LOVE..there are sometimes no words :)

Take a Stand

I visited my friend the other night, and we sat on his front wall having SUCH a Deep Meaningful Conversation about humanity. Yes, he's a guy, he plays videogames, he plays rubgy and cricket, he has a girlfriend, he LOVES eating. But I can talk to him and feel perfectly safe.
I was venting about how upset I was that males cannot control themselves and think it's perfectly alright to go ahead and read FHM and Playboy and watch explicit porn. I was SO MAD that I honestly thought I was going to start crying right there, on his front wall. He moved closer to me and, said quietly, so that the other people running around in the front yard could not hear, 'Yes, I think its awful. But it makes them feel like men. I know lots of people like that. It's very stupid. But it's also because they want to seem cool. I'm not sure why they can't just be themselves and keep it real.'
It was such a gem of wisdom from a great guy friend that I gave him a massive hug, tears forgotten for a while. There are people out there who try their very hardest to be themselves no matter what anybody else says. My friend also said that his stepfather told him when he was little, 'Be the best person you can be.' He said that it really stuck with him and I can see the difference in him compared to the other boys. There are people like my friend with integrity and individuality who are completely cool and can talk honestly with people without the fear on being 'uncool'.
BE YOURSELF AND HAVE INTEGRITY <3

How Does It Feel Knowing You're Buried Alive?

"How does it feel knowing you're buried alive?" ask 'Falling in Reverse in their hit single, 'Caught Like a Fly'.
Lying is terrible.
Deceving is terrible.
Your life is a chronicle of your choices, good and bad. You an choose your actions, but you cannot choose the consequences. People hardly ever think before they act. They may not care what happens to them, but one stupid action hurts others all around you.
STOP LYING.

Don't do anything that hurts others in order to protect yourself. Think about why you are doing something wrong, and if it's for some dumb gain for yourself, DON'T DO IT.
Help everyone around you but not lying through your teeth. Lying in omission is just as bad. If you know that your friend's boyfriend is cheating on her, tell her before it hurts her even more later on. Don't get yourself 'caught in a web of your lies.'
Even if it will hurt you to own up, take courage.

So. That was short and simple :D
