String and Scissor

What is this life but one intricate, seemingly endless obstacle course leading us to the possibility of happiness. What is this life but one disappointment after the other, accompanied with the occasional hoorah that erases all the nightmares we call memories. What is this life but a diamond hidden in a heap of trash that the beggar digs and digs through. What is this life but one unfair commodity taken for granted until its stripped from our very core. What is this life but a string and scissor held in the hands of God. What is this life but a curse.. That turns out to be a gift to those who are patient. What is this life but the most beautiful thing that has ever happened to mankind, yet it is taken so lightly. 

Perfectly Imperfect

My best friend is beautiful in every sense of the word. She is wonderfully daring and chaotically whimsical and leaves you guessing at every turn. She is desirable, yet hard to handle, and I'm pretty sure every girl wishes she were her. She has no filter, speaks her mind, and is not afraid of others opinions. She'll never step down from a fight, which makes us a dangerous pairing, considering I am wonderfully stubborn as well. Together, we are unstoppable. We will conquer the world one challenge at a time, and no one can stop us. We are invincible. We are unbeatable, and we are infinite. I know I can handle whatever life throws at me with a brave face, because I can turn to her and bawl when everything is going wrong. Life would be unbearable without her smiling face, and honestly I do not know where I'd be without her constantly keeping me in line. I'd probably be lost in some abandoned forest, or at the bottom of the ocean or something. Wherever I would end up, it certainly would not be the wonderful place I am in now. She has helped me become the person I think I am meant to be, and for that, I am eternally grateful.

The state of nothingness

I'm being pulled in a million different directions at once and I'm thoroughly convinced that with one more tug, I'll snap. It's amazing how suddenly it can seem that the world is against you, and it's even more amazing how fast your army can dwindle down to one lone soldier. I keep reminding myself that I can make it through but sometimes i feel as if the power I possess is nonexistent and my worth just spirals down into nothingness because I'm incapable of getting things done. I know I put all this stress on myself, but you know who's going to be left with the failures that take over my life? Me.
