Celebrating

I can't celebrate my achievements because in my mind, it was my obligation to achieve them

September 30

As proud as I am to be Canadian, this Canada’s day should be a day to reflect on how our country had acted in the past. #Everychildmatters #orangeshirtday

Extraordinary means pg.316

I have this theory that life is gathering the raw materials, and when we die, we get to make patterns out of our lives and relieve them in whatever order we want, that way I can spend forever repeating the days when I was really happy, and never have to experience any of the sad days. So that’s how you live a really great life. You make sure you have enough good days that you want to go back to.

Tale of Witchcraft pg.158

There’s a voice in my head that constantly reminds me of my failures and give me reasons to fear the future. Every effort feels pointless, every accomplishment feels temporary, and every bump in the road feels like the end of the world. no matter what I do, I can’t get it to stop. I’m worried I’m going to be miserable forever. The only thing in life that last forever is the fact that nothing last forever. Just like weather people have seasons, too- we all go through periods of rain and sunshine- but we can’t let a particularly rough winter destroy our faith in spring, otherwise we’ll always be stuck in the snow.

ToW 158. Misery is like an animal, it needs food to survive- so starve it. Surround yourself with art and beauty that brightens your darkest days. Listen to music and poetry that always fills the cracks of your broken heart. Read quotes and passages that can soothe and motivate you when you feel the most discouraged, spend time with people who make you laugh and distract you from troubles. Nourish your soul and hopefully the mind will follow. However, if you find you can’t help yourself, there’s no shame in asking others for help. Sometimes asking for help is just as heroic as giving it. There are treatments and therapies and counsellors that you can benefit from- but no one finds answers if they’re too afraid to ask the questions. Don’t let your pride tell you otherwise.

Tales of witchcraft

Time is the most complex device in the universe. It’s the problem and the solution to most of life’s dilemmas. It heals all wounds but in the end it takes us all. Unfortunately time is rarely in anyone’s favor. We have too little or too much but never the time we want or need. Sometimes we’re born into a time that doesn’t value us and too often let those times determine how we value ourselves.

Mrs. Doubtfire

Dear Mrs. Doubtfire, “Two months ago my mom and dad decided to separate. Now they live in different houses. My brother Andrew says that we aren't a real family any more. Is this true? Did I lose my family? Is there anything I could do to get my parents back together? Sincerely, Katie McCormick." Oh, my dear Katie. You know, some parents get along much better when they don't live together. They don't fight all the time and they can become better people. Much better mommies and daddies for you. And sometimes they get back together. And sometimes they don't, dear. And if they don't, don't blame yourself. Just because they don't love each other doesn't mean that they don't love you. There are all sorts of different families, Katie. Some families have one mommy, some families have one daddy, or two families. Some children live with their uncle or aunt. Some live with their grandparents, and some children live with foster parents. Some live in separate homes. and neighbourhoods in different areas of the country. They may not see each other for days, weeks, months or even years at a time. But if there's love, dear, those are the ties that bond. And you'll have a family in your heart forever. All my love to you, puppet. You're going to be all right. Bye-bye.

You can reach my parents place of business. Thank you for stopping by. I appreciate your concern for my well being. Have a nice day.

My grandparents War

There was never a day so misty and grey, that the blue was not somewhere above it; There is never a mountain so bleak, that some little flower does not love it; There was never a night so dreary and dark, That the stars were not somewhere shining; There is never a cloud so heavy and black That it has not a silver lining.

Wedding speech

🪷

Have grown and bloom into a flower. The problem is being in the pot that fit you while you were still a seed. You are big in something small. In order to grow larger you need to go into a larger flower pot. Yet that means you will be small against the large flower pot. But you have room to grow. (still growing but in a small pot)

I tied my tie Buttoned my buttons Coated my coat I tied my laces Zipped up my fly And even did my hair I put tissues in my breast pocket And my anniversary watch on my wrist The whole time I was getting ready I was only thinking of you As I left the room for your funeral, the only thing put together was my outfit “The last piece I had of you was the first outfit you ever picked out for me”

Take the photo. One day, it wont just be a picture, it’ll be a piece of your life you can never get back. The tired smiles, the everyday magic you didn’t realize was slipping away. These are the moments that will matter most, the real ones. The ones that remind you just how beautiful it all really is. Even in the chaos, even in the ordinary. Take the photo, because one day, you’ll be glad you did.

Communication

My grandfather mentioned a good point to me: "People who can't communicate think everything is an argument. People who lack accountability think everything is an attack."

Survivor

"Men against women, it's perfect. I can outsmart eight men a hell of a lot quicker than I can outsmart eight women. Women stick together. They're thick as thieves. Men are deceiving, mischievous, untrusting human beings. Men, I can manipulate." #Survivor

"You had to be the adult as a child, and now you're burnt out but afraid to let go of the control that protected you."

📞

the phone doesn't work both ways because he never calls, and a child should never have to beg their father for a relationship. I am an afterthought, like an acquaintance he's lost touch with. I am the last thing on his mind. I call and call and call and call and he never answers.
