All this time I thought the girl
I used to be was dead. But she’s
here, and I can protect her now.

this love's shining brighter than gold
this love is like letters in bold
this love is like out of control
this love is never growing old
you make it new
still falling for you

So it's been more than a year for those of you who've listened and I'm not sure entirely what to say. I earned a lot of money and spent a lot of money. I became closer to a lot of friends and drifted apart from a few. I had plenty of fun but was also plenty sad. I thought this post would be full of all the answers everyone ever needed to figure themselves out and though I learned quite a bit, I didn't learn enough to have all the answers, but I have a lifetime. So sorry if this gets mushy for a bit, for those of you who don't like that stuff, but you might want to indulge yourself for this one quote. I use to think that if you could make yourself feel numb that you were a success and that the next step would be growing up. but it's not, not to me at least. What I believe makes you get to that next step where you get to grow up is learning how to balance everything and to never be completely free because that means having no connection to poeple or whatever your poison is which means no connection to emotion and as far as I can tell that's the only reason I ever had fun. Some of you may want a life by yourself but happiness insn't achieved completely by yourself I don't believe, if you make a connection with animals, nature, or a higher being then you've made a connection and are therefore not alone. So to those of you looking for the answers, you're not going to find them right away but if you numb yourself and thicken your skin you'll never find them. The fun is in finding the answers and being old and grumpy and wise is for basking in the journey you took to find those answers and to pass on hints to make the road to your place easier for those who don't know what's ahead of them yet, I'm not editing this too much so that I leave the rawness in and since people are my poison and from what I can tell only raw people have real emotion then it seems fitting. I don't know when I'll be back but this isn't for you, this is for me, but if I can help my poison then I will.

Half of me is a girl who wants to be free, rebellious and reckless. Yet the other half is dominant and keeps that girl in chains.

Not that I want to be a god or a hero. Just to change into a tree, grow for ages, not

“
And maybe what growing up really means is knowing that you don’t have to be just a character, going whichever way the story says. It’s knowing you could be the author instead.

let me photograph you in this light
in case it is the last time that we might
be exactly like we were before we realized
we were sad of getting old
it made us restless

“
Maybe growing up was really nothing more than growing away: from your old life, from your old self, from all those things that kept you tethered to your past.

Pain is a pesky part of being human, I've learned it feels like a stab wound to the heart, something I wish we could all do without, in our lives here. Pain is a sudden hurt that can't be escaped. But then I have also learned that because of pain, I can feel the beauty, tenderness, and freedom of healing. Pain feels like a fast stab wound to the heart. But then healing feels like the wind against your face when you are spreading your wings and flying through the air! We may not have wings growing out of our backs, but healing is the closest thing that will give us that wind against our faces.~C. JoyBell C.

“
Just because I liked something at one point in time doesn’t mean I’ll always like it, or that I have to go on liking it at all points in time as an unthinking act of loyalty to who I am as a person, based solely on who I was as a person. To be loyal to myself is to allow myself to grow and change, and challenge who I am and what I think. The only thing I am for sure is unsure, and this means I’m growing, and not stagnant or shrinking.

When I was younger I thought we became unbreakable as we grew up. Now I know that that's not entirely false. You can't break something that's already broken.

I know I haven’t called you back in a week but I had a good reason. You asked me why my hands were shaking so damn hard and I couldn’t find the words to tell you that sometimes when two stars collide they form a black hole and your voice is my favorite song and the way your lip quivers when you’re about to cry makes my bones feel like they’re snapping in half and I love you too much to spit the black soul sucking mass of nothingness I feel growing in my chest into your mouth because you’re the brightest thing in the sky and my eyes are closed but I can still see myself burning out and I’m so sorry but I can’t kiss you tonight.

Okay everone! Time to go trick or treating!
What do you think you're doing? You're a young adult! Stay home
Dinner's ready! Everyone time to eat!
Get your butts in here and help get dinner on the table!
I cleaned up your room for you so it's all ready when you go to bed
Your room is in shambles, I can't even tell if you have a floor in there or not
Sure you can go play at their house! We're not busy
You can't hang out with anyone, you have to finish all your homework first
I really miss being a kid sometimes...too late now...
