The Umbrella Chronicles.
Sunday, May 13, 2007
I don't want to complain about life, yet I find that I do, much too often. I'm done with that. I have an exceptionally wonderful life. I'm provided with food and water and shelter and clothing. And beyond that: music, books, entertainment, an education. And so much further beyond that: a wonderful family, the most amazing friends, love, a caring environment, and endless amounts of shoulders to cry on and souls which support me. For anyone to ask for anything more than what I have is a crime. Any obstacle I come by, is simply the world showing me that I have progressed and I am ready to overcome the next tier of my life. Through the course of the short duration of my life I have learned several important fragments of truth. Something I have found is that just as no one person is the same as another, no one person is better than another. What appears to the average human eye as worthier is actually diversity. Accept others. Don't try and change them. Only try and guide them softly to realize what it is they really want. Believe in yourself. But don't find yourself getting egotistical, or else you'll find that what you have accomplished so far will slowly dissolve. Be aware. You cannot help others, along with yourself, if you are not attentive to what it is they are being put down by. Don't take time for granted. Don't cram your time. Let time flow, and flow with it. Don't expect too little or too much of yourself. Think. Sounds simple but is beyond doubt perplexing. Be careful. But not so careful that you forgot why it was you loved to live so much. Push the margins of your mind, even if it means ignoring them completely. Be yourself. As we covered at an earlier point, no one else is better, and you were made the way you are for a reason. Question things. Goes without saying, it makes answers much easier to get.

    Oh my god.
    You are probably the wisest person I've ever met. Or at least, the only person that has chosen to share her wiseness.
    I really like that quite a lot. I want it on a big poster in my room. It's very wonderful to read stuff like this.

    Toaster. Wow that is so wise and mature of you. I felt like i was in barnes and noble reading really good quotes off bookmarks. You should be quoted or write a book on how to live life.
