When faced with the mountain of adversity
Man either rises above it
or crumbles beneath its weight
for there is no moving the mountains

Flying

Ok, so I have this teacher that I absolutely hate with every fiber of my being. He's the worst teacher in the world. He's boring, stupid, and inane. He's the stupidest idiot that I've ever had the misfortune to know and I have no idea how I'm supposed to last an entire year with him.

Now that felt really good.....but I might have been a bit unfair. This teacher of mine is not stupid on the contrary he is very smart, filled to the brink with useless knowledge. (oops there I go again with my unfair judgements). He is a bit boring but he's not that bad. Truthfully my biggest problem with him is his rules. I find most of them to have no purpose whatsoever. But I can handle, that I mean I'll have to live the rest of my life tied down by stupid rules that only exist because without them the Idiotic and Useless of society wouldn't be able to function. My problem with my teacher's rules are his reasoning behind them. His reasoning is not to see if we can obey stupid rules or in preparation of the rules we will deal with later in life, its not even just because he can. His reason for for setting down these laws is that life isn't fair so why should his class be. Now excuse my language, but that is the biggest case of bullshit I've come across in a while. That's just an excuse people use when they don't want to admit that they're being unreasonable. Sure life is unfair, but that does not give a person the right to take away what little fairness there could be. "Life is unfair" is just a pathetic little excuse people use when they're afraid. When instead of trying to fight against whatever *unfairness fate throws at them, they shrug their shoulders as if to say it's too far above us, what can we do. The world should be filled with more then just people who shrug their shoulders.

You're probably all thinking the same thing. That this is an idealist view of the world, real life isn't as easy as this, no one can do this. Truthfully I completely agree with you. How can a single person rise above anything? My answer is simply by trying. It's true you could try and fail, and that failure could end up crushing you. The world is not so kind as to let every person succeed. In spite of that or maybe because of it I would rather die trying to fly then to live safely on the ground. I don't much like boundaries or limits. I hate that saying " The sky's the limit". I don't want anything limiting me. Whether it be my parents or society or even the sky. It may end up backfiring horrendously, but I'm going to test the boundaries every day of my life. (Now that does NOT mean I'm going to go out and try to break laws and get myself sent to jail, because that would be stupid beyond belief.) It simply means I'm not going to let the sky, the world or the people that live in it dictate how high I can fly, and neither should you.

*the unfair things in life can be anything from being forced to clean your room to racism and war.
Do you ever wish your life was a fairy tale? I do, majority of the time in fact. Fairy tale are simple. There's good friends and true love and a whole bunch of other happy things. Even the bad things like the evil witch aren't as bad because you know that the good guys always win. Right from the start you know how its going to end, and maybe that's the allure. These stories give us the stability that real life doesn't. But think about it would you really want to live in a world where you always knew what was going to happen? Some of you might be like "yeah that sounds awesome just so long as whats going to happen is good." Well now think about that a bit harder ..... whats the point of living if you know whats going to happen, and whats the point of starting if you know how its going to end? There is no point. So try and live each and everyday in a new and different way. Don't ever be afraid of trying new things.

a free spirit

I want to ride the wind and climb the mountains
i want the breeze beneath my wings and the sun high in the sky
i want to live a life of wonder and of freedom
and more then any other thing i want to soar, i want to fly

I want no ties to bind me
i want this one life that i was given to be tinged in beauty
i want no friends to mourn me
i merely wish to live my life freely

I want to cross the desert and swim the ocean
i want each breath to be as my last
and in the end i want my soul unbroken
i want no future and no past

I want my clouds lined in silver and in gold
i want to breathe
i want to break all molds
i wish to be

Like any other on this earth i have hurt
but, all the world i will forgive
i want no bonds of hatred and pain
i simply want life and to live

a light in the dark

Well my friend just texted me and she is having the worst day ever, the most impossibly horrendous day possible. So i decided to write this post in honor of her.

Ok, so everyone knows about *yin and yang right? If not don't worry I'm about to explain, if you do just listen anyway. Maybe you know about it, but have you ever really thought about it? Probably not, i mean who really does. But back to the point, yin and yang are the Chinese representations of opposites. Some of you are probably sitting there with a dumb look on your face and the words say what in your minds. I'm talking about opposites like black and white, good and evil, so on and so forth, but yin and yang go even deeper then that.

What is the simplest representation of opposites? Good and evil, but let's think for a second is anything in this world well and truly good or evil? The answer....HELL NO. Growing up everyone from your parents to your teachers tell you this is this and that is that. As you grow older you learn the truth. That there are times when this is that and that is this; when there is no black or white... just varying shades of grey. Its the same for good and evil. In my opinion there is no such thing pure evil or even pure good. All that exists are things that are more evil or more good. the yin yang symbol represents this very well. The white side is like a warning. it seems to say be careful because even in the purest seeming thing there is some evil, whether it be in the intentions or in the act. On the other hand the black side is to serve as a reminder that even in your darkest time there is a little bit of light.

So try and remember when you are having the crappiest day you can imagine, and you can't see any light at all in the world, that somewhere in this wide wide world there is someone having a worse day, week, month, year then you. True this a cliched saying that you probably got told countless times through out your childhood, but it works. So use this old, worn out cliched saying as your light in the unrelenting darkness......and tell your bad day to piss off!




*Yin and yang are symbolised as a circle that is half white and half black with a dot of black in the white and vice versa.

a bit about a bunch of things

Well, this is my first ever blogging.(I apologise in advance for misspelling, bad grammar, and overall random boring things). I have absolutely no idea if anyone will like or even care about my blog, and truth be told i don't need you to. (Though i will ask that nobody send me mean comments. my feelings get hurt easily lol.) I'm making this blog simply because it seems like an interesting way to pass the unending monotonous days of my life. in this blog i won't write about just one thing, no matter how good or important that one thing may be. i couldn't even if i wanted to. Why? Because I'd get bored! And you'd get bored and he/she/we'd get bored, and after all that where would we be..... in our own little cosy pit of boredom that's where. So if its ok with you I'll try and avoid that at all costs.
In this blog some things you might expect are: numerous rants about things i don't like or things that piss me off, my day-to-day view on whatever i feel like talking about at that moment, maybe some stories about my life, or some stories that I've written. I'll write about whatever catches my fancy or yours. Feel free to give me some ideas, I'd appreciate it.
I'll probably post every week or so, more if somehow this becomes super popular or i just feel like talking, less if i just get busy.
Putting it out there right now I apologise if I offend anyone in any of my posts. Write me about it, let me know. true i don't care if anyone likes my posts, but i also don't want to needlessly hurt someone. I'm very open about all my beliefs and very easygoing about them too.
So now you all know a little about my blog. It's kinda boring true, but hey read it anyway you might learn something(you might not have wanted to know but you'll learn it anyway lol). I guess that's it for tonight. I'm outy. Peace=]
