Prayers

Remember that girl who bullied you yesterday?
Or maybe that boy who teased awful things about you?
Or those people who have let you down?

What do you do to them? Do you bully them back or let them do what makes them happy, and that's hurting you?

There's this line that says "Don't judge the book by its cover." We all know that it's about judgmental people. But come to think of it, are there people who don't judge? 

I have read, seen, and heard about people's lives. About how cruel people to them are and how they just constantly tear them apart. But then again, we can't escape the fact that people like them exist, there will always be someone who will rain on your parade.

But how did these kind of people exist?

Let's go back to the girl who bullied you. Did you notice her scratches? How bout her bruises? No? How do you think is she treated at home? 
Have you heard someone cry in your school's comfort room lately? THAT WAS HER.

How bout the boy who teased awful things about you? Did you notice how he would scratch his head in every exam? Did you notice that he would only tease you when someone else does? What if he's a loner and he just had to do everything to fit in? What do you think?

Sometimes, we just don't know their stories, that's why sometimes, we have to talk to them. Maybe they can be your friend. I know it sounds hard but there's nothing to lose, right?

Here, I pray for the lonely ones. I pray for the bullied and the bullies, I pray for everyone. I might not know your story but I know you've been through a lot, because I did, too. I pray for the abused and the abusers. I pray for the society. There might be a little chance for the world to change their ways but one small act can always become bigger. How bout apologizing to the ones you have hurt now? Or maybe thank your parents for what they have done for you because without them, you wouldn't be where you are now. Forgive the ones who have hurt you and thank the ones who have told you they will never leave your side, and proved it.

Choose: My Happiness or Yours?

We can’t deny that we’ve all been through this rough decision. You wanna go home but your friends want you to stay? You wanna buy your favorite shoes but your mom insists that the shoes she picked was better? You wanna be a teacher but your parents wants you to be an engineer? Those are just some of the hard decisions to think over. Whether you’ll go for what you want but the other side gets disappointed or you follow the wants of others and you just have to bear with it.  But to think of it, sometimes you have to fight for yourself. I mean, yes, you want to make them happy, but what about you? Are you gonna be happy? Yes, sometimes you have to think about others before yourself but it doesn't mean you have to do it all the time...because sometimes, people can abuse you for that. Would you want that? Definitely not. But then the thought that you're risking something over your happiness might come into mind. Take for example, your friendship. Yes, they

Maybe Life Isn't As Bad As You Think It Is

We all think that life is a challenge. An RP game that we are all a part of. We go through things that we think are our last challenge because we're just gonna pause it right there and not even think of a way to get over it. And now you're stuck at looking at a flat wall, and it's staring back at you. A tough life, that's what we all have. We have problems that we think will never arrive at our doorstep, but it did. When something goes wrong, we think that we rode the wrong train and there's no turning back. But maybe that's just how it's supposed to be. We've focused enough on the normal things that we didn't even wonder what's behind a mountain. We think that we're safe if we do things normally, and by doing things the normal way, there's nothing that can waver the norms. When we look at people smiling and laughing, we wish that our life will turn out to be like theirs, and we're not even thinking that maybe they have their own

If You Have Thoughts About Suicide (Like Me)

If you have been crying in your room all night wishing to end everything, If you have been waking up thinking if you can make it through today, If your thoughts are louder than the sound of your friends pounding and endlessly knocking on your door begging you to open up, If you have ever faked your smiles and your "i'm okay's" so you don't end up crying while telling someone how you really feel, If you have ever felt like a burden to anyone that you think the best way is to disappear, and If you've ever felt too much that you need to feel something burning on your skin to remind you that you are alive, you are not alone. I thought I was going to be okay. I was healing. I was meeting with my psychiatrist once every month. I buy my medicines every week and take them regularly and on time. I was on track. I was going to be okay. Or so I thought. My family does not understand "depression" and "anxiety". They don't understand w
