Nothing Lasts Forever

Hey guys. I want to talk about something a little more emotional today. And I don't have a full understanding of this topic, but I would still like to talk about it because it's not something that is talked about often. I haven't lost much in my life, but I have lost my share. Life is short. And more times than not, we don't know what all we have. Not until it's lost at least. We take everything we love for granted, and we don't even mean to. We go about our lives, thinking about what's going on right now. What problems we are going through in life. Who we fall in love with. School. Work. We don't think about tomorrow. We don't think about today. We do what we do without a second thought. But it's because of this that we can't see what we have. And by the time we do see it, it's too late. And what we had will be gone. I'm not asking you to do much. Just tell the people you care about, how much you care for them. Tell them you love them. Make sure you know. Because even if you think everything will be okay, it can all be taken away from you in a single instance. And you don't know when that instance may happen. Nothing is guaranteed in this world. Nothing but death. Because everything that is alive now, will end up dying. Even the world will end someday. Maybe not today. Maybe not tomorrow. Maybe not for millions of years. But everything is eventually lost. So take a minute to let those around you know how you feel. Because in the end, you never know.

Be Yourself

Do you have a particular hobby that you absolutely love, but when you show that side to certain people, they do nothing but criticize you and what you love? Many people have many different types of hobbies and each one is unique in it's own way. Some hobbies that I am personally interested in that are criticized by people include watching anime, doing cosplay, taking interest in mid-evil and Renaissance stuff, and different things like that. Some people criticize the fact that I blog. I am criticized for being bisexual, for preferring to write by hand than type on a computer, for not liking the same stuff others do, and so much more. But that is just the day and age we live in. No matter what you do, people will always criticize you. But that shouldn't stop you from doing what you love. Don't care what others think or say. Because for every person who looks down on you for what you like, there is someone else who has the same interests as you. If you like doing something, go out and do it. Ignore those around you who try to make you feel lower than you are. They are not above you in any way. Don't let them step on you, your dreams, or what you love to do. Stand up for yourself. Don't actually stand up in violence, but keep doing what you love. Show it off. Do what you do best. Because I promise that someone somewhere looks up to you for having the courage to do what you love. Keep going. Have fun. Life is short, so live it the way you want. Don't let others decide what you do for you. Decide for yourself. Just be yourself, no matter what others think or say. You are you. And you are the best you that will ever live.

Self-Harm discussion

Okay guys. I'm sorry I'm a day late for posting, but I didn't have a chance to do it yesterday since I didn't have my computer or internet where I was. But here I am, still posting for this week. Nothing really happened worth talking about this week. But I would like to make a post about self harm. I did it at one point and I know many people who have either done it before, or is currently doing it. Let me tell you something. You might feel like this is the only solution, but it's not. You are not only hurting yourself. You are hurting those around you who love you as well. And each time you do it, it makes everyone worry even more about you. Some of you may think that no one notices. Well I bet you anything that more people notice than you think. They might just not bring it up because they don't want you to feel pressured or uncomfortable. They think that if you are hurting so bad inside that you have to cause physical harm to your body, you will end up breaking even more or completely. And they don't want that. All they want to do is help you. Now, you might be wondering why I chose this topic to talk about today. Well, one of the most important people in my life has been self harming ever since she was little. And she is still young. I hate it and I would give anything to help her stop. But no matter what I do to try to help, she just ends up doing it again. But I won't give up on her. I just hope that she can find the will to stop someday soon. Even if it's false hope, I will always hope that. She just doesn't seem to understand how amazing she is. She feels like the whole world is against her but it isn't. She thinks that we are all against her, but we aren't. I hate that she feels this way. I just want to help her stop because I had someone help me to stop back then. And if you think that cutting yourself is the only form of self harm, you are wrong. Anything that is you causing physical or mental harm to yourself is considered self harm. Try different coping skills, go talk to the people around you that you know you can trust. You might even think that you can't trust anyone. Well you need at least one person in your life that you can trust unconditionally. If you don't have that person in your life, I would be more than happy to fill that spot until you can find someone. I will always listen and always do my best to help. So if you or someone you know is suffering from self harm, drop a comment below or show them this blog. Maybe it will help. You can also email me if you don't want to talk on the blog. I don't mind. Anyways. I hope y'all have a wonderful week. Keep pushing forwards. Even if you think all hope is gone. Because everything will eventually get better.
