The observer

You know, it's funny. The more I sit back and watch, the more I realize how much people take for granted, and how little they care.

Life's balance

Belief. Belief in all things possible. Belief in the impossible. The unknown. In all things invisible to the naked eye. What is love without faith, feeling without knowledge? Hatred, envy, disgust; the balance of all things good. This life is shaped upon experience, upon taking chances. If we remain scared, we'll never conquer our dreams, our fears, our nightmares. We're living a dream, and in that dream, we can do anything.

Better

It always gets better. And I have to believe it. I have to believe that everything has it's reason, it's purpose, and that everything will fall into place as they are meant to, even if we do screw up along the way.

Cure

Feeling unpretty, you can usually find ways to change that. But feeling unwanted, useless, and good for nothing? Now that's something that is hard to find a cure for.

110%

You start off by wanting to give 110 percent of everything you have. What's sad, is somewhere along the way, you find yourself caring a little less, doing a little less, and hurting a little less. But somewhere along the way too, you learn to be just happy. Nothing more. You learn to expect less from others, appreciate what you have, and realize that each day in itself is a blessing.

Pain is temporary

They say pain is temporary. Evidently so is happiness. Because shortly after, we go right back to the beginning, wishing for an end, and losing all track of the in-between.

Fighter

I am no good. Often left with the feeling of worthlessness. How dare I give up my once sought dreams, my desires, my happiness. And now, in the shadows of the darkness, where the sun no longer shines, here I am. Desperate for answers I cannot seem to find. Longing for a way to get over this mess of me. Will I ever see the shore? Land upon it? I've been riding these waves for so long now, drowning as I sail further and further away. But who am I to say. If ever I reach land, I'll just end up in another hole. One that no matter how shallow or easy to get out of, I'll just slip right back into. Why I try so many times over to make things right, I will never know. That's all my life seems to be is trying. It never just is. But that's the hero in me. Fighting just for the slightest hope that one day, maybe, i'll see that light we're all told there is. Even if its just a glimpse. Then, maybe, I'll know all this fighting is worth it.

Milestones

Happiness is not putting another's happiness before your own if they aren't putting yours before there's too. It has to be mutual. Not only coming from one way. What we go through makes us who we are, shapes us. We can be whoever we want to be, change, evolve. But we cannot change where we came from, or who we once were. We all have our own struggles. Our daily battles and demons that try to bring us down. Only, we cannot let it. If we choose to, we will never progress into becoming a better person, but only depriving ourselves of happiness instead. For too long I've done just that. I find it odd that my life has come to the point of trying to get through a single day; thus, making each day a milestone.

Afraid

You don't know me. And probably never will. You don't want to. And I don't want you to.

For you

Only you can overcome what's brought you down. Change can only come from within. You have to work at it. You have to improve yourself. Be a better you. It's not easy. You can't think of it as one day at a time, but rather one moment at a time. You have to live for each moment, for you, and no one else.
