It really bugs me how money oriented this stupid world is.
Say my friend and I meet a guy. I'd be talking about interests and hobbies, and finding something we have in common. She'd be talking about what a nice watch he has. It's not important to me... Right now, I may not have the most money in the world, but I don't go hunting for someone who can support me. When I did have more money, I never flaunted it- occasionally, yeah, I'd buy nice stuff, but money is just good to have.
Girls and guys alike, why can't you just do something that you love to do? That makes you happy? Why does money come up in the first 5 minutes of conversation with half of my friends??
My professors believe that money is the only motivator of their students. They are so wrong. People like me have a heart, I'll marry for love and I'll work for passion.
People just need to chill out. Do something you love to do and the money will be an added bonus. It really hurts me inside to see how many people get so caught up in it...
what is religion? i hear a lot of people always use it either as an excuse or say it was god that helped me get through these hard times. Things happen for a reason, its that simple. How can one being look over the entire world. While your reading this u probly think that i am arrogant for saying it. You think that it was him that helped you through the hard times, prove it. what if it was that u were strong enough to get through the problem yourself. my family is full of christians but me im different. im not saying im a freak or goth or anything like that. I just didnt want to ask for help from anybody if i knew i wasnt going to get it. i been through alot in my life and i got through it myself. i look around seeing people all the time asking god to help them or praying something good might happen, why does he even have to listen. why should he have to grant your complaints and grant your wishes. things in life happen for a reason, not because u ask some none existent being to hell you. In the end you are the one who makes the final decision. all the advise in the world can easily be told to you but nobody can achange who you are but yourself. just live life and stop wasting time searching for the answer because its not going to be given to you.
When I was 16 i had lots of problems. My father use to hit me and go out after he was done to buy me something from the store so i wouldnt tell anyone. I started getting tired of all the crap i was going through so i started cutting myself non stop. I also use to tattoo up my body and pierce wherever to let anger out. Well none of that worked. So i would get with a guy and tell him lies just so i could live with them to get away from my father. Well i finally found someone i really loved and cared for. We found out i was pregnant 5 months later he tried to get me to have an abortion. i though about it and was gonna do it until i seen the first ultrasound. We broke up in May of 2005 cause we was fighting nonstop and one day he came to my house with two girls so i hit him. Well he ended up hitting me back and throwing me to the ground and i went to the hospital. Well june came around and my daughter was born. Every since God had givin me her i stopped everything. drugs, drinking, and cutting also lying to everyone. I thank him everyday for her. All it took to change my life was my lil girl. She makes me smile every day i wouldnt give her up for the world.
I would imagine that they call them 'crushes' because normally, when you have a crush on someone they do not have a crush back on you, hence leaving you crushed.
Soul mates. The belief that there is someone out there that completes you. Your Prince Charming. The person that can fill all your heart's desires. The one individual that you find a true connection with; that you are able to express yourself to deeply (even without words).
Do these people truly exist? Or are they just love myths?
I think that most of us like to believe in the fact that we can find someone who will understand us without trying. I know I do. I'm a hopeless romantic who always falls for the nice guys. And every time I fall for one, I hold on to the hope that he might be the one. Not necessarily my soul mate, for that would probably be difficult to find as a student in high school, but at least someone that I can have a true connection with.
So why are soul mates so hard to find? Or are they not hard to find, and it's just that we don't know how to truly look?
Do we sometimes overlook them in the rush of everyday life? Should we spend more time seeing people for what they would be instead of what they are?
Does each person only have one soul mate? Or are there multiple people who have the possiblity of giving us that deeper connection?
Lastly, can soul mates be something other than the husband/wife/boyfriend/ girlfriend types? Is it possible to have a soul mate who's just a friend?
I like to think that soul mates are so hard to find because we need to truly appreciate them by the time we find them. So on the way to finding them, we face road blocks and obstacles that test our will/worthiness.
But I also think that sometimes people don't know how to recognize their soul mates. Sometimes people are so obessed with materialism of our society that they don't take the time to stop and pay attention.
I like to ponder the possibility of having more than one soul mate. If you think about it, a soul mate is a person that you can learn the most from. Someone who can teach you about life and love in a way that no one else can. (And not precisely or always in a positive way.) So it makes sense that more than one of these people would exist for each person. That way, with each of them that we meet, we grow as people. We change. They help us become who we are meant to be.
We may not always like the change they bring, we may even be hurt by it, but we learn to deal with it. We accept it. And we move on. Often as different people, usually a little wiser, usually a little stronger, and often heartbroken. (At least for a time.)
In conclusion, I also like to consider the possibility of having soul mates who are just friends. Friends are sometimes just as close to us as anyone, and are occasionally capable of providing that same deep connection.
Either way, it is clear that such a connection as soul mates requires cultivation, it won't necessarily spring up on its own. It takes a little bit of work.
I think that, at least for now, I'll keep believing in soul mates. I'm not really sure why, but...who knows?
