Face Palm
You know, kids, this is why I hardly ever write anything on this site that is very personal. Because some asshole always comes along and a) completely misses the fucking point and b) lectures me on how “good” I have it simply because I live in America.
The POINT of the previous entry wasn’t, “Wah, I don’t have a lot of stuff”, the POINT of the previous entry was two fold:
1) Family and friends are the most important thing in the fucking world. If you do not have that support, life will be difficult. And with family, there is NO reason on earth it should be difficult. This is a story about how things are when you DON’T have a family that GETS what family is supposed to be. Everyone in this world should have SOMEONE they can rely on. Even those who are “stoned by Mullahs” have family. If you are a parent, don’t fucking deny your children when they want to learn. Who the fuck in this world has the right to deny their kids that? I’m not talking about people who just can’t afford it, I’m talking about anything and everything your kid wants to learn, if you CAN do it, LET THEM! Stop being assholes! I’m not the only one out there who has had a “family” like this. I think it’s disgusting, you should stick together and do what you can to see that your family members have a fucking chance in hell in life. That’s the one thing anyone should be able to rely on....family. It’s the most important thing EVER. EVER. Having that support does make a difference in life whether you have a lot of money or not. And sometimes, when you do not have a family to have your back, you find little gems along the way. Those gems are people who make a huge difference in your life with small gestures, or giving advice or helping you figure out what to do next. That maybe, just maybe, some of us could do the same. You never know, as I said, what your words or actions can do for another person. Sometimes it is life changing. A 20 minute bus ride talking to a stranger can be LIFE changing for them....so maybe don’t ignore everyone around you. Feel free to speak up and get talking. You may never know what you’ve done for that person but rest assured, at some point, you will make a difference.
2) No matter what happens, no matter how hard it is, no matter how much it can hurt not to have that, don’t fucking give up. If you are one of those without a support system, it will be hard, it will be a struggle, it will be overwhelming at times, sometimes you want to throw in the towel but you can’t. Don’t give in to drugs or alcohol or some other sort of destructive behavior....keep going. No matter what. Keep trying. You may make it and you will have been the one who did it, you earned it. Maybe you won’t make it but you fucking tried. Don’t let anyone ever tell you that you can’t. Listen to those who tell you that you can. Even if it’s only yourself telling yourself that.
Jeezus fucking KRIST! Do I really have to fucking explain every last gottdamned thing I write because some people on this earth have no fucking comprehension skills? REALLY!?
Finally, if you haven’t read here for awhile, don’t fucking assume you know jack fucking shit about me. Before you leave some fucking comment telling me to “get over” myself and go help those less fortunate, take a fucking moment to READ WHAT THE FUCK I’VE WRITTEN HERE FOR YEARS before you fucking come in and judge me.
Pity party? No. I have NEVER asked for a pity party. Do some things make me sad? Yes. Do some things hurt along the way? YES. Do I sometimes have moments where I get jealous? Absolutely. But, for the comprehension impaired, it’s not because I don’t have a lot of stuff, it’s because I can see they have support. THAT’S what I would LOVE to have. You can’t buy that. You can’t even fucking rent it. You either have it or you don’t. And, as I said, when I see that, yah, I get envious...but, as I said, it makes me that much more determined to achieve what I want.
You cannot know someone from one entry on their blog or journal. I’ve said it a thousand times, it’s not all encompassing. Don’t come here and sit on your perch, looking down your nose at me and tell me how GREAT I have it. You don’t have a fucking clue what I have. And I’ll be DAMNED if someone comes in here and belittles all of the hard work I have put in to this life.
You can fuck right off for that.
