Diana posted this as a bulletin. I am posting it as a blog...though my profile is on private so I guess it doesn't matter...I just want everyone to be able to see it. It's incredibly true, and I cannot express enough how much these things can affect another being.....the fear, the denial, the longing for what can never be, and the missing of oppurtunities....but especially the love that is constant. Everyone means something to me....and some mean absolutely everything. Please take the advise set down here...don't make the mistakes that I have or that I see others make and regret....don't forget any of your friends.....even if they never speak to you and you think that they don't care....even if they hurt you, at one time they were there, and that is what it was meant to be, and sometimes things are not permanent in this way. Even if it is, try to cherish the memories, even if it's hard. Even if it hurts to remember what you have lost. If they are good memories, they should be cherished and never forgotten or thought upon negatively...I know I do this sometimes, and it just makes you more upset, trust me. Please, take this seriously. I know it's some kind of chain bulletin thing....but it's incredibly valuable....I wish I had listened before. I wish people would listen now. But I didn't. And they won't. So do what you truly feel in your heart, despite others, despite the circumstances of the world.....despite yourself.



..> ..> : Read Slowly...


Have you ever wondered which
hurts the most?
Saying
something and wishing you hadn't?, or
Saying
nothing
and wishing you had?


I guess the most important things are the hardest things to say.Don't be afraid to
tell someone you love them.

If you do, they might
break your heart...if you don't, you
might break theirs.



Have u ever decided not 2 become a couple because you were so
afraid
of losing what you already
had with that person?


Your heart decides whom it likes and whom it doesn't.
You can't
tell your heart what to do. It does it on its own........when you least suspect it, or even when you don't want it to.


Have you ever wanted to love someone with everything you had, but that other person was too afraid to let you
?


Too many of us stay walled up
because we are too afraid to care too much...for fear that the other person does not care as much, or even at all.


Have you ever denied your
feelings for someone because your fear of
rejection was too hard to handle?


We tell lies when we are afraid... afraid of what we

don't know, afraid of what
others will think, afraid of what will be
found out about us.

But every time we tell a lie, the thing we fear
grows stronger
.


Life is all about
risks
and it requires
you to
jump.


Don't be a person who has to look back and wonder what they
would have done, or
could have had.


* What would you do if every time you fell in love you had to say good-bye?


*What would you do if every time you wanted someone they would never be there?


*What would you do if your best friend died tomorrow and you
never got
to tell them how you felt? (
even if it is that you don't care anymore)

*What would you do if you
loved
someone more than ever and you couldn't have them?


*What would you do if you never got the
chance

to say I am friends with all of my family and they know I love them?*


People live, but people die.
I want to tell you that
you are a friend.

If you died tomorrow (God Forbid)


you would be in my heart.
Would I be in yours?


If you
care
about me as much as I care about you

you will send this back


You might be
best friends one
year,
pretty good friends the next
year,
don't talk that often the
next, and
don't want to talk
at all the year after that.


So, I just wanted to say, even if I never talk to you again in my life, you are
special to me and you have made a difference
in my life,


I look up
to you,
respect you, truly cherish you , most of all I CARE
about friends


Send this to all your friends,
no matter
how often
you talk, or
how
close
you are, and send it to the person who sent it to you.



Let old friends know you
haven't forgotten them, and tell new friends you
never will.



Remember,
everyone needs a friend
someday you might feel like you have
NO FRIENDS
at all,
just remember
this e-mail and takecomfort in knowing
somebody out there
cares
about you
and .
always
will..


I care about YOU !!




Send this to all the friends that you have...all the friends that you've lost...and to all the friends you've lost touch with...just to let them know that you care...send this back to the person who sent it to you if you consider them a friend

08:56 pm: A Thought
It's amazing how much a single individual can have such a significant impact on your life. It's like they are essential, and their absence can be utterly destructive to your spirit while their presence can be heavenly.

01:00 pm: Actually Accurate

Your Psyche is Violet

You are spiritual, intuitive, and serene. People trust you to rescue them from bad situations, and you usually come through. While you are quite enlightened, you find that your path is very lonely. When you are too violet: you can't connect to ordinary life or ordinary people When you don't have enough violet: you lack wisdom and can't learn from the past

08:04 pm: Wowwww
I slept thirteen hours today and I still want to sleep more! Yikesness, this is what I get for throwing off my sleep schedule!

10:29 am: My Writings
Ok, for anyone who has read my writing....I am going to submit some of it to the Sigma Tau Delta English Honors Society publication and see if it gets in and/or wins a prize. I can put up to six poems and three prose. Does anyone have any specific suggestions of what I should submit?

11:03 pm: I am damaged....

And it hurts me. :( 

08:53 pm: :(
I'm so tired of being hurt, left out, and unwanted....I seriously must be doing something wrong.

02:18 pm: YAY!
I'M DONE! NO MORE SCHOOL UNTIL THE END OF AUGUST! FREEEEEEEEEDOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!

04:36 pm: E-Death
Why is the internet so freaking DEAD today? I guess everyone has lives instead of having to write a ten page research paper. I'm blasting t.A.T.u to rid myself of some of this absolute boredom, but it can only do so much. There is no one around ANYWHERE. Seriously, there is no one even walking around outside or in the halls. Maybe it's the end of the world and I was just not informed. Heh....though I'd probably actually be one of the first to know about that...  :p   

Anyways, this really sucks. I have no life. I'm super alone. I'm super bored. And I'm listening to a song about gay boys. lol 

Yay, Dave signed on! Finally a distraction from the pointlessness of this essay!

02:16 am: I like these deeper surveys...

09:36 pm: A Very Important Message
I am so sick and tired of this drama. It's all "he/she said this about so and so" and "he/she did or did not do this or that to me" and of course the opposing party always denies the statements of the other and instead turns around with a negative statement about the person who said it in the first place. What does this solve? In fact, nothing more than temporary emotional release that will by its very nature simply build up again for a future "outburst."

One thing ends and something else begins. This is continuous and frankly, it makes me want to cry. It makes me sick. And it makes me question who my real friends are and who is being honest with me. And I doubt I am the only one who is plauged by this question and who is tired of all of this negativity.

There is always someone not liking someone else for some reason that makes sense to that person based on emotionally based "logic". Or, someone just says they don't care either way when clearly they do b/c they turn around later and say negative things. Can't people just say what they mean? Does everything have to be some kind of fabrication for self-sustanance and heightening as well as personal rationalization and justification, or some kind of negatively charged statement then followed by a contradiction? Contradictions and negativity. It's extremely upsetting. Especially among a group of "friends".

This is very sad. I would love to have a party over the summer with EVERYONE invited, but I can barely even consider this. Someone will have to hold back their hostility towards someone else, someone won't come b/c of someone else, and maybe an all out argument would break out among the tenseness. That's not my idea of fun.

This is not to blame anyone or to attack anyone, it's quite the opposite. It's a call for peace. No, it's a plea. I'm asking everyone who reads this to genuinely take a look at yourself HONESTLY. Just truly examine yourself and your behaviors and statements. Admit, at least to yourself, the mistakes you have made and see them as oppurtunities to grow, not as habits to live by. Dig deep within and release the grudges, irrational disdain for others, and hell even what may sem to be a RATIONAL disdain. Whatever it is, it's in the PAST. And if you can't get past the previous harms that others have done against you, then how do you expect those very people to get past acting those ways? Life is about change, growth, and experience. These things are largely brought about by the relationships we form with others, especially our lasting friendships. I'm not asking you to LIKE absolutely everyone. But if you don't like someone, truly know why that is. You might find out it has something to do with yourself as well as the other person. And if you don't like them, don't PRETEND to like them. Don't act friendly, say things between you are great, and then walk away to talk trash about them to someone else. If you don't like them, move on with your life. Don't dwell on your negative feelings and let them dictate your actions and words. If you really wanted nothing to do with them, you wouldn't continue to bring them up in conversation or say that you would talk to them if you get the chance to.

No one is perfect. Everyone has, at some point, said some things that they don't mean out of anger, myself included. Holding a grudge against someone for doing this, to me at least, is an act of self-denial. I'm not saying be PLEASED with it, but at least understand, as a HUMAN who also has emotions, why that person acted the way they did and said the things that they said, even if it hurts you. Realize that you are probably not the only one hurt from the situation. Angry outbursts don't come out of nowhere. They are a way of dealing with pain that can't be otherwise adequately coped with, whether that pain comes from the person the outburst was directed at or even a more profound pain that originated from within the person and was only triggered by the object of the outburst. Either way, these experiences shoudl not be looked upon as concrete unchangeable statements and actions that were rational, calculated, and certain truths. In fact, they are nothing more than irrational falacies otherwise known as DEFENSE MECHANISMS. If you don't know what those are, I highly suggest you look them up as a means of self-analysis and improvement. Everyone does them. No one is immune at all times, but if you are aware, you can lessen their control over you and have more of an understanding for why others act and say the things that they do.

I really hope that this statement reaches you all, but if even one life is changed because of it....if even ONE SINGLE PERSON decides to improve themself and TRULY work towards bettering themself and their relationship....then this will worthwhile. I invite you all to repost this or link to this and spread this very important message.
