The sun has finally set and night has fallen upon us.

Yet my heart is uneased by the notion that this night that has come to us will inevitably be my last.

No sorrow shall I feel for I have lived the life worth the freedom that comes with death.

Shall I beg death to hear my pleas? Shall I plead and reason with death to not rip my soul from me and cast me into the eternity in which my body remembers fully?

Death is not a bargainer. Death does not simply trade your soul for nothing. Nor does Death fain ignorance for the simple minded.

My time has come and my soul I will not bargain with Death for. I have lived a life worth living and now is my time to die a death I have died a thousand times before.

This night; however lovely, will be my last. I just pray the morning will be just as beautiful.

hi, sorry to interrupt your scrolling, but I just wanted to remind you that you are beautiful and loved. thanks! carry on

“The Cinderella that the Grimm brothers collected is the one where these ugly sisters cut off their heels, and cut off their toes to fit into the glass slipper. And the prince realizes that it’s not the right bride because there’s blood in the shoe. It was very bloody. And then, at the end, the enchanted birds peck out the eyes of the sisters at the wedding– Cinderella’s wedding. So they’re both maimed in their feet, and blinded in their eyes. [Laughs] Very happy ending. That has an interesting little coda, which is that they collected it from the poor house in Marburg. They were students in Marburg. They began when they were very young, collecting stories. So they were students at Marburg University, and they heard that there was an old woman in the alms house, i.e., in the poor house, who knew a lot of stories. And they asked to see her, and to collect her stories, and she didn’t want to see them. She refused. So they paid the daughter of the alms house director. They gave her a little— she was a little girl— and asked her to— you know— “you go in and ask her to tell you a story and then you come out and tell it to us, and we’ll write it down.” And the little girl did this. And this is the Cinderella she told. And my feeling, my interpretation of this, is that the old woman in the alms house was passing on a female secret, a very, very cruel version of revenge amongst women. And she didn’t want the fine gentlemen from the University to know this kind of story. It was a kind of promise between women, between generations of women, that if you’re badly treated, you will escape. And there will be a wonderful revenge.”

Dear teen girls,

Stop abusing your boyfriends and yes what you are doing is abuse.

Stop:

Yelling at him in front of his friends 

Hitting or slapping him when he does or says something you don’t like

Telling him he doesn’t have a choice when it comes to decisions that involve both of you 

Telling him he can’t hang out with friends because you don’t like him

Telling him to not talk to other girls even if they are his friend

Forcing him to spend every moment with you 

Belittling him and pointing out all his flaws

Calling him stupid or making fun of him for making a mistake

Threatening to break up with him if he doesn’t do what you want

Being emotionally manipulative and crying until he does what you want

Accusing him of cheating every time he’s not with you

Blow up is phone if he doesn’t text you every five minutes 

Telling him you are the must thing that has ever happened to him and no one else will love

Physically attacking him when ever you are mad

Forcing him to have sex despite that fact that he said he didn’t want to

Invading his privacy by going through his phone

Getting mad at him for changing his password and demanding he tell you what it is

If a guy did any of these things to a girl it would be considered abuse but since its the other way around its considered normal. Throughout High school I saw many girl treating their boyfriends like shit. Sometime even physically abusing them in the hallways and no one trying to stop it because its a girl attacking a boy. 

Boys: If your girlfriend does anything on this list leave her. It is abuse and you deserve better.

Girls: if you find your self doing anything on this list to your boyfriend you need to knock it off because you are being abusive. 

I'm sorry.

I have always had a habit of apologizing for the stupidest things, but today the thing is not stupid. I want to be better about posting stuff on here so that more people will be touch by my positivity, but I am not good at keeping up with things. So, I need to apologize from the bottom of my heart for not being good at making sure to post. I will try to do better and try to post something everyday. I know that a lot of people dont want positivity but I think it is impossible to get through life without it. So please forgive me for not sharing my positivity as often as I should and I promise to do better!! Let's all be better and positively love better!

I hope you have a great day and remember it is never a bad day just bad moments! 😊

Bad Days...

Sometimes we as people have the worst days. Days where we feel like we can’t do anything right. Days where there is no sunshine. When we have those days we feel as though it would be better if all that pain and emotion would just go away. Likely, we won’t find any remedy to the anguish we feel. Life; however, is not the evil we as humans have imagined it to be. When everything is going wrong and nothing feels right that is when life comes in and shows us exactly what we need to see. No matter what that would be life will always come in to show us the best there is for us. We just have to wait for the moment that the clouds move and the sun shines through.

The whole self love thing is good and all but some people can’t fathom being loved. They can’t imagine there being anything good about them. So they can’t simply just stop doing unhealthy things, there’s a process.

"Never give someone a spot above you on your list of most important things. Because you should always be the most important person to you."

Today..

Today is better than yesterday, but who knows tomorrow might be my favorite day.

My truth...

Most people ask me if my life is perfect because I am happy all the time, but honestly I'm not. Sometimes life is really hard for me and I don't know if I'll be okay, but I know that if I keep my head up and stay positive that only good things can come from that. Life is never as negative as we think it is, it is just a product of our mindset.

My truth is that yeah sometimes I'm not happy, but that's okay. We don't need to continue to live life as if it's a bad thing to be unhappy sometimes. Sometimes there is not light at the end of the tunnel sometimes there is not greener grass on the other side and sometimes the sun doesn't shine when it rains. Tres humans that's okay because that's how life is. If we can learn to understand that and to accept that then we're already one step closer to the happiness that we're looking for.

So with that in mind I wish nothing but happiness and positivity for anyone who chooses to follow me. Are people who don't follow me just everyone. Because everyone deserves to find happiness and everyone deserves to know that not being okay is the most okay thing.

The start of a new thing...

So, my name is Alisha and I have one other tumblr, but I decided that I wanted to start a tumblr where I can make friends...Give advice...Help people if they need words of wisdom...Encouraging people...etc... If you need any of that please do not hesitate to ask me anything or message me. My Tumblr is a judgement free zone. 

BTW: If you are a fan of anything Korean (dramas, music) just let me know and we can talk about that! I hope that you all have a good day and don’t let any negativity get in you head-space because you are better than that!
