My wants are very minimal so why can't have them?

for the record.

"I existed long before you knew me. I've always been someone."

Love means never having to say you're sorry.

Contrary to what others may believe, there is absolute truth in that famous little quote. Other's may think that you say sorry because you care or you really truely love someone; Not saying sorry shows that whom ever you caused pain or heartache to obviously doesn't matter because of the awareness of their suffering but the complete lack of acknowledging it with sincreness.

I disagree with what others may think.

I look at it in a way I'm sure it was intended.

If you love someone, then you should never cause that person any pain. I know how this sounds. It happens, I know it does. BUT to make this statement completely valid, love shall never be pain therefore never having to say sorry. As much as I wish this was possible, it will never be. For now "Sorry"'s are the only things that mean love.

sex is not the enemy.

     I like sex. I honestly don't see anything wrong with it nor nudity. The problem is when sex is abused and "used" freely. I'm a christian and I do believe in the whole no sex before marriage thing but then again I feel that as long as two people truly care and love each other it's fine. I don't think marriage is the papers and the rings, it's a mutual bond and understanding that the love between the two is uncontional.
     I've had sex with only two people, not for the sake of me being "horny" or needing to feel loved, I thought I felt a connection with them. I was clearly wrong. My boyfriend of five months and I havn't had sex and honestly I haven't felt a more deeper connection with anyone but him. I have heard many people say that it's things like this that causes people to cheat or go to someone else to get "satisfied". My thing is how can I cheat if he's the only one who turns me on, the only one I wanna be with. Cheating is out of the question.
     Sex is not the enemy. The exploitation of sex is. How could such a beautiful thing be turned into something so negative. The bond, the connection, to feel as one.

"gayonce"

I know I just posted the videos of B in Cadillac Records and I was so moved by them. Those songs send chills up my spine every time.

BUT then I came across this video and almost pissed my pants and I just HAD to post it. :]

“Das Beste oder Nichts”

Ok, I know all I've been posting are pictures and quotes. Pictures and quotes. Pictures and quotes! But I really can't find it in myself to actually write. Write anything. About how I feel, how my day went, things that I have deep concern about which is really sad because I have a deep concern for almost everything in life. I just have so many questions that I'm sure will never be answered. I'm sorry that the only personal thing you've gotten from me is the Pop Secret post.

I sleep. I eat. I go to school. I work.

I need time to question life and to search for answers.

I love you.
xoxo.

Haters are just confused admirers who can't understand why everybody likes you.

"When I see you, the World stops. It stops and all that exists for me is you and my eyes staring at you. There’s nothing else. No noise, no other people, no thoughts or worries, no yesterday, no tomorrow. The World just stops, and it is a beautiful place, and there is only you."

Dear Pop Secret,

All I wanted to do was come home and enjoy a mini bag of popcorn while watching one of the many free movies on cable. I open up the package and read the instructions. It said to pop for 3 minutes. Sounds simple right? So I put the bag in for 3 minutes and go upstairs to kill time on facebook. 3 minutes later I hear "Shelby you burnt the popcorn and the microwave blew up!" WTF?! All this sh** happened in 3 minutes!? The same 3 minutes you told me to put the popcorn in there and my microwave blew the f*** up?! You're a f***ing liar. 3 minutes my ass and now my mama thinks I can't pop a bag of f***ing corn. I work at the movies! I make this s*** everyday and you ass****s come along and made me blow my microwave up!! And on top of that, my eyes burn and it stinks up in this piece. I really hate you right now. FUCK YOU POP SECRET!

Kiss my ass; signed,

a very pissed off black girl.

Raven: So, what's going on with you two?
Chelsea, Eddie: Nothing.
Raven: Oh? 'Cause lately it kinda seemed like something
Chelsea: Well, sometimes nothing can seem like something...
Raven: And sometimes something can be something.
Eddie: Unless it's nothing.
Raven: Nothing yet or nothing at all because if it's nothing at all we can do it to-geth-er.
Eddie: Can't.
Raven: Why not?
Chelsea: Because if three people do nothing, theeen it kinda becomes something.

Judgmental Friend

A perfect oxymoron. But is there really such a thing?
____________________

Any person hypocritical of your thoughts, opinions, looks, and/or actions is not a friend. Any person who allows your irrelevant actions affect his/her relationship with you is not a friend…

A friend is not there to judge, a friend is there to support.

Every individual leads his/her own righteous path in life. Although friends may be very close, each one still has a very separate life from the other. Do not worry if your so-called “judgmental friend” stops talking to you and instead talks behind your back because of your irrelevant decision(s). He or she will eventually find one after another to habitually criticize and hate. Anyway, what accomplishments has that person made to qualify their judgment onto you?
If you find yourself making judgments towards your peers, take a step back and think, “Am I any better? What is my purpose here? Is there a lesson for me?”. Although your intentions are not to be mean, you may end up disappointing and hurting someone who wished you for support. Your friend is not perfect and neither are you. Help him/her in whatever (s)he lacks for (s)he is willing to do the same. Stop the egotistical, temperamental attitude. And start being a true friend - show compassion. Remember, you are their friend not their parent.
.
Lesson:
Never judge your friends for they need someone to stay by their side at every obstacle.
