I have best friends, that love me. I have a family, though right now it's bruised, that love me. I have a home, that doesn't always feel like a home, but it's mine.
The last month or so has been the worst of my entire life. My parents have decided to get a divorce. I was, of course, completely confused and beyond upset. I didn't know what happened and I wasn't sure what to do. I just wanted to try and get my parents back together. But there wasn't anything that I could do. I mean I could have talked and cried and begged my mom and dad to get back together but what good would it have done? It would have done nothing but hurt everyone worse. My dad is now dating someone... and my mom is doing her own thing. She hangs out with her friends a lot and they are both happy. So it's alright with me.
A few days after everything with my parents happened, my grandma was put in the hospital. She broke her hip. She's fine now though and she's up and walking. Her sister died a few days ago, but she's going on like her sister would want her to. Also, my uncle died of cancer. He had a heat attack and that's when they found the cancer but it was to late.
My brother moved out, so I only see him at school. I get to see him some weekends but he's only at home long enough to get him some more clothes.. He's now living with my dad.
I wrote something on my facebook page not to long ago about how sometimes life isn't fair. I'm going to put that on here:
In my 17, almost 18, year’s I’ve learned that sometimes life sucks. Something’s happen that you really wish didn’t and then other times you wish you could replay moments when you loved life the most. I’ve also learned that nothing will be perfect. I’ve had my heart broken and I’m sure that I’ve broken a few myself and I’ll probably do it again without meaning to. I have friends and family that love me for the stupid things that I do sometimes and I have those days where I don’t even feel like breathing. Sometimes I don’t want to get out of bed because I know the day wont get any better or just want to stay in bed because I just hate my life at that moment. I have done things in my life that I wish I hadn’t done but that I’m glad I did because I learned from it. Sometimes life isn’t perfect but God wanted it that way to teach me something. He’s my strength when I feel like I have nothing. I may not live the way I should or I may not have something’s that others have but I do have Him, my parents and the best friends I could ever want. And thats all I could ever want. And that’s all I could ever need in life. Some day’s I may not want to smile or sing or dance like I usually do. But I will live the way I should and I know that I should. Life isn’t something that you do for kicks. It’s something that you have to make for yourself. And that’s what I’m going to do. My life isn’t a colorful rainbow but I will make it just as bright. I don’t have a lot of money but I will be rich with happiness and faith. I don’t need people that pretend to care because I have people that really do. And I don’t need a guy to make me happy. I just want one to make me look smarter (sorry if that’s offensive to some guys) but I love my life. Sometimes I may hate it but I have everything to make me happy. My parents, my best friends, my other mothers, my aunts and uncles. No matter what I know these people and many others are ALWAYS going to be here for me. And for that I say I love you and thank you so much for everything you’ve done for me.
I know life isn't always going to be fair. And that's okay with me. When life finally starts to go my way, I'm sure that means the world is probably going to end. :)
Lately, I've been talking to a guy that I've already wrote about on here. He would be the guy that I said I fell in love with. I still believe that. I don't know if he'll be my prince charming, and I don't know if I'll end up being his Cinderella. But one thing I know for sure, I do love him. And I always will.
When I look back on my life the past few months, I feel sadness but I also feel happiness. Life isn't a guaranteed thing. It can be taken or it can be given. Live your life as if you would die tomorrow.
That's all for now.
