Lies

People are always telling us that we need to stop pretending to be sad/depressed/anxious but what people don't stop to think about is that not everyone has such a great life. There are some things that you wouldn't know about people just from looking at them. There's this saying, "The prettiest smiles hide the deepest secrets. The brightest eyes have cried the most tears. The kindest hearts have felt the most pain." There is a reason as to why that quote exists.When you look at someone, don't always thing that what you see is the truth. You could look at someone and think, "They must get everything that they want. They have a perfect family." Don't think that type of shit. Okay, that person could have some shit going on at home and you wouldn't know it because they don't want you too. If you find someone who is afraid to open up, don't abandon them. Help them. Appearances lie. The people who are hurt the most often say the same lie, "I'm fine."

Those two words can have thousands of different meanings. They could be true, the person is actually fine, or they could be a cry for help. Not everybody is gonna come out and say straight up that they aren't okay. Not everyone is going to tell you what is going on in their home life or in their relationship.

Instead of pretending to care about people and lying to them, how about you take time to think about what they could be going through, or how they feel. Step outside of yourself.To those of you who already do that, if someone hasn't said it already then I will. You are amazing. You are unselfish and you deserve a god damn award. We need more people like those who put others first in times of need.

Shout out to those unselfish, loving, and amazing humans out there who don't care what others think and will help no matter what. Thank you. For all that you have done. I may not personally know you, but thank you.

This is a "shout out" to those people who think that they are above everyone else, and who, for a fact, have a good life. (And by good life I mean, your not abused, alone, your parents aren't separated, you are 'popular' and have whatever you could ask for.) Have you ever stepped down from your 'throne' and tried to look at things from a different perspective. If you have and you went back up there then fuck you. But if you stepped down and stayed down then none of this applies to you.

This is a shout out to the ones who are to afraid to open up and speak your mind. To those who are going through depression, abuse, who have anxiety, suicidal thoughts. If you are reading this then I'm proud of you. Keep up the good work of living. I know and understand what your going through. (And anyone who says I don't can suck a dick. I've been bulled for 13 years of my life, my parents split, I suffer from anxiety, depression and suicidal thoughts, I'm adopted and my family doesn't accept me being trans. Fight me bitch and see who would win.) And I'm proud that you are still hear. You may not think so but it does get better. And know that no matter what there is at least one out there who loves you.
