  • Lesson #87654387

    happiness

    i think that if you look for it, you might not find it simply because you are trying too hard. your expectations will be too high, therefore, nothing will be good enough and you will never be happy.

    if you wait for it, you will not find it because it's still like looking for it. even though you may not be going out to fufill it, you're still waiting for something to fulfill yourself and your gaurd will still be high like your expectations.

    but i think if you just be, you will find the joy without even knowing it.. you will find yourself happy. i think people often don't realize when they're happy.

    and i guess the same could be applied to love.

    but remember 3 things:

    1. happiness doesn't have to be extravegant. or something extravegant shouldn't have to make you happy.

    2. you don't have to always be happy to be happy.

    3. happiness isn't everything. (it's kind of selfish) it's your family, friends, special other, whatever you do or love, and (if you believe in one) God. but in them, you should find happiness.

    and i have learned this through each and every one of them.

  • Well, everyone did it, so here I am I guess

    Rules: Write a statement intended for 10 random people. NEVER TELL which one is intended for who.

    1. we go way back. we told each other everything. we used to be there for each other always, and you know i still will always be there for you. yeah you sold me out a few times, lied to me many, but i'm a patient person. i beleived in you and i also just didn't want to lose you. the sister that i never had. you have so much fucking potential. you're intelligent and  an amazing musician. i know you were 18 since you were 12 but you didn't have to act like it. you're still a baby in my eyes. small and fragile. you're still hiding. you're still running. that was always your escape. i used to think it was a special thing that we had when we didn't see each other for a long time but when we did we were still able to act as if we were just hanging out just yesterday and nothing was happening but i realized that that was just it. an act. nothing really was happening and we let it get carried away. look at us now. damn. you've changed so much. you're so smart and sophisticated but you go and do stupid shit to fuck things up. and you know what? i think you like it sometimes. you like doing that shit because it gives you something. i'm not totally blaming you. some of the things that happened you couldn't control, and ofcourse stuff like that would have an effect on your life. now you just do stuff to save yourself not really thinking of others. i want to thank you for everything though because i still know the real you underneath it all. I still understand and i still love you. i know everything you do, you do because you're scared. you really helped me develop. you helped build me character and the beginning of a sense of who i am.

    2. i really can't thank you enough for everything you've given me. i don't think i tell you how much i love you enough or show enough of my appreciation. we used to get mad at eachother so much but i know it was just because you cared. even though you do some things that i don't like and i do some things that you don't like you're still always there for me and always will be. you're so supportive in everything i wanted to be whether it was a famous ice skater to a rockstar. even if you didn't really want me to be something you still played along and that was enough. you're hella weird sometimes so i think i get that from you. i wish you didn't cry so easily or get mad so easily when i wanted to talk about personal subjects. i wish you would open up to me more but i understand how you would have a hard time talking to me about those things. and who am i to tell you to tell me those kind of personal things when i can't tell you those things about myself. i've been working on it and i think we're getting better at it though. baby steps. thank you and i love you.



    3. first there were four. then there was three. now there's us. you understand me so well when it comes to jokes or playing along in something and sarcasm. i love have we can be so blunt and weird around each other. i can't joke around and be sarcastic the way i do with others like the way i do with you. no one else shares my interest in indie films like you. us and our sophiticated indie elitest shit. no one understands. indiefucks for life.

    4. iowngivafuck


    5. don't be so hard on yourself. don't let things get to you so easily. you underestimate your capabilities sometimes. you're a strong person and you're smart, don't think otherwise. you're the most cool ass person i know. there are a lot of times when i don't understand you like why you are doing what you are doing. i don't get it but there's so much passion and depth to you. i want to get underneath it all. don't be so negative.be nice. you don't always have to act hard. unless that's how you really feel or are. where are all the other aspects? you mean so much to me. i don't think you realize how much you've had an impact on me, i wish i could say the same for you. sorry for being so difficult, i really don't mean to be.


    6. we were close but now you're so preoccupied we have no time for each other. you've found others anyway. i really did not think you would turn out like this. you're starting to mess up. those others, they don't care for you like we do. i think we've yet still to clarify that to you. that we still care. we'll always be here for you. remember that.


    7. you're like my little baby brother i like to look out for. we've gotten to know each other well as time went by. i want you to stay strong. i believe in you and i really hate to see you down. i have my eye on you and you know i'll always have your side. i won't say i have your back because people can backstab, but i'll be beside you. i don't think you realized you helped me make a crucial decision long ago that would have impacted me until now and then some. you're true, faithful, and thoughtful. always looking out for others. you've got a crazy personality and very charismatic.

    8. you really changed me and i look up to you. before you, i've never met anyone with so much passion and kindness and love and intelligence as you. you inspired me to write. you understood me and was always down for true beauty and always saw it in others. i think we got along so well because we are both such dreamers and always encouraged each other. that is what i will always be thanksful for. your encouragement. for not puting me down. you were always filled with uplifting advice or encouragement. i'm sorry for that time i was so mean to you when you were down but like a true friend not to long after i was down and you were there for me trying to make me feel better. we're going to make the world beautiful. you try to make others happy and see the beauty in themselves and i loved it. i love your writing. i always wished, and still do, that you would mention me in one of your books one day. you're still my favorite author.


    9. you were diffrent from when we were first becoming friends. you changed and at first i thought it was for the worst but i guess it grew on to you. you used to be crazy and loud. now you're so hard to get and understand. you're hella talented and so introverted that's what kept me coming back. you're a ladies man and keep everyone guessing. you're so weird. i used to like you for so long. no one made me feel the way you used to make me feel. i used to do crazy things to catch your attention or just to be around you. you're a cool ass person for being so chill but that's what i hated sometimes. how you could seem so careless. it drove me crazy. you laugh on the inside of your chest and it sounds like you're dying or something but it's a hearty laugh. you're such a little kid. thank you for one of the best nights of my life. thank you for still being the same and not acting different from when i expressed how i felt when i felt it. now i'm just glad we're as close of friends as we are now.


    10. i barely saw you or know you. all i have is pictures and vague memories. after all the things you'd think i'd be angry but i'm not. maybe i was, or maybe i still am but for some reason i can't seem to hold it up. i don't think the way things are and the things you did fucked me up like it would usually fuck up other kids but thats because i chose not to think about it alot. which came to me not thinking about you at all at times. it became a careless subject and i made it not matter but you were still in my prayers. i'm sorry i still haven't written back. i think it's been almost half a year since you sent me a letter and you're still waiting for a response. you make and break a lot of promises. i think you make up excuses too. i hope you're good and that things are not too hard for you.
