The Bridge.

I want you to imagine an island. This island contains: School, Stress, Chores, Bills, Your House, Family and Work. This island is just average. Nothing really special. You want something new in your life. Something beautiful. Life changing. Now, imagine another island of in the distance, that is un reachable. This island holds: Happiness, Trust, Confidence, Laughter, Friends, Hope, and an un shakable bond. Next, in between the two islands is a bridge. This bridge is the missing link to you getting to that second island. You drive across the bridge and immediately feel a warm sensation across your skin. It is like nothing you have ever felt, and you never want to leave.

The first island represents your life, and your conscious state. It represents all of the things in life that come naturally. It represents not just life, but what you don't chose to have. Things that come no matter what. The second island represents your subconscious state. It represents a place that you feel safe in.  It represents a life that you can live in forever and that makes you the person you are today. That island is the best thing to ever happen to you. Now the bridge. The bridge represents Friendship. Without that one bridge in your life you can never reach that second island. 

Often you make mistakes and in life and that leads to that second island going away. It sinks for a moment. The less you want to go to the second island, the less you use the bridge. The less the bridge is used, the weaker it gets, until you have to repair it manually. 

You have heard the phrase "You've already burned that bridge." No going back. You have already made your decision. You have to be careful what you do in life, because often that bridge can burn without you knowing it.

P.S Sorry this has been on such a delay. I am going to start writing more. Build back my blogging bridge.

There's A Danger In Starting A Fire - A Day To Remember

we've got our fingers crossed

our fingers crossed

that's the danger in starting a fire

you'll never know how many bridges you'll burn

Sometimes:

Sometimes I forget to look back at how far I've come. Sometimes I forget to look back on how much I have to be grateful for. Sometimes I forget to be the positive person, I strive to be. 

Sometimes, I forget the fact that I have so many people on my side. When people say rude things to me at school, or over the internet, I forget how many people think the opposite. I feel like more people need to think this way. More people need to realize how many people are right next to them, rooting for that smile on their face. Maybe what we need to realize is that our enemies are the ones who tell us honestly how they feel. They are the one of the only individuals that can be completely open about their opinions. Strive to realize that our enemies are the ones who give us the chance to be ourselves. Fight against what people tell you they don't like. You are yourself, and that is why you have so many people that smile when you walk into the room.

High school has changed so many people. Some for the good and some for the bad. What I have realized is that, if I stand up for myself, people only have two options. They can either take me as I am, or watch me as I go. They can walk all over me, or help me up. Don't let this cruel world get you down. I can guarantee you are loved by so many people. Keep your chin up. I know you are beautiful.

I'm made of Wax Larry, What are you made of?- A Day To Remember

Everybody's out to get me.

Any moment could be my last.

This is me, you can take it or leave.

Right or wrong

I will stand on my own two feet.

Just breathe.

2011 - Dedicated to everyone who has taken me here.

See that world out there? Yeah, I am taking over.

Sometimes, I take criticism too lightly. Sometimes, too heavy. When I try too hard, I have heard people notice. I heard from one of my very best friends, that she "misses" the way I was. The band t-shirts. The vans. She misses the person I was before I changed, to who I am now. Not that this isn't a good person, but it isn't what she is used too. 

I have thought a lot about they way I am. The way I need to be. Who I want to become. What I have decided is that the only way I can be both, is to find a balance. To find a way of being myself, but still be everything my dreams have been set on. I have decided to find a way to be everything I have wanted to be. My deepest dreams are being fulfilled, but it hurts just as equal, to see my old self lost. The old self carried me to a place that I could not be grateful for. The beauty that this life offers is nothing I could have seen before, but I never wanted to change, until I realized what was happening to myself. I am growing. Truly I am become something I have always wanted to be.

My resolution for this year is to go back in time, to before I tried. To become more of my natural self, with a higher self esteem and a better self image. I am out to prove everyone that told me I couldn't, wrong. This is my deepest dream. So. Walk with me, and see what my eyes have seen. Take my hand and let me show you what it is to love. How to end this war.

Searching, Seeking, Reaching, Always. - We Came As Romans

And every end is just the start to something else.
I think that if we ever stopped seeking out
what it is that keeps us growing,
then we'll never stop searching for the piece.
The heart that will keep us loving.

I'm always searching for

I'm always searching.
This path's not easy to walk upon.
I'm always seeking.
Knowing that I'm eager to carry on.
I'm searching, seeking, reaching for something more.
I'll be better than before.
Reaching for something more
