Thoughts on the world

by tabithaa   Mar 14, 2008


An empty room can be so loud.
because when you're alone, with just yourself,
all of the thoughts you've been trying to ignore come rushing into your head.
you can't stop it.
you just think, and if it isn't pleasant, it just gets worse.
silence can be so loud, too.
if there isn't sound to fill your world,
all you can hear is the sound of your sadness.

you can hear the world falling apart,
and nobody helping to save it.
noone is ever going to help save it.
we all want change,
but we do absolutely nothing to achieve it.
we sit around and wait for the world to change,
and it's not going to.

people are still going to be judgemental,
and ignorant to the things that matter.
the things that really matter, truly,
get ignored to impress people.
it's not right to give yourself up to make other people happy.
you can't go through life trying to please people,
it doesn't work.
theres ALWAYS going to be someone who doesn't like you.
somebody who wants to make your life miserable.
and more than likely, it's because they have low self esteem or don't like something about themselves.
we all need to stop blaming other people for our problems.

when you stop to think,
you realize how ugly the world has become.
how ugly the people in it are.
maybe not on the outside, but on the inside.
you realize how much we're all suffering in some way,
and you realize how important the little things are.
you learn to cherish those things.
no matter how trivial.
you need to cherish them,
because thats the only thing that will make the world less ugly.
thats the only thing that will keep you from falling apart.

you have to think of the people that made you who you are.
the people that are helping you become who you'll be.
they may influence your choices, but you pick them.
