Well, today I feel the need to update.
I just releive, I am not trying to brag here, but I really am byound my age. The reason i say this statement is I relieve that high school is nothing in the grand schim of life. The people I know now I easily could not know in 5 years. Its a thought that bring tears to my eyes. But high school we lose. The only thing we grain from this period in our life is the loses. Well this isnt just true with life now but true with life in general. We live a paradox. "were dying to live and living to die." High school were sappose to find ourself. But its so hard with so many outside forces acting on us,school, work, parents, Television, society, and even ourself. They all hinder us from finding our self.
Im not trying to blame anyone for our kinda fucked up generation. But we need to start living for yourself. Yes, living for your self may include selfless acts. But the piont Im trying to state in this paragraph is that we need to stop caring about living for what we are and more who we are.
We are the people that label ourself. People will argue this to me. But were the only one that control our lifes. Not your parents not the people htat say shit about you in shcool or say good things about you. Your the one that is making them think the things they are.
Yes, there are things that are out of our control but that comes when two people try to join as one. This we call love. But thats a nother thought.
But seriously everyone, the events in high school arnt life. There is so much more then this place called Norther Va. Everyone says they know that but people dont relieve that. High school is almost over for me, thank god. And the things I have taken out of it arnt love, arnt lust, arnt all joy. There mostly pain but also a relivation that the things I thought or see most people think matter to them really dont.
The only thing we as humans really need are the three things, Food, water, and shelter. Those are the basic animal needs of us. We have desires for love and to reproduce. But so do monkeys, well atleast to reproduce. There is so much more to life then what is now.
And your not going to find yourself in those little live journal quizes everyone seems to love. Or in the people around us. We find ourself in oneself. We find our self from the pain. Were all phenoxis (sp), the mythical bird that rises from its own ashes and is born again. Humans use to believe the sun was a phenox and at night it died and its ash fromed the stars and the moon was it heart still living and it would come back in the mourning. And really we do the same. The "heart break" we have just makes us stronger. So rise children rise from the ashes of high school and become great bird of fire that you are. Soar to your dreams and if you dont have dream, well I hope you glide along and find them, But i think everyone does thats why we live, for a better future. So spread your wings and fill your lungs with the breath of life and take joy in the rebirth.
