I've been thinking all day what to say about the Orlando Pulse club shooting, and.. I wanna say a lot of things. For one, I'm very, VERY upset about the whole thing.
          
          I don't even live too far away from where this asshole did. How does seeing two men kissing upset you? And upset you to the point of murder?
          
          Fifty people. Fifty damn people. 
          
          There was absolutely no reason for this tragedy to happen. These poor people did fucking nothing to this man, and he has destroyed lives. He's hurt people emotionally, physically, and mentally.
          
          As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I fear for my life because of people like this. For people that feel the need to inflict pain and murder people that have done nothing to affect their lives in any way.
          
          A lot of lives were lost. And a fuck load of lives were affected negatively by this incident. By this massacre.  
          
          I don't see why anyone would want to do anything like this to anybody. There's so much hatred and violence in this world, and a lot of it is directed towards the LGBTQ+ community. No reason as to why. Just pure hatred towards us. 
          
          It's not a sin. It's not an abomination. It's not wrong. It's how we feel. 
          
          It's like if someone shot you just because you were straight. Because they read in a book that it's a sin. Or because they're repulsed by it.
          
          If it was a bad thing to not be straight, (I don't think it's a bad thing, personally) it's none of your damn business how these people live their lives. It doesn't affect you. It didn't affect his life.
          
          It wasn't hurting him, it wasn't causing him pain. And even if he felt it did, that's no fucking reason to shoot a bunch of random people who are just trying to feel comfortable. To feel acceptance. To feel love.
          
          They were in a place where they felt safe. Where they could exist without fear of being hurt.
          
          I'm just very upset, and angry. Definitely disappointed. 
          
          My love goes out to everyone affected by this horrid occurrence.
          
          Be safe.

I want a guide to people.
          Everyone is beautiful in their own way.
          Even if you're chubby it doesn't matter.
          Looks aren't anything to be perfectly honest. At least, in my opinion. 
          You should feel good about yourself. Just because you don't look how you or anyone else thinks you should look, doesn't mean that you aren't beautiful. 
          Looks are just a matter of preference.
          And even if you don't think that you're good looking you shouldn't let that control your life.
          Focus on the things you like about yourself. And if people try to put you down, remember that it's just their  opinion. You could find a movie to be fucking fantasic and another person could hate the shit out of it. That doesn't make it a fantastic or horrible movie. It's just an opinion. A person or thing isn't what one person says it is. Don't let other people and their opinions and their  thoughts define you. Be who you wanna be. Be yourself. You're beautiful in some way. 
          
          And never feel like all hope is lost. "Sometimes before it gets better, the darkness gets bigger." Bad things happen to pave the way for better things. Or so you can open your eyes and learn to truly appreciate the wonderful things in life. 
          
          I'm always here if you need to talk.
          Never change a thing about the way you look. Stay yourself.
