To live a life that doesn't feel so hard, that doesn't have so much unnecessary struggle or pain. A life that doesn't constantly push me over my limits. Where there is support and comfort and coziness. And love. A life that doesn't feel like a job, like it can only be worthwhile if there are constant accomplishments and hard work. To be able to exist safely. Wishing this dream would come true. I hope it does, for me, for you, for all of us. May our hearts feel more wholesome and warm. May life be more gentle.

In my anthropology class our special topic for the final project is death. And in that, of course, we have heavily discussed grief.
This woman, so lovely and lively and living with cancer. She has known loss time and time again. Of people, and passions, and places, and things. She has gone into detail about personal stories, and some of my peers have shared as well. It’s such an interesting environment because there’s 100-some of us in a huge lecture hall but it feels like a tiny and intimate conversation, talking about death. I sit next to my best friend near the front, both of us fighting tears as we hear the stories of others. Loss from years ago, loss that stung just weeks before. A sad topic, yes, but an important one. We talk about death in other cultures and how some see it as a celebration of life. Here, in North America, it is seen as a failure. It is almost taboo. We don’t discuss the “correct” way to grieve. Maybe there isn’t one, it feels different for everyone. But she tells us that it won’t go away. Not to frighten us, but to remind us what it means. To grieve is to have loved.
She says that you won’t have to carry grief forever, but you won’t ever let it go. Eventually, like a toddler, it grows some legs and learns to walk by your side. You will hold onto its hand and feel it forever but you won’t have to carry it on your shoulders.

I'm free. I've escaped my abusive household and I am free. I don't know what will happen next, I don't know where my life is gonna go, and I couldn't be more ecstatic about that :)))))))

Always go back to Hold the Girl. Not just the title track I also love Phantom, To Be Alive, Hurricanes and Imagining. Imagining almost stopped some of my toxic brain habits permenently. To Be Alive and Phantom uplift me and Hurricanes is just good pop.

"i do love him, i do, i do love him. I do want him, i do hate him. I want to die by his side only to be found millions of years later and be rebuilt into a new skeleton with both of our bones, his and mine. I also need to be alone"

John 3:19-20
Tumblr media
19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved.
Tumblr media
Let's be honest with ourselves; we are comfortable in our sin. No one wants to change his ways because sin brings pleasure and satisfies the desires of the heart. No one wants his actions to be judged, but rather justified. It’s why many shy away from the light, preferring to hide in the shadows.
Because the shadows promote a false sense of freedom that says that we can do whatever we want without any consequences... because doing what makes one happy is what’s most important to God, right?
The darkness offers satisfaction, but that satisfaction is only temporary.
The darkness promotes living your best life now, but this side of life is not even a fraction compared to eternity.
The darkness says to do whatever your heart desires, but the heart is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked.
The darkness wants you to drink the kool-aid, but Jesus offers a spring of living water that never runs dry, that whosoever drinks from it will never thirst again.
The darkness gives an illusion of life, but the truth of the matter is that a life without Christ is a life already dead.
And until one recognizes his need for a Savior, the dark will always appear to be more appealing, and the light less desirable. Sin, darkness, is the world's number one silent killer.
John 1:1-5
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 The same was in the beginning with God. 3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. 4 In him was life; and the life was the light of men. 5 And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.
John 1:9-10
9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
