Sometimes you’re close with people.
Then you drift apart but neither of you acknowledges it.
And you kind of want to hang out with them but you think it’d be awkward.
Then you miss the gap and you pretty much don’t talk forever.
Oh well. Life happens.
It is inevitable. You will be plagued with random doses of bummer thoughts. You will find yourself completely unmotivated, drained entirely out of energy and absolutely ready to give up. Those less-than-happy thoughts will infiltrate your brain like a SWAT team, gunning down every positive thought. You will find yourself wandering the forest of lost souls and realize that you belong there. You will find yourself drowning in the sea of people. You will discover that most people simply just don’t care and that really hurts. You will question your existence, drawing blanks at all of life’s obstacles. You will find yourself wanting nothing more than to sleep away your days. You will see the city of sanity you’ve struggled to build will be washed away by the harsh tides of reality.
I tell you now to keep hope. I tell you now to take the time to reminisce over wonderful memories. I tell you now to be grateful for all the one-of-a-kind people in your life. I tell you now to read a good book or to watch a funny TV show. I tell you now to call your mom or one of those countless other people that love you (and trust me, they are abundant). I tell you now to refuse to fret or to let the world get you down. I tell you now to take a walk and admire those lovely stars in the night sky. I tell you now to keep your head up, to remember that you are one amazing human being and you are deserving of a fulfilling life.
Chin up, crack a smile and keep your eyes on the prize.
To my amazing disciple.
I’m a little embarrassed to say this, but i was really excited to come home today because of this chair. This chair represents how well you know me. Something as subtle as my old chair, the one my uncle found on the side of a street, was a janky piece of scrap metal that made this errrrrrrchodufhidjgni noise every time i sat in it.
It’s absolutely hilarious/sweet of you to get me this chair. I was so confused when the package arrived at my door step! This goes to show how well you know me, after what, a little more than a quarter?! How did you pick up on my secret pet peeves?! Anyways, thank you for all of the gifts, i absolutely love them.
Love them so much that it makes up for you showing up to dinner w/ the same sweater as me…
Just so I have this forever.
On Reddit, I go straight for all the pictures. On Tumblr, I get annoyed by pictures but want to just read all the text.
Advertisement for the Canadian Paralympics. Pretty inspiring.
I have no idea why but whenever I’m pissed, my body gets really tired and I can’t do anything but sleep. Dang it. Just got to the library though and I have a midterm tomorrow!!
Marina Abramović - The Artist Is Present: This emotional exhibit, held in the Museum of Modern Art for three months in early spring 2010, featured Abramović sitting in a chair for the entirety of the day at the museum. Visitors were encouraged to sit silently across from the artist for a duration of their choosing, becoming participants in the artwork. Abramović, acting as an “emotional mirror” to the patrons, silently stared at them, often inducing deeply profound and heartbreaking reactions.
