A few days ago I was at work, by myself, lonely and thinking. I was thinking about my past, what my high school experience was like, my faith. Pain. I was about to cry, then a song came on shuffle on my iPod. I skipped it at first, then skipped back. I am so glad I did! I realized that this forgotten song was EXACTLY how I felt!
No matter what has happened or what people have told you, there is something, someone, that makes you feel like you are just on fire. Hope burns a heavy flame no one can extinguish.
So, for all you bruised, broken, and mistreated people, remember those you love. I am on fire for my Angel, and he makes me happier than anything I've ever experienced, despite what has happened or what will happen.
Today, I raided my older brother's box of DVDs. (There are literally HUNDREDS. Who has time to watch these? Seriously?) I grabbed a stack of five or six and headed upstairs. Running into my father, I asked if he wanted to watch one with me and he said sure. I let him pick. (The three or four slasher, horror, blood blood blood movies were instantly gone.) Among the pile was a movie that I had been wanting to see for a long time, called Letters to Juliet. Picking this one, we both sat down, and watched to whole movie together.
By the end, I was in tears.
This was a beyond beautiful, lovely, and funny movie. It pulled at my heart strings and the ends of my smile the whole adventure. Set in Italy, it revolves around an American girl, engaged and dreaming to be a journalist, who comes to the famed city of Verona. There, she finds a wall where people write letters to Juliet, for advice and help. Soon after she meets a group of women who call themselves the "Secretaries of Juliet." They manage the wall, take all the letters, and write back. Intrigued, Sophie helps the next day, collecting letters, and finds one that is over FIFTY years old. She decides she has to write back, and an adventure ensues to find a long lost lover.
You NEED to watch this movie, especially if any of the following apply to you:
a. You love Shakespeare
b. You love Italy/travel
c. You believe in true love
d. You have a significant other... ahem...
Below is a trailer. I wish you all the love you deserve to chase after!
Right now, we're struggling, straddling the edge of a monstrous cliff of agony, pain, and suffering... But at the same time we are climbing the Precipice of Peace. Even though life may hand us the wrong card or give us an apple instead of that damn lemon we wanted, we will make it. We know that this is the moment of truth. Right here, right now, with you. Nothing else matters. If we fall, we will get up. You can fly as high as low as I can sink.
Sorry, I know I haven't posted in a while. Summer is here, and that is about to change. Be ready to be bombarded.
Just some updates on the site:
~YES, the name has changed. I feel it reflects more of the purpose and desire of this blog rather than relating that it is a blog solely for me. This blog is for EVERYBODY.
~Here is my PERESONAL email... email me with anything you want, whether you want to send me a picture, video to put on the blog, or just wanna say hi :) I want to hear from you and spread the word! dhkookykid@yahoo.com
Ok, Just some updates on me. I have now officially GRADUATED HIGH SCHOOL!!!!!!! =D YAY!! Before that, I suffered a major break down after, well, a major break up, (ironic) and ended up staying in the psychiatric ward of the hospital for a few days. (Has anyone had a similar experience?) You will hear about that soon!! I do plan to write a book eventually :) Just recently, though, I found the love of my life <3 Tye, I love you, and I want to be with you forever <3 You and only you <3 We'll make it through this baby!
Well, thats all for now.. I will be adding more original pictures and pieces as well, so be on the lookout!
Why can’t I live in a world of fantasy Surrounded by magic, enchantment, Indifference. Where warlocks and “where”wolves, And witches and demons Exist. When vampires’ hearts are as ice; frozen still, And fairies hold magic And creatures roam between cracks in the sidewalk, Forever. To see the world with new sight, Have monsters and gods Be friend or be foe And escape from this world Of mundane existence, Where bigotry, hatred, and sorrow Prevail. Sword of truth, shatter. For princes and heroes and curses so dreadful Are my desires. So runes, take me there And magic shine bright For my life will truly begin Where shadows end.
So... I heard you think all gays are fags.. No duh Sherlock. In fact, some of us like it that way. As Pink says, "We will never be anything but loud and dirty little freaks!" I don't know why you terrorize others, but you have no idea the mental and physical damage one fool can cause. It's sick. Maybe you're just scared of us. Maybe you're buried in the closet. Or maybe you just don't understand. But understand this: We will NEVER back down. We will NEVER give in. We will NEVER be silenced. And love will ALWAYS win. Love, Daniel
Once upon a time, Prometheus, a powerful Titan, created the first woman: Pandora. Pandora was beautiful and pure, much like you and I. However, one day, Prometheus stole fire from Zeus and the other Gods of Olympus and gave it to man... Even though Zeus punished Prometheus, the Gods decided to take out their anger on mankind. They each offered Pandora a gift. Zeus gave Pandora a special, sacred Jar, telling her that she was to not look inside. It was a trap for her curiosity. Inside the jar were vile, disgusting things: Pain, torment, evil creatures.... even death. Pandora could not resist the magical Jar, as it followed her everywhere. One day she couldn't take it; she opened the jar. Death and destruction leaped out to reek havoc upon mankind and the earth.
Pandora reached to shut the jar up forever....but it was too late. Mankind lost control of chaos and death. Pandora was so distraught she cried a pool of acid... However, there was one thing left inside the jar after the lid was closed:
HOPE.
Mankind had kept the gift of hope. If hope was to be released, man would truly lose. So the Jar was hidden. Locked away forever.
Those who journeyed after hope lost their way, never came back, or just disappeared. But those who found it realized that hope was preserved, and they brought news back to the world.
"Hope is alive" they said. "And it will last forever.
I don’t see the point in trying to even write this. I’m just going to go home and cry anyways. No one will ever see this or care. The worldview hold has morphed drastically over the past few months. I no longer see the world as a place of peace, love, or joy. There is only corruption and room for failure. I can’t say anything without it being overly criticized or drastic action being taken. Apparently, I can’t even think without being a danger to myself and society. Not my fault I wanted to kill myself, and wish I had. Look, I’m spilling my heart out for a stupid worldview paper that isn’t even half a page long yet. There’s no point. Guess I’m a nihilist. Life isn’t worth living at the moment. So I guess I’ll just end the paper here….
