Sixteen In July

For a US History project, each student in my class has been instructed to create two timelines, one consisting of a fact about our lives from each year that we've been alive, and another consisting of historical facts from those years.

I am planning these timelines out on notecards.
I am holding 16 little snips of my life right here in my hands.
Its trippy : )

(The title of this post is the title of a song by The Avett Brothers, a wonderful band from my hometown!!!)

It's a good feeling

To laugh hard when you haven't laughed for a while.

To know you aren't alone in anything.

To know the power of the word "please."

To feel the warm sun shine on you on a forty degree day.

To know you have one person you can always count on.

To take a deep breath and sigh, even when you aren't feeling upset.

To appreciate other people for their imperfections.

To love yourself.

please find something that makes you feel good today : )

"Forgiveness, The Enviable Trait"

Due to my extreme emotions and frightening ability to step into someone else's shoes (emotionally), I have found that I can get myself into tangles of messy emotional webs of scary sadness. I have also found that others have been able to use this against me.

I care about you.
I care so much for people that it's become so easy to forgive.
And this is how:
Every person lives his or her life with the soul purpose of making themselves happy.
Think about it; everything you do is aimed at making yourself feel good. Yes, even those people who are entirely dedicated to others...the reward of their efforts makes them feel good.
 For me, my happiness is knowing other people are happy.
That is what I want for the people I care about.
No matter what crime you commit against me, you will be forgiven because I know that, despite the pain you inflicted upon me, you will be happy.

You are forgiven.

The lyrics of the tile of my post today (by PlayRadioPlay!) :

I left you by the stairs with a credit card

To fill your hollow heart

I'm sure that this ain't the last time

I will hear it but I don't regret

I won't



So listen to the sound of the river

It's inaudible cause you don't flow

I've Deleted My Facebook Account

I have found that I spend all of my extra time on Facebook. And after I'm finished talking to my friends, all I do is creep on other people. I have also realized that no one else cares, or needs to know what i am doing at any given moment.

SO therefor, I have created this blog in order to maybe give some helpful advice, explain my thoughts, thank some people, maybe make someone laugh, and NOT share my personal life every 2 seconds : )
