Sunsets

What ho! :D Thanks for reading, guys...life's so much better with YOOOUU (CRANK THAT SOULJABOY! :D)

Anyways, the awkward greeting above is from today's Shakespeare thing, which was HILARIOUS. The guy telling us about it was perverted, which is pretty much the only thing that can crack up kids these days. He also made some references to corrupted people these days, like...Arnold Schwarzeneggar.. (did I spell that right?) and Tiger Woods. But that's another story that I won't tell you. :P

ANYWAY. I don't know why, but I started thinking about symbolism one random night. SYMBOLISM, OF ALL THINGS. AN ELA TERM!! WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME?! (No offense to ELA freaks and teachers, of course.) But I started thinking about like, symbols of God, and FORESHADOWING, and..like..friendship.

And then I thought about the EARTH, and though about SUNSETS. Now that was a weird one, 'cause I usually don't think about such...oldy dark thoughts, you know? But I had a sudden EPIPHANY. To me, a sunset means...I can't really explain it. They're just really pretty in a sorta sad way, but...kind of like..hope and regrets molded into this one fiery ball? lol.

Like...sunsets to me symbolize the end...of a day, or a year...But it's still burning bright, so it's like...don't worry, whatever mistakes you did wrong today, you'll fix tomorrow. And then you're just looking at that beautiful sight, and you...without knowing it, you reflect on your...adventures? 0.o I dunno, life. But you always have that lil bitty piece of sadness in your heart, and then you still smile with that sad look in your eyes, and the sun's just like, "You screwed up. But you still have a chance to fix things."

I'm just saying like...a lot of people want to give up sometime during their life, and to me, when I see that sunset, I have strength to keep on living, ya know? And face the obstacles life throws at you, and still have energy to pray to God. To still have hope.

Sorry for turning this all emotional, but recently there's been lots of news of suicidal girls and college students in New York jumping off bridges and 10 year olds getting married and divorced (don't ask me where I got all this news: MSN. :P), and I thought...you know, if life keeps on going this way, maybe 2012 WILL happen.

So I, Jenny, with my little corner of the big world and my blog and computer, try to spread some cheer. *AZN SMILE WITH PEACE!* Keep on living, peeps. You never know when you'll be happy again. (And I assure you it WILL happen.)

There's always a special someone out their for you, and I haven't experienced it myself yet, but...People say it's the best feeling in the world when you smile, and someone smiles BECAUSE you smiled. :) Now that's cute.

Hope

Today I just read an article about these two girls in Pennsylvania who made a pact to suicide together....So they hugged each other and died together by getting hit by one of those top-speed trains.

There were 3 girls who made the suicide pact, but one chickened out at the end. And now her two best friends are dead, so....i feel really sorry for her.

I feel really sorry for EVERYONE, actually. All the people that knew these two dead girls are probably crying their hearts out because...well, 1. they're dead, and 2. these girls PLANNED IT. TOGETHER. And no one could stop them!

The article said that judging by their texts, they were planning what days to cut class and go to the railroad track...And they obviously had to plan it, since the track was 2 miles away and they walked there, and just as they got there the train was coming.

I think that's really sad..I mean, one was going to turn 16 like the next week, and they were both really popular and pretty..what on earth would make them want to kill themselves?

However, I also think it's really selfish of them to kill themselves when they have a lot of stuff other girls don't. People are jealous of them, but most of all, people love them. Like their parents. And friends. And siblings.

You know, their death doesn't affect only themselves. If they're seriously in depression, they should go get a counselor or something. Or at least talk to someone that could help. Because their dying really hurts everyone else, and even though they've escaped life and its pains and stuff, the other people haven't. In fact, those girls just gave everyone else that they knew MORE pain in life.

I'm sorry for sounding so blunt and feeling-less, but...I dunno if it's just me, but I think that...even if you see no more point in life anymore, you should still try to live and smile each day. Because other people are counting on you. And letting them down, on top of you dying, is like...getting stabbed and then killed, and then brought back alive to get stabbed and killed again.

So therefore, you should always have some sort of hope for the future. It's almost impossible for that to be extinguished..and even if you have no hope for yourself, you can always have hope for others.
