Seriously, last evening, a co-worker’s status read “Stay Positive.” I about choked.
i wonder if anybody’s actually had feelings for me, like actually got upset or mad over little things i did and got jealous and confused over me and thought about me on a regular basis. i feel like i’m the only person that ever really cares about anyone and that nobody’s ever felt that way for me.

1. What is more difficult for you, looking into someones eyes when you are telling someone how you feel, or looking into someones eyes when they are telling you how they feel?
Looking in their eyes when saying how I feel, because I have little problem with the saddest and worst problems of mostly anyone, but when I get to the point where I have to share my own feelings, it is because they are...
tessaviolet:
oh man it makes me so mad how rude people on the internet can be and i’m not talking about “trolls”. just people genuinely not realizing that what they’re commenting is completely unsolicited and rude.
Because I, myself, am guilty of being oblivious, can you put a video together to explain what isn’t constructive or expected?

Don’t google your name. Ever.
Don’t “search” for yourself
on anything that glows in the dark.
Don’t let your beauty
be something anyone can turn off.
Don’t edit your ugly out of your bio.
Let your light come from the fire.
Let your pain be the spark,
but not the timber.
Remember, you didn’t come here
to write your heart out.
You came to write it in.
