This is a war we live

the end

I've figured some things out, and this will be my last online journal entry ever. I no longer need it as a moping tool.

I am depressed. I didn't want to believe it for the longest time - I thought that admitting it meant admitting defeat, or that it would swallow me while.
But, by admitting it is true, I am not:::
-using it as an excuse
-wallowing in it
-giving up
-showing defeat

I am, saying that it is real, and it does exist in me.

Maybe there is no cure. That is a large possibility. People that say they've been cured might just have woken up one day and said "okay.. This is it. I'm not going to live like this anymore." and just ignored all the feelings from then on. But at any rate, I don't believe that there is a cure to depression. I am not hopeless, and I am not giving up (that's not to say that I don't want to give up, it just means that I'm not going to decide when it's over). I am going to keep living each day for God, and (trying to) do all He asks of me. Maybe he's using my illness for a greater purpose. I'm not going to lie. Living is extremely hard when I don't really want to do it. My wish is not for a cure, not for happiness; but for the ability to cope with it, and to stay content with where I am. I hope this is the right mindset. My hope is that You will use me for Your purposes, and not for mine. I want nothing to do with false promises of "It will get better", or ""This will be over soon". Maybe it will get much, much worse. or maybe I'll live forever. Whatever happens, happens for a reason. It might not ever benefit me, but there is still a reason for it.

Medication might not work; counselling could be a waste, needles in the brain may make it worse. So.. All we can do is look forward to the end, and keep serving God until he takes us there.
Yeah. It is realy hard. I am struggling. I would much rather be with Him right now than being here. But I will keep striving for His best in my life, and I will continue on in hope of eternity with Him; whenever that may come. Five is an okay place to be.

2 Timothy 4:5-8
5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.
6 For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand.
7 I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith:
8 Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.

so. not only do i get to pay $75 for a CPR course i already haev, and that is included in the course i'm taking now. I also have a 7-hour swimming day (after school that is), a 10 hour day, and those are followed by a 12 hour day (including 3 exams). THEN, I'm half done my courses for swimming.
awesome. ( I am a little bitter because they just added 10 hours onto what i already thought was a lot)

1. Shuffle your playlist.
2. Of the first 25 songs that come up, no matter how embarassing, put your favourite lyric on your LJ. Try not to include the title.
3. Open season to your f-list to see who can guess the most songs.
4. Strike the songs off as they are guessed correctly.

1. Used again, but nothing's different, she'd stay the night but knows he doesn't care.

2. My calendar is full with blood-red x's for every 24 hours I've suffered through.

3. They say so many things, they tell me I am fine. Believe me I try.

4. So he took his life at the age of 23. And she had always loved him, but she would never know.

5. ~~I think it's going to rain, it's going to rain, rain down.~~Thursday - Paris in Flames (valenski)

6. you'll pay for everything you've done if you could die i'd be the one with the gun

7. and i pray for you to find the peace you've been longing for.

8. ~~I've never been so lost, i've never been so much at home.~~Something Coroprate "I woke up in a car" (Valenski)

9. i'll be sleepless. so cry yourseld to sleep, this is about broken hearts. this is about me. bending again for nothing. i'd run to you but pain awaits. i'm coming home but i'll be late.

10. We're so vain, aren't we? we're so proud and empty.

11. cause you can't put life back into this hopsital ward.

12. ~~I'm willing to break myself, to shake this hell from everything I touch.~~ Something Coroprate: "break myself" (valenski)

13. ~~Running away from this earth. May it pass away in the beautiful flames that it was created for.~~ Norma Jean; The entire world is counting on me and they don't even know it. sleepersawake

14. I woke up yesterday with a hole in my chest, yet I feel no pain.

15. a failure that mirrors itself with a foriegn stare. hold it together, you'll find your peace.

16. By the time we hit the ocean floor, we'll jump little girl, jump little girl down to find the undersea sun.

17. I'm sorry, but I'm gone. I've got a bad reputation to think about. I've been dirty, I've been wrong.

18. Five stories falling, forever and ever, three cheers to the mirror, now there are 2 of us. can we have one last dance?

19. walking like eachother's ghosts around these silent streets, the sedatives tell you everything is alright.

20. This is just the inbetween, the point where worries can shatter dreams. This is the look like i'm going to throw it all away.

21. Only the lonesome love us. only the careless can handle us.

22. Take what I have, these broken remains... you laid down your life when i refused to give mine.

23. I've bled these nights dry with tears.

24. my heart fails, time and time again.

25. I don't want to smile right now, thank you for your concern,

hahaha it took me like 4 years to fill this all out. NOW you ALL BETTER FILL OUT THESE THINGS. i made it so that EVERYONE and not just friends can see it.

Okay, This is not a direct attack on anyone. THis is not an indirect attack on anyone. I'm speaking to myself as much as anyone else here.

Right now I feel like being blunt, so I have no use for 'cabalistic' styles.
I'd rather not wonder if I should get stitches every night.
I'd rather eat lunch.
I'd rather smile than frown.
I'd rather laugh than bleed.
I'd rather love than hate.
I'd rather find strengths than weaknesses
I'd rather be happy than sad.
I'd rather beat winter depression than not.
I'd rather be myself.

It's a choice, everything is a choice. I can choose to do all the things I should. Sometimes it's hard when everyone seems to be doing completely the opposite of that, when more of my friends are ~~anorexic~~ 'dieting' than not; when most of the people that helped me out of cutting are now walking wounds. Maybe I'm going to have to be alone to be happy. But then can I really be happy if I am alone? Now I'm pertty confused.
So I've decided to start a happy colony. If anyone would like to join, please feel free :)

Okay, Usually I'm really worried about upsetting people. But I've let this go on for too long.
This applies to myself as much as anyone else.
STOP LIVING BY THE WORLD'S STANDARDS!!!

If your friends are watching a movie that you know you shouldn't watch, bake cookies! don't watch it!

If people are talking about someone behind their back, DON'T JOIN IN! say something good about that person!

If you're tempetd to go past first base, DON'T. DON'T EVEN LET YOURSELF GET INTO A POSITION WHERE YOU COULD

If someone wants you to go get tight with them, STAY HOME. Clean your room, hang out with your parents, do something you've been putting off forever.

I'm so sick of everyone compromising everything just because 'everyone else does'. well, you know what? THAT'S NO EXCUSE!!!
Sometimes I wonder if anyone really TRIES to live up to God's standards, or even their own.
Well, I don't care anymore. I'm going to try to live to God's standards, and I'll do it alone if I must.
I stand alone?
THat's okay.

it's time.

Fri, 05 Nov 2004 21:34:00 GMT

okay.
i need a break from live journal.
2 weeks at the least.
see you then.

Tue, 28 Sep 2004 00:27:21 GMT

okay.
I'm done moping.
every time i write a mopy entry, some one has to shoot me. or ground me. or SOMETHING.
thank you very much.

i've bled these nights dry with tears

Fri, 24 Sep 2004 01:53:04 GMT

I have issues with...

law
ambivalence
identity
persecution
health

Take Word Association Test

"silence, silence was the last word we spoke
it filled the air heavy with forevers
and the failing smells of yesterday
'this wasn't my intention...' is now a haunting
the ghost of whispering thoughts
i've bled these nights dry with tears
so here's to sleepless cold and dreams of insecurity
and like before i'm left with silence and the sound of a heart breaking
its pieces crumble to the floor
promise falls quiet between stillness and silence
i hear your voice say, 'my child, i will pick up the pieces'
promise falls quiet between stillness and silence"

i'd burn this city down..

Tue, 22 Jun 2004 19:37:13 GMT

replied by holding you up
in red skies bound by love
let’s set this city ablaze
we’ll learn how to start a fire
shine so bright we burn in eyes

interesting...

Mon, 14 Jun 2004 02:47:27 GMT

ehhh... creepy.

Mon, 26 Apr 2004 03:04:44 GMT

well this is my new livejournal.
I decided to become a conformist, because Ujournal is getting pretty lonely.
That's all I have to say for now.
oh and it will be friends only, because I am just that personal.
