Stand up

The only serious thing you will ever find here.

Right now, life seems flat out dull. Like I'm an actress on a stage, acting as a happy person who feels just... Dead inside.

Let me tell you something you already know. The world isn't all sunshine and rainbows. And despite my current state, I told my friends what I want to be and what I want to do, and I want to tell you.

I want to break the walls that separate us all. Right now, worrying what other people think of me has been my whole life. You can't talk to this person, this person is above you, this person is out of bounds. Doing that is unrealistic, that can't be you. You can't crack the social code, not what is expected of you. You just can't go the extra mile. But you can! It isn't scientifically proven that that girl is better than you. There is no real honest reason as to why you can't talk to her. There is no true reason you can't start a youtube channel, if that's what you want. All you have to do is walk up to her and speak! You can if you only try. It sounds far fetched, but yes, it's really that simple.

And, although learning this lesson was a trial in my life, I've learned how people can coax you into believing something is ok, or something isn't. So you've got to stand up for what you believe to be right, before people convince you down the wrong path. It doesn't lead to happiness. It leads to guilt. I've learned by being a semi-online therapist that there are some lonely, depressed people out there making choices that'll only make their lives worse. They are getting made fun of, then believing the lies thrown at them, taking drugs, having suicidal thoughts. Some are even cutting their lives short. Pain and suffering is no way to live, and yet that's all we ever hear about. All the time. You never hear about that happy person, you hear about the depressed in the world. So many people have just forgotten the sunshine and rainbows through the shadows, and they think the only way out is to sink deeper into the murky depths. But the easiest option when you're depressed is to sink lower. The harder option is to create a mental overhaul; to think completely differently. The truth is: it doesn't get better. You get better.

Another thing- One thing that seems hard for people to do nowadays is to love themselves. If I really think about it, I genuinely love all and the fact that some of them are not feeling so great really really upsets me. I may dislike choices some of them make, but I like them as a person, and they need someone to listen. HELP THEM OUT. Because every person, deep down, whether they are willing to admit it or not, just want other people to like them. So like them! In any way you can, pull them out of the dark pit and show them the sun! It's not about finding who you are, it's about creating who you are!

Listen to your own voice. Your own soul. Too many people listen to the noise of the world instead of themselves. Don't compare your life with others. You simply have no idea what their journey is about. My soul says cheering is what I'm meant to do! Too many people have simply just forgotten to laugh at themselves and with others. Yes, the world isn't all sunshine and rainbows, but you don't need to focus on the dark clouds. And you certainly don't need to wade into them. Pointing people towards the light is my life's purpose! Cheer up the sad, helping unconditionally, put others before myself! Comedy is the best medicine, and some people just forget it. Someone once said "The best thing in the world is seeing someone smiling because of you." And for me, it's true! I want to see the goth kid in the corner smile through his problems, through the pain, towards the sun. But your destiny is yours, and yours alone. Figure out what kind of person you want to be. What kind of person you want to create in yourself. Then be it. Don't be scared. Just.... Try. Begin now. We are not living for an eternity. We only have this moment, sparkling like a star in our hands- and melting like a snowflake. Don't give up just because it's not going in the direction you want. There are different routes to the same destination. The sun is still there, guys. Always has been, always will be.

You are an amazing person. So am I. But I feel like our generation is just so obsessed with the idea of perfection, and we don't need to be. Don't change who you are for someone else and what they want- change for who you want to become.

Even if you make mistakes, I want you to know that you're perfect. I know it sounds cheesy, but right now you are perfect just the way you are. Perfect may seem like it cuts you short. Yes, you are perfect, but you have potential to be so much more that perfect! Genius! Hilarious! Inspiring! And for those who drag you down? You should never make fun of things that people can't change about themselves, and if someone's willingly to intentionally hurt you or make you feel bad, why would their opinion even matter? What other people think of you is none of your business.

And, despite all that, I let things get to me, even if I say I don't. Let this get to you out there: You are perfect, awesome, flawless, amazing, and overall a beautiful human being, and I love you. You're beautiful, and you shouldn't let anyone tell you otherwise. All you really need to do is stop comparing yourself. If you like you, be you!

I truly believe that if others knew just a little bit more about what others are going through, the world would be a better place. So, my goal while on this Earth is to try to stay happy. Because no one is the reason for your happiness but you. Be positive. If you want to be happy, be. I want to be so happy that when others look at me, they become happy too. And that is what I truly want. After all, in order to help others be happy you must be happy. Have the courage to exist.

You're future is created by what you do today, not tomorrow. Make today count. Make it something to remember. Every accomplishment starts with the decision to try. Someday doesn't exist. Never has, never will. There is no someday. There is only today. You said tomorrow yesterday. Yes, a ship in the port is safe, but that's not what ships are built for.

If you're depressed, my attempt at talking to you isn't going to do much.

I know that.

It's ok.

It's up to you, yes, but also the people around you to help lift you up.

You can get out.

Don't ever forget that.

I may be cheesy, I may not be funny, or in anyway humorous, but please don't try to hurt me about it. I understand I'm not a professional comedian, nor should I be. You can tell me if I'm not funny, but please in an uplifting way. I swear this is the only heavy reading here, the rest is me being 'bouncy!' And 'full of energy!' But I really needed to put this out there. If you support me in this endeavor, please tell me so, because if I don't know you like it, or agree with what I'm trying to do, I can only assume failure to brighten your life even for the briefest of moments. And what good is this if it isn't doing anything? Just.... Let me know.

In other words, jarjam.
