I (Probably) Don't Know What I'm Doing

Love, Friendship, and The State of Being

1. Be respectful when stating opinions and be open minded and understanding please. 2016 has been hard enough with all the movements and shootings and elections, please just be accepting.
-Love is love: It doesn't matter if it goes against your religion. If it's not affecting your life then you have no say in it! They are not harming you in any way. Just ignore it and go on with lot life.
-Try not to be racist and stereotype people, there are some really nice people out there.
- Speaking from experience, surround yourself with a diverse group of people, men women, gender fluid people, transgender, no gender, Buddhist, Christians, atheist, Islamic people, agnostic people, jocks, weirdos, nerds, preppy people, outcast,people of varying orientations; gay, lesbian, bisexuals, asexual, pansexual, Demisexual, people of varying race Asian, Hispanic, white, black, feminist, liberals, democrats, republicans, independents, ect. It doesn't matter... It shouldn't matter. People are people and that's how they should be treated. Learn from these people respect them.
-A Friendship should NEVER, EVER, be judged or put to the test by ANYTHING listed above you accept people how they are or not at all.

2. "If you're a lover you should know, the lonely moments just get lonelier the longer you're in love, than if you were alone. Memories turn to daydreams become a taboo."- House of memories Panic! at the Disco (link above)
- Other songs I would recommend at the moment;
-Panic! At the Disco: Impossible Year, C'mon, Sarah Smiles, Memories, Golden Days
- Twenty Øne Pilots: Screen, Oh Ms. Believer, Not today, Polarize, Run and Go, Forest

3. There are a few levels of friendship and it's weird because you can feel one way and the other person a an feel another way, but we all find our friends and you're never alone, heck I'm here if you want me to talk.
- Best friends: They're closer than family. You can trust them and tell them everything. They'll be there for you no matter what. You know their darkest secrets and they know yours and you can be your self around them and they'll tease and love you for it. (Bonus points: their family gives you a weird nickname and introduces you to other people with that name)
-I happen to have three but I don't get to talk to them much because they all live hundreds of miles away... :(
-Good friends: The ones who are there for you sometimes, you could be there and support them every time but they are still more concerned with their best friend. Good to have around but kinda sad too.
-Friends: They come to you for support once in a while but not really and you can talk everyday and still not really know that much about them.
-Aquantences: You don't know anything really personal you just talk about causal events like the weather or work.
-It's good to have a few people who are just there to not care about how you feel and just talk about stuff and get your mind off of things.
-Friends of friends: Those people who you don't talk to or know who they are (you may not even know their name) but they're friends with your friends so you jut go with it.
-Very rarely do you ever have people stay in this stage for a long time, they usually either become Aquantences because you talked to them or they fade into strangers.

4.Theres that feeling that exist that's just kinda beige or gray, kinda numb,where you're not extremely sad, yet not happy, kind of content with the situation given, where there's slight sadness in the back of your mind but everything is still okay.

5. It's really cliche but, remember that it gets better eventually.
-You may feel absolutely horrible but slowly you'll comets that pin where you're like "Hey you know what this isn't great I still feel kinda bad but I'm better than I was before so I'm okay." (the feeling explained above)

6. Go hang out / talk to little kids when you get a chance.
- Yes I know it sounds creepy it wasn't supposed to, My apologies.
- Talking to kids give you that feeling of Nostalgia and just asking them for advice can help because everything is so simple to them. It makes you think back to how you were when you were little and how easy everything was.

7. Go to the park, swing on some swings it helps. (With friends is great)
- The feeling of weightlessness is amazing.

8. Cook something. (Best way to strengthen a friendship)
-Cake, cinnamon toast, pasta, whatever floats your boat.

9. Pets, houseplants, and things you can take care of are great.
- I prefer plants and fish, because my siblings bare allergic to fur, and they also don't make that much noise.
-I would like a dog though they're so fluffy and cute, they make great listeners too

10. Make people happy
- smile at people, compliment them, do charity work when possible, tell people when they're important to you and that you care, give your friends gifts on holidays (even if it's just a card or a poem or something expensive or something for the dollar store, even just call them to wish them a happy whatever and that you hope they're having a good one) it doesn't matter what you do just do it to let them know you're happy to be friends with them during the holidays .

11. It's okay to be alone, you know?
- you learn more about yourself you can put more time into the things you enjoy. Take a break, forget about your friends, your family, the rest of the world, even for just an hour. Remember the past, your child hood. Think about your favorite things, food, music genres, types of books, things to do, places to be, just think. Go crazy, be the side of you that no one sees, daydream, sing, dance, laugh, smile, do flips and tumbles, spin around in circles until you get so dizzy you need to hold onto something, focus on you for a bit. It may be difficult but if helps.

12. The world is forever changing. Learn as much as you can while you're young whether by textbook, people, experiences mistakes, the things you learn and your memories are the most cherished and valuable things you can have.

*Author's Note:
Hey guys! I'm sorry it's been forever since I last posted anything, school has been so stressful and I don't have time to do anything really anymore. But if you're still reading Thank You for all the love and support. Sorry if this chapter is wired I'm getting used to wattpad's new format and it's acting a little glitchy. It also doesn't help that I started writing at around 1:30 in the morning and now it's 4 am... Hmm, so yeah.... I can't sleep. Oh Whale!?!?
