yeah...sometimes it feels like you have to do all of this stuff to get yourself to succeed in school, but what about helping other people? Isn't that what is truly important? Shouldn't our family and our friends and making them happy and spending time with them be the most important thing? Mr. Marra gave us that lecture on the jar with golf balls and the stones. And family and friends were golfballs and stones and school was the sand. If you fill up your life with the sand first then you wont have room for the more important stuff... and yet we find ourselves doing that in this desperate attempt to succeed. But if we dont what happens to us? well my 5 minute study break is up... I must go before i start making sense.
i think about these things a lot too. eventually, when we die, people will cry for us, maybe for a day or two, maybe for a week if we really meant something to them. and then they'll tell themselves to get it together, they'll wipe their faces with their arm and push their chin up and move on with their lives, because their lives still go on. and they don't want to waste it crying about us. which i think is good, because i don't want them to. i think i would rather have someone only cry for a little while and then just remember me in their thoughts when they see certain things or smell certain smells that remind them of me. i wouldn't want them to spend a week crying about it. that wouldn't do anything. a moment would do, not even a moment crying, just a moment thinking and reflecting and remembering their favorite time with me, their fondest memory. maybe they want to write it down. i don't know
( ... )
so, i sat down to read this and other peoples comments. i wanted to write something inspirational, or something funny. because thats what other people did. well im not like them. i cant write like that. so basically im going to leave you with this.
i have loved you, i do love you, i will always love you. no matter what. and i know others feel the same. stress sucks, but just think when its all over u and i can sit and cry and cry and cry and eat chocolate. and watch movies. and just relax because we've earned it.
