Favorite Quote:
"He’s not perfect. You aren’t either, and the two of you will never be perfect. But if he can make you laugh at least once, causes you to think twice, and if he admits to being human and making mistakes, hold onto him and give him the most you can. He isn’t going to quote poetry, he’s not thinking about you every moment, but he will give you a part of him that he knows you could break. Don’t hurt him, don’t change him, and don’t expect for more than he can give. Don’t analyze. Smile when he makes you happy, yell when he makes you mad, and miss him when he’s not there. Love hard when there is love to be had. Because perfect guys don’t exist, but there’s always one guy that is perfect for you."
— Bob Marley


The bitter truth,

No one is better than another.

Bitter truth,

No one is perfect.

Harsh truth,

You are not everything.

The world does not revolve around you.

The bitter truth,

You aren't going to be the same person you were in highschool.

You can be better.

Bitter truth,

If you don't have a great personality and just looks,

What do you have left when you grow up?

Nothing.

The harsh truth,

If you think you can get through your life by looks,

You are a gonner.

The bitter truth,

You only fail if you don't try.

Bitter truth,

Life sucks,

but you can make it better than it usually is.

The harsh truth,

You will get knocked down.

But you choose to get back up.

You will get slapped on the face when you leave highschool.

But you choose how hard you get slapped. 

You will run into walls and into challenging mazes,

You choose how you find your way out.

The harsh truth,

You will chose the life you lead.

We grow up. When we are little it is a smack on our hand and the words "don't do you dare do that again." Middle school: Drugs are bad. Life is goign to be rough. Highschool: Life is going to be rough out there, but you can make it, but if you keep acting liek you do, you will not make it. After High School: You get slapped in the face. No one taught you some of the things you have to know to succeed. No one told you that you wil fall flat on your face before you raise yourself up high. Here is most of the truths.
