Pfft, I always read your stuff bitch. You should know that by now. <3
And you know, I can always see the validity in your points but despite the massive amount of suicidal pain that I feel right now, I would not trade my last 7 years with Lux for anything even had I known that it would end like this.
Heh, I know love, I know, I was not speaking to you with that. ~_^
Yes, if nothing else, my points are always well stated, if not agreeable. And I am glad you would not, perhaps you do not believe it now, but I believe you will look back on this period of your life, even with the amount of emotional turmoil you are experienceing, and know that in the end, it made you a better, stronger person, very few people can say the same.
Fact: You are a beautiful young woman, so you don't need to worry about whether or not your friends are just being nice to you. :)
Fact: No one likes being hurt, but not feeling at all is worse (in my opinion). I have gone down the road of apathy before and ultimately I realized it got me a whole lot of nowhere.
Coming from someone who was one of the people who would simply hold everything in, but I figured out that it was okay to let things out even if it is just to a really good friend or confidant. I am sure you have one of those.
Fact: Aw, thank you, I am sorry I missed you at Ministry, there were so many bloody people there! o_0;
Fact: Hmm, perhaps, I suppose I am young yet and this realization will hit me years down the line, but for right now, apathy is my defense mechanism against a cold, cruel world and it works for me, heh.
I surely do have one of those, but I just figured that it would come out one day in a wave of awe inspiring violence visited upon the shoppers of some random large retailer... j/k... or am I... ha ha. ~_^
I, too, have felt much of what you stated here.... The key to it all is this: things only have as much power to uplift or destroy a person as that person gives those things to do so. We often do not see the world as critically as we see ourselves. So be aware that much of what you see in others may be the things you would change about yourself. As for the good things you are told that you try to convince yourself of otherwise; When and where did it become a crime to have a good self image? I wonder this... It is more exhausting, after all, to exert the energy to care for oneself; and that is pretty much everything that is wrong with the world.
I figured that most intelligent people have gone through a period where they were dwelling on these decidedly negative subjects. Generally, I am not one of those people, I usually have a decently high opinion of myself, which sometimes gets characterized by others as being arrogance, not incorrectly at times I must admit
( ... )
What a brilliant point you bring to light there! ("Actually, I agree with the idea of people having a poor self image, I think a lot of factors go into that, societal, enviornmental, but I attribute it to people not actually believeing most of the negative things they say about themselves and only wanting confirmation from others of all the positive things they see about themselves.") I don't think I was looking at it that way; but thank you so much for bringing that possibility to the fore! Very insightful

Lastly, Yes, I do indeed read. :)
