long identified with? Can i come to terms with this? Can i evolve beyond this?

What say you?

What say I?

This was seriously the best prank

[zzzilovetosleep]

One my favorite pranks

[scaredykyleisgonnagosoon]

So I was taught a lesson in how to get rid of a migraine in 30 seconds and omfg listen my migraines don’t go away ever but I was shown what part of my body to touch and like???????????????

It’s witchcraft????????? Like I would be burned at the stake if I lived in ye olde days knowing that information?????

What the fuck??????

[countrygirlil2015]

Spill it! Lol….Hooooowwwww?? Had migraines since age 9….😓😓😓

[scaredykyleisgonnagosoon]

Its called the T4 push, but I literally can’t find the info online????? I guess I’m not searching good enough? These medical fuckers are holdin out on us lol.

It’s best to have someone do this for you while you stand up and relax your muscles as best you can, but if you’re alone, a tennis ball and a flat surface will probably work. Alternatively you can lie on the edge of a bed at the pressure point. (But no really do try to find someone to do it for you)

Find the area in your spine between either the first, second, third, or fourth vertebrae. It should be sore and uncomfortable to press down on, so look for the one that’s most painful, and press down with as much pressure as you can on that area for 30 seconds.

Realize that 80% of your pain has magically disappeared and keep the info secret if you live in a small puritan town, lest you be tried for witchcraft.

If you don’t have to worry about being burned or hanged, then share the info with your migraine suffering friends.

As someone who wrote a 10k word paper on pressure points for a high belt ranking test in her martial arts class, I can tell you that you just found a pressure point used in acupressure and acupuncture to relieve pain, particularly that in the head. :)

Hand to god we discovered this by accident when my husband was rubbing my neck and I nearly collapsed it felt so good

[blame-my-muses]

This post was sent by literal angels??? I’ve had a persistent low-level headache for nearly 24hrs and now it’s gone??? In 30 seconds? What gods did you sacrifice to for this information!?!?

As a medical massage therapist, I thought I would give my two cents.

This is good for tension migranes and normal migraines, but actually pretty useless for sinus migraines. It’ll help for a hot second, but quickly come back. (These are usually the migraines behind your eyes, in your ears, and behind your forehead. Sometimes it can feel like jaw pain or TMJ) for sinus migraines, behind the ear in a divot. Press down firmly and pull towards your collarbone. That’ll drain your sinuses. Also, pressing around the eye socket on the cheekbones help. There is also a little triangle up away from the eye in the eyebrow bone. Press and hold pretty hard and that’ll relieve that behind the forehead pain. Also, ear pulling is great to help move sinuses around.

Don’t forget the temples too! Press firmly and hold. Open and close your jaw while holding your temples. It’ll feel weird, but it’ll help with jaw pain. It’ll work a similar way if you hold the jaw joint under your cheekbone.

And never underestimate the power of a foot massage!! Give minutes can be all the difference!! Our feet are our base. If they hurt even a little, somewhere else in your body will hurt. Treat your feet and sinuses kindly!

As a lifelong sufferer from frequent migraines I will reblog this everytime I see it, for myself and my fellow sufferers!!

[whistfuldillusion]

I wonder...

Is it ever possible to be 100% open with any one person?

No matter how strong the desire may be to do so, is that too much to ask of someone?

Is the choice to separate ourselves among those we know and love ultimately a kindness?

Or is it a self-serving defense mechanism that allows us to hide behind many masks, rather than ever have to face, or even be aware of, our true selves?
