"Because horror on Earth is real and it is is like a flower or like the sun; it cannot be contained" - The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold The worst lies are the lies we tell ourselves. We live in denial of what we do, even what we think.We do this because we're afraid. We fear we will not find love, and when we find it we fear we'll lose it. We fear that if we do not have love we will be unhappy. -Richard Bach "Healing is a matter of time, but it is sometimes also a matter of opportunity." – Hippocrates "People fear death even more than pain. It's strange that they fear death. Life hurts a lot more than death. At the point of death, the pain is over. Yeah, I guess it is a friend." - Jim Morrison "The only antidote to mental suffering is physical pain." - Karl Marx "Close your eyes and pretend it's a bad dream. That's how I get by." - Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End "Love is when you care for someone else more than you care for yourself." -Jenny Hayden Starman Homophobia and You: They're people too! Stop the hate and spread the love! I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian. I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman. I am the sister who holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights. We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time. I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room. I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me. I am one of the lucky ones, I guess. I survived the attack that left me in a coma for three weeks, and in another year I will probably be able to walk again. I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear. We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men. I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me. I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman. I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman. I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male. I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men. I am the home-economics teacher who always wanted to teach gym until someone told me that only lesbians do that. I am the man who died when the paramedics stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual. I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I did not have to always deal with society hating me. I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind. I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love. I am the person who is afraid of telling his loving Christian parents he loves another male. Re-post this if you believe homophobia is wrong. Please do your part to end it. FUNNY QUOTES keep smiling, it makes people wonder what your up to half the people you know are below average the early bird may get the worm, but the second mouse gets the cheese hard work pays off in the future, laziness pays off now if things seem to be going well, you obviously over looked something if at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you failed experience is something you don't get until just after you need it careful with that light at the end of the tunnel, it might be another train they say the truth will set you free, but when i tell the truth i get sent to my room Pick your birth month.
