The unforgiven Part One

*Crash* I open my eyes and dart out of bed, trembling. I turn my head and look at the clock, 4:03. Oh no... I slept in. I could hear the foot steps coming up the stairs. I braced myself. Thud, thud, thud, thud. 17 steps exactly. Thud, thud, thud, My heart races more and more each step. How could I have been so stupid? Thud, thud, thud, thud. Its been two whole days since I screwed up. Thud, thud, thud, thud, I wanted to go back in bed and hide under my covers like I did when I was younger. Thud thud. That was the last step. I could feel tears already rising in anticipation. Thud, thud, thud, He is stomping on the hard wood floor.. He is angry. I stared at the door knob. I watched it turn slowly in my head. It seemed my whole life had always been in slow motion like some horrible car accident that never ended in the sweet relief of death. The door opens and hits the wall in the same place it always does. Leaving that same whole in the wall that is left in my heart. He has been drinking, I could smell it. How could I have made this mistake. Such a bad mistake. He didn't even blink before grabbing me by the arm. His fingernails were never really long but it pierced my skin like a fresh needle. I could already feel the blood rush down my arms. I am so stupid why didn't I wake, I don't understand.....

Love is Love

I know the world has come such a long way.... Yet it seems we are so far behind. Discrimination is an ugly thing that will never die. Whether it is race, looks, religion, or sexual orientation. I would love to believe that one day all the hideous things on this planet would be gone, but I cannot be that ignorant nor naive..... I don't understand how gay marriage is still not fully accepted to this day... People always throw the religion card. But if people sat down and thought about it, marriage is about love, not religion.. People who don't even have a religion get married all the time. So why can't two people who complete each other, and love each other get married? Why does anyone care? True love is one of the rarest things to find. So if two people find it, why can they not celebrate it? People bring up the bible, many things about the bible are unconventional. It was written so long ago most of the things in it aren't relevant, And even if you do fully believe in the Holy book, there is no reason for you to push your religion on other people. A lot of people feel strongly against homosexuals marrying yet most of their hetero marriages are falling apart. I think everyone should just sit back and think if they really have the right to interfere with true happiness?

Formspring


So the new thing seems to be formspring. I personally do have one. It is a test to humans curious and cowardly nature. It boosts and destroys self esteem in the matter of one post. People seem to get so upset when people hide their name, yet that is kind of the point of the whole website. (as messed up as that is) If you don't like it don't have one. Still I think that people would be a lot more respected if they were just honest with people. You may not be liked but at least people would have respect for you. When one of my friends got something harsh on formspring I couldn't understand why they were upset... Until the first time I got one. I am pretty confident but I think the more confident you are the harder you fall sometimes.. It makes you think why don't I just delete this so I don't have to deal with that stuff. But as a normal human-being your uncontrollable nature won't allow it.
