Sometimes in life, there's these small moments. Not long, but they're really incredible moments. Pure happiness. You're just so carefree you feel like you can fly up into the clouds and never come back down again.

I get those moments when I'm normally alone. In the car, windows down, radio up as loud as it'll go, not really giving a shit who hears your playlist because you're going 70 mph and who the hell cares what you're listening to because life is so great and the wind is blowing through your hair and you're smiling, actually smiling to yourself because you've never felt so happy and you'd give anything to feel like this all the time.

But then you get home or to whatever destination you're going to and it ends and crumples away like a piece of trash on the side of a busy road and you're back to how you were before.

And that, my friends, is life. Or, it used to be. Because, well, everything went to shit in our world.

Have you ever had one of those terrible yet annoyingly pivotal moments? You know, that monumental fragment of time that flips everything you have ever known. That plot twist second that completely takes you by surprise. The one just before the storm hits and everything goes to hell. Yes? Because you see, that moment happens to be my whole damn life. It wasn't always like this though. I used to have a pretty mundane existence, happy to just get good grades and be around my friends. God I wish I could get that simplicity back, I'd never complain it was boring again. But I know I'm not going to ever get back my old life because well... I died. (Kinda) But I woke up. And I was thrilled, beyond grateful I wasn't dead. But then I realized that there was one minor detail that had changed about my reality. I was given the chance to live but it turns out I woke up as the villainess in an otome game my friend used to be obsessed with - Kingdom of freaking Hearts (I added the freaking in there for effect, it's just Kingdom of Hearts) Where, for the record, the villainess only has two possible endings 1) execution and 2) getting exiled. So Fate was like, "Don't worry, I'll save you. Here's a chance to live" and then was like "psyche, screw you. You're still going to die but I'll let you suffer a little first." So now, if only to annoy Fate by proving it wrong, I am determined to survive. I can and I will if I play by these simple rules: 1) Befriend Heroin 2) Avoid Aryn Edwards at All Costs as well as other capture targets And 3) Be the top student at the academy and become an invaluable asset to my Kingdom so I become indispensable, thus unkillable. I'm determined, stubborn, persistent and I will live passed 16. Fate made a big mistake setting me up to die. Since it threw this plot twist at me, I figure I'll return the favor. I'll be the biggest plot twist Fate never saw coming...

Sometimes I wonder if I'm the only one that drives down the interstate and imagines what it would be like to steer just a little to the right and crash through the guardrails or drive off the side of a cliff, maybe hit a tree or two while going eighty miles per hour. Am I the only one that wants to know what it would be like to feel the sting of glass shattering from the windshield and cutting into your skin, blood trickling down your face and the copper taste hitting your lips. Would I scream? Would I try to escape and call for help or would I stay frozen in place? I wonder if anyone would really even miss me, would the world be different in any way? My work would have to find someone to work the night shift, someone would have to clear out my apartment so that a new tenant can move in, my mom and dad would have to pretend to be torn apart over the lose of their eldest daughter. I don't think much would change, I have no real significance in this world. I don't think any of my friends would be too terribly distraught over it, it's not as if there's anyone I talk to on a regular basis anyway. I push down on the accelerator, watching as the speedometer hits one hundred and I check my mirrors for cops, smiling to myself when I see that I'm the only car on the road at this hour. I turn up my radio and drive the familiar roads way too fast, sometimes swerving between the lines, unable to hear anything but the music vibrating throughout the entire car.

Are you guessing or thinking human ? by CalvinTreehouse

If you opened cover of this book that means you are interested of something, maybe it was the cover of the book or some friend gave you a suggestion what to read or maybe you are part of book club and heard it from there. What sounds boring if you want to look awesome in social media but this book may help you to see life from other perspectives or you just got a new paper for toilet. Sometimes there come moments where you need to sit down and start ask question what is happening in your life, but how to do that ? Life is full of stories how you should live your life to be a happy and what to eat next morning to feel much more successful. If you are going to the books store, guess what there are hundreds of books about happiness, success and how to understand life. You could read them all year along and learn by heart and post them into Facebook to tell the world that you are the happiest person in life. But the real question is , do you understand the life as it is and are you using right data for that and do you know how to analyze that to see different perspectives, Yeah off course don't get me wrong, it is good that you finished school, got a job, bought new house or car , even if you got a new amazing meal that same day, is this still a happy life for long term ? Smart people say that simple things matter in life and we have to enjoy them to make it more meaningful, but let's be honest, would you give fuck more about a girl or a boy who is enjoying your jokes and company what you could offer with your mindset not with your phone. Are you a materialistic person or are you more spiritual. The bond between to humans are made by values what you have common and understand them on same level, not like "yeah mate I reed your last Facebook post and I feel you from bottom of the heart", what sound really great, but feels very cheese. What brings happiness in your life, Facebook ?

{COMPLETED} "now that you've had your fun electrocuting me, would you care to hop in the backseat?" ---------------------------------------------------------- Freak DNA. That's what I like to call it. The fault to my genetic code. More often than not, it's a curse. The static running through my blood gave me a name. A cruel, daunting label of a measly bug. A roach. That's what I am to them, to the government. Roach; the nameless monster with electricity for a sense and lightening as a second nature. It ruined my life, the sparking currents playing tag in my mind, running around and bumping into everything, shaking me loose. The government, actually. They ruined my life. My curse just gave them a reason. You see, the normal population with ordinary DNA, they don't know about the people like me. The roaches of the world. We don't get that kind of recognition at the camps. There, we are only one thing in the military's eyes. We are weapons and we will act like it. Everyone else out there, bathing in the goodness they don't know they've got, they don't know about the roaches their stepping on. As long as their getting closer to the sky, they don't care what they stand on to reach it. They don't know about the sparkling dreamer that's killed 7 people before her 17th birthday. They don't about the ghost of a girl peaking around corners for her entire life because even home wasn't safe. They don't know about the fighter of steel and iron sucking on his bloody lip courtesy of the wars he battles in as nothing but a shadow. They don't know about the masked villain who would do anything to see the army they lead claim the throne They don't know about us. But they will, because we will rise. And when we arrive, we will arrive violently. ___________________________________________ Started: 10.06.15 Finished: 3.17.16
