Within ourselves there is a deep place at whose edge we may sit and dream." -Lehrman I use this quote because we may portray to the rest of the world a different dream than the one we have in ourselves. Or, for example some people such as athletes, drama students, in highschool, they just do what they are doing for their parents, and not doing what they want to do for themselves. I personally don't have this problem, because I am very outspoken, sometimes that is unfortunate, but my parents support me no matter what and they know that even if they try to make me do something such as going to a technical college, which that is something I do not want to do, I would go to a school I where I want to learn whatever I want to. However, I know of friends that have parents are betting on their children getting an athletic scholarship to college, but then they get injured to where they can't do certain sports anymore. The parents not only feel that their child won't be able to go to college, but that it was their fault for not having a backup plan. So the moral of this post is that even if you're scared of standing up to someone who want you to do whatever they feel you should do, just talk to them and if that doesn't work, try to get others to listen to you like relatives that know you don't want to do what that person wants you to do. Then have that relative come with you not only for moral support but to help you in your talking with that person. So if you don't have another relative within distance to come with you, just ask a trusted person, a friend, a favorite teacher that knows your situation, and that goes without saying to talk to a trusted teacher about any problem that you think you can't tell you parents or friends. Everyone, have a good night, and I will write tomorrow.

I don't have a quote from other sources today, so I will use the one that's given up top. That is very true, if an eye for an eye was the law, then no one would be able to see the true beauty of life and what it can bring to us. Life is not something to be thrown away, even if a person lives their life on the streets, they need not to give up on life. Yes, they think that life has given up on them, but you never know someone could just come up and take you under their wing. There are people in this world who are the nicest most caring people there are, and you just have to look for them, and if that doesn't work, then you have to wait and let them find you. So everyone who is in dire need of help, don't give up on life, because you need to love yourself first in order for others to love you, and for you to let those people in.

Love is life. All, everything that I understand, I understand only because I love. Everything is, everything exists, only because I love. -Leo Tolstoy I use this quote because if you don't love, life really is not there. Love is life because that is the base to understanding everything that we know, what do we do when we either don't understand something, or just don't get something? Well, I usually ask someone who I trust and love on some level, now I know I don't love my teachers like I do my family, but I do love them on some level mostly as friends. Everything that exists to us is because of love, why do we have relationships? Why do we have pets? Why do we even live? It's all because of love! We usually love the ones that we have relationships with, we have pets because we love animals or we just love that certain pet, and we live because we love with our hearts. So once again if you have someone who is going through something, that they are really depressed give them something to live for, love them, don't lecture them just let them know you are there no matter what. That's why my best friend is my best friend because we just have that connection that no one can break and we love each other as bro and sis. She is there for me no matter what, even if I can't talk to her face to face I email and she gives me the best advice she can give me. Love someone today and don't let them forget that you are their friend, there no matter what, through no matter what.

In the words of Forest Gump, "Life's like a box of chocolates, you never know what you gonna get." This is very true, some of us get the really good chocolate, and then some of us get the really nasty, stale chocolate. However, we can make our own chocolate instead rather. This meaning that if life brings us down, we need to get up and dust ourselves off and try again at life. I know that it's very hard to do, but with help from family and loved ones it make the load a lot easier. Believe me I know how bad life can suck, but I have realized that even when life is very suckish, that I am not the only one who has a suckish life sometimes. I know that others are going through far worse than I am, and I make it my job to help others before myself, just to say hey or give them a nice warming smile just to brighten up their day. So if someone you know is really down whether you personally think it's either petty or stupid, just give them a big warm smile to let them know that you care.
