I don’t like running away from my problems. It’s a wasted opportunity to learn from my mistakes. It may be difficult to get through, but I think this is how we become a better person. I’m not saying to make mistakes on purpose, but it’s not bad to make mistakes either. It’s up to you whether to learn from them or not.

"I'm only human."
I’ve realized how much I dislike that phrase. Yes, you are only a human but saying that is a stupid excuse. If you’re going to regret what you did, just admit that it’s your fault and do something about it. Humans are much more capable of doing good things so don’t say that you’re only human because of your faults. Say you’re human because you have the courage...
I’ve always wondered how people with no shelter, no clothes, or no food could still smile. It would be so difficult living without those things. It was then that I realized that we don’t need material things to be happy. You have friends and family to keep you happy. It just got me thinking. Would I rather die happy or die miserable? The answer is pretty simple, I’m going to live...
It’s doesn’t take a genius to realize that there are so much more people in the world to fall in love with. Unfortunately, your heart makes it so that you waste unnecessary emotions and time on someone who’s gone.
Maybe people are not meant to be understood by other people. People change often so it’s unsafe to assume that a person will act the same way in the future, especially if they’re still in high school.
I’m standing alone in the rain at night. There’s nothing on my mind. I’m standing on the curb, and nothing was around me except the lone glow of the street lamp. I can’t stop staring at it. It’s so warm and bright. I feel lonely, but it’s not the feeling of loneliness that’s unbearable. I don’t mind staying like this for a while. The light gives me...
There’s always a reason why people act the way they do. Most of them don’t realize it because it’s stored in their subconscious. Some of them act out because they need the attention they don’t get at home. I think it’s normal to strive for attention because we do need attention to be successful. What I’m trying to say is keep things to yourself instead of saying...
I promised myself that I would try to become a better person. I promised myself that I would stop fooling around with my education. Most importantly, I promised myself that when I get in another relationship that it’ll be my last one. I intend to keep those promises.
I promise to keep those promises.
As a guy, I have never experienced being betrayed by someone. I have never had any of my big secrets exposed to anyone other than the ones I’ve told my secrets to. However, I have observed people talk about each other behind their backs and say things that are really judgmental. It’s amazing to say to say that most of the people I’ve heard talk about other people are girls. I...
I sat on the bench lost in thought of things such as the future, the present, and the past. I watched people go by as if they were heading towards somewhere important. I smiled at the youthful children playing at the playgrounds looking as if they had no trouble in the world. I tried looking back to the times I was like that but it was so long ago that I couldn’t remember. I was alone...

She looks tired but no one knows why. Her eyes are puffy, did she cry? Did her relationship end with a ,”Good bye”, or did someone in her family die? Well, whatever the reason I hope you move on because you’ll be wasting your time on someone who’s gone.
It’s all an act. Her smile is plastic. She only does it so that she doesn’t get hurt anymore. When in truth, people’s actions in the past have affected her in a way that she became introverted. She doesn’t want them to ask, “What’s wrong?” She’s just going through life now wondering what her purpose for the future will be. Perhaps she’ll never...
I wonder what people would think if they were able to see through my eyes for one day. I wonder if it’ll change their minds about how they think I am. It’s not as if I act the same towards everyone. Would they still respect me? Would the ones that don’t have respect for me, give their respect towards me?
I think I’ve rediscovered my passion for piano. When I started playing again, I could feel the adrenaline rush when I play those beautiful melodies. I can say I’m glad to have another thing to keep me occupied other than being on the computer all day.
Discipline to me means to be able to hold yourself back despite the situation and being able to focus. I think it’s attractive for girls to have discipline, especially in their work ethic and ever time they’re hanging out with people. When you grow up, you can’t just talk shit about your co-worker just because you don’t like them. You’ll just end up getting fired....
She’s beautiful, but you know what? She’s not you. She doesn’t have your intelligence, your morals, or your personality. She doesn’t make me smile nor would she ever make me smile like you do. I know you hear all of those sappy, corny stuff about love but this, to me, is real. It’s what I truly think. You’re unbelievably amazing and I hope you realize that...
It sucks knowing that the only person that you want to be happy isn’t as happy with you, as they are with another person. I’m not going to lie, it hurts. It hurts knowing that they’ll only be a goal that’s impossible to achieve. It hurts thinking that they’re happier with someone else. It really fucking hurts.
I’m a guy who wants to succeed in life. I want to succeed by focusing on what’s important. I’m tired of being inadequate and disappointing everyone. I chose to do something about it by trying to be a better person. I chose to try to understand everyone’s point-of-view and help everyone I can. I chose to focus on school, while at the same time having time for people that are...
I believe everyone is an amazing person. You just have to understand them and know how their life truly is behind the scenes.
Confrontations are difficult, yet they’re necessary to have a good relationship with someone. It’s an important skill to master. You can prevent any arguments from happening if you manage to master it. On the other hand, it can make situations worse if you don’t have good confrontation skills. You might as well learn to confront people now to lessen mistakes later.

I feel like a broken clock sometimes. I’m stuck in the past and I can’t seem to do anything about it. I want to keep going but there’s something holding me back. Perhaps I have no energy left, maybe I’m just broken, or maybe I just have no reason to keep going. No, I’m just broken. I know I have something to keep me going. Some day, someone will fix me and give me the...
Jealousy is like a disease. It’s an evil monster that brainwashes you, erasing your rational thinking and your morals. It has the power to turn you into something that you thought you would never turn into. This monstrosity has been around since the first people were born. A monster that’s hard to beat. However, once beaten, it’ll most likely be easier to confront later on.
A typical story about a boy and a girl.
There was a boy who was always depressed. Eight grade was one of his worst years until he met friends. His circle of friends had begun to expand. He didn’t think that it could get any better, but he was wrong. He met that special someone and they talked everyday. The boy wasn’t sure if the girl he liked liked him back but he still took the...
A friend is not always necessarily a person who you’ll see on a daily basis, or someone you can turn to whenever you’re in need. Sometimes there are friends who go absent for years (sometimes it’s you), but in the event of spontaneous reunion, both individuals can easily continue where they left off. That is the beauty of genuine friendship: when a relationship breaks off in two directions, with...
I believe people have the need to dominate over someone. It’s a psychological need that we need to try to achieve. I don’t know it it’s generally a bad thing or generally a good thing but there are certain situations where it can be bad or good.
The feeling of being better than someone truly is a good feeling, but don’t get let it get to your head.
I’ve noticed that I assume that a girl isn’t nice if they don’t smile, so smiling more might make you seem more friendly. I also think that nice girls do things for other people because they’re happy to do it and not because they want to take advantage of other people. Nice girls do nice things because it makes them happy not because they want something back in return.
It’s good you apologized for the mistakes you’ve made, but the fact that you keep doing it makes the apology an excuse for your mistakes. An apology means that you regret what you’ve done and that you’ll try your best not to do it again. I realize that we are human but if you keep doing it over and over again, your apology means nothing.
I don’t really like hugging people that aren’t close to me. I don’t like physical touching unless it’s someone I’m really close to, really. Hugs are a symbol of love and hugging someone that you don’t know very well might make you seem like a creeper. I’d rather give you a hand shake if I don’t know you well enough, even if you are a girl.
I don’t know what will make you smile, but that won’t stop me from trying. There’s just something about you that makes me happy whenever you’re happy.
Promises
I’ll lose my trust in you if you break promises. Especially pinkie promises; I know you may think they’re silly, but to me they’re something that should be made a high priority. It doesn’t matter if they’re pinkie promises or not, they’re still a promise. It doesn’t matter if it’s a small or big promise. If I trust you enough to tell or...
Sometimes, I need to vent physically. When something bothers me so much, talking doesn’t really help anymore. I need to take my anger or sadness out on something. I get scared of it sometimes because my mind becomes clouded and I don’t think rationally. I just want to make things clear: there are rare times when I lose control of my emotions; there’s really only one thing you can...
Out of all the people in this world, I sometimes feel like I only need to talk to one person. Someone who’s trustworthy, kind, intelligent, and entertaining. I just want someone who won’t leave, someone who’ll respect me, and someone who’ll be there for me when I need them.
Sometimes, the person who tries to keep everyone happy is always the most lonely person, so never leave them alone because they will never say that they need you when they really do.
