“”
The pain of losing out on experiences will always be greater, in the long run, than the pain of getting burned by a single experience gone wrong. Wounds heal. Sores close over. Life keeps flowing past every injury and upset that we encounter along the way. But the dull, throbbing ache of never having gone for anything – that’s the kind of pain that dismantles you from the inside out. That’s the pain that follows you through your life, that refuses to dislodge from the backburner, that slowly but surely drives you mad, wondering what would have happened if you’d only taken that one chance.

Mountains and Mystery
When I glance over at one of the countless small mountains I pass while on the road, it seems mysterious and important. It seems as if it might be a sacred place that holds an answer for me. If I interrupt my trip and turn off to explore the mountain, the closer I get to it, the more normal it looks. Eventually, when I’m standing next to it, I realize it’s just a big pile of dirt and stone. It’s dusty and dry. Occasional bits of litter have blown in and collected in the less-windy spots. It’s surrounded by fences put up by the various people who own plots of land around it and probably have long-standing disagreements with their neighbors.
The geological processes that continue to shape the mountain might be interesting, but that’s probably because they cannot be observed and must be imagined. Imagination provides its own wonder and interest to anything it considers.
So many things in life are like that mountain.
Our imagination might be the most beautiful part of the world, since it’s precisely when we imagine how things or people might be that they take on that beauty.
Once we explore anything, once we get our first job, first love, first anything, and we live with it for a while—once we actually experience something on a daily basis—it becomes normal, boring, dry, uninspiring, disappointing, and even forgettable.
Nobody remains as mysterious as we had imagined him or her to be. No endeavor satisfies us as we had imagined it would.
No secret seems worth preserving once we learn it. The keeping of a secret is precisely the thing that gives it value. Call something a secret, and everyone wants to know it. Try instead to spread the word freely, and no one has time to listen.
We are all drawn to the wonders of our own imaginings. We are all disappointed by reality.
Life is only beautiful while we imagine it to be.

I think one of the worst things someone can call you is a "disappointment."
"You are a disappointment."
It sucks because it makes you feel worthless. It makes you feel like you aren't good enough.
They're basically saying that you aren't what they expected you to be and due to that,
you're a disappointment."
It sucks.

I want to be the girl my team thinks I am.
I want to be the girl my mom thinks I am.
I want to be the girl my boyfriend thinks I am.
I want to be the girl my friends think I am.
I want to be the girl I wish I could be.
But I'm not. I'm just disappointing me.

If he’s not calling you, it’s because you are not on his mind. If he creates expectations for you, and then doesn’t follow through on little things, he will do same for big things. Be aware of this and realize that he’s okay with disappointing you. Don’t be with someone who doesn’t do what they say they’re going to do. If he’s choosing not to make a simple effort that would put you at ease and bring harmony to a recurring fight, then he doesn’t respect your feelings and needs. “Busy” is another word for “asshxle.” “Asshxle” is another word for the guy you’re dating. You deserve a fcking phone call.

When I was little I promised myself not to cry twice over the same boy
But now I'm here, on the verge of tears again
Just another way I'm a disappointment

So today I saw crows.
They were chasing a piece of a wrapper that the wind was blowing away. The disappointment they will feel when they catch it.
It was funny to stare at them though.
Does this make me evil?

Me: I was kinda disappointed with how the Lizzie Bennet Diaries ended, I didn't like that Lizzie and Darcy got together...
Friend: But, sweetie, that's how Pride and Prejudice ends...
Me: I know, but, I think Jane Austen got it wrong! It needs to end differently!
Friend: How should it end?
Me: I don't know...just... differently!!!

When I was four, I had fantasies of being a beautiful and popular girl.
When I was seven, I realised I was a boy. I cried because I was a boy and yet I did not look like all the other boys in my class - I was somehow different. I still had fantasies of being beautiful and popular.
When I was eleven, I was diagnosed with severe anxiety. I could not go to school, and left my house on few occasions. I still had fantasies of being beautiful.
And by the time I was thirteen, I locked myself in the bathroom and vandalized my flesh because I realised I was ugly.
I now have no fantasies.
