I smile because I dream...

Every girl is a princess and for every princess there is a prince. Every girl pictures her ideal man, whether he be a rockstar or a romeo.
I've always had this over exaggerated idea of my prince. I gave him characteristics that would be almost impossible to find in this world...but somehow, he came into existence. He wasn't perfect, but he was what I pictured. I didn't want to believe that this guy was him, but he was.

Those who have found their prince or someone close to their prince know what I'm talking about.
He's that guy you think about when something good happens; wishing he was there with you to celebrate this happy moment.
He's that guy you wish was there to hold you and wipe away those tears before they even fall.
He's that guy you want to talk to late at night when your parents are asleep.
The guy that brings a huge goofy smile on your face when you think about him.
The guy who brings a skip in your step.
He just always knows what to say.
Puts you into place when you've fallen out.
He's just that guy...


...but life isnt a fairytale...you don't always get what you want.
and that is why I smile, because I met him.
I've met my dream man.
I never thought I'd ever meet a guy like him.
Or even that he existed.
But I did.
I'm not sad because he can't be mine.

I'm happy because a person like him came into my life and showed me that dreams do exist, but the cruel world of reality hides them.

...So my message to you all is:
Never Stop Dreaming because Dreams Never Stop

RANT #1: Friends of People who are Suicidal!

Hello World,

    In case you hadn't realized, but life is VERY important. Each and every person is a vital part of SOMEONE's life. This is my issue: If you are that someone who knows or has a friend that is potentionally suicidal or has severe depression (that can be clinically diagnosed), would you want that person to kill themselves? How would you feel if right now while you were reading this or surfing facebook, that the person whom you love killed themselves (knock on wood!) .. think about it!


  What really bothers is that these so called "friends" of the suicidal individuals think of themselves as such "HEROES" by "helping" and "being there" for their friends. HEY BUDDY ! NEWS FLASH! YOU'RE NOT A REGISTERED PSYCHOLOGIST OR PSYCHIATRIST! Don't think you are so high and mighty with your imaginary big boy pants while saying that you are trying to help your friend by "counselling" them. Ofcourse, you can let them talk to you when they are sad or hang with them. Its good to keep them happy. But essentially, DO NOT TAKE IT AS YOUR RESPONSIBILITY TO "SAVE" THIS PERSON!!!

  REALITY: IF or WHEN this person tries to commit suicide, its going to on YOUR HEAD that you did not refer this individual to a medical professional who could have saved them!! You are not equipped with proper therapy or treatment techniques to help suicidal or depressed people. SUICIDE AND DEPRESSION IS A VERY DANGEROUS AND IMPORTANT MATTER! ITS LITERALLY A MATTER OF LIFE OR DEATH!!!


In the year 2000, 815,000 people lost their lives to suicide in Canada alone...and the numbers have risen since then.

Do you want your friend to be apart of this statistic?

NO? Then, PLEASE refer them to a medical professional if you truly care for their life and want them to live.

Indirectly saving someone's life could be better than directly trying to save their life.

Take Care World! <3

Freedom from Happiness

"Maybe sometimes... freedom from situations that bring happiness is greater than the happiness it brings."

Think about it rather than laughing it off ... was there ever a something or someone that made you extremely happy? But being there OR doing that OR being with them was completely wrong? ...No? C'mon, there has to be! Think harder! ...we ALL have something we regret doing but it felt good doing it in the moment. Wouldn't you think that freedom from that happiness (that later brought you regret/disappointment) is greater than the situational happiness? Even though you were momentarily happy ...well, let me shorten that sentence: "momentarily happy"... that's all you were. Now you're living in your disappointment or regret, you may say to yourself "I did it because it made me happy." But oh my friend, that was very adolescent of you... you forgot about the consequences! But I, too fall prey to momentary excitment and happiness. Don't get me wrong! Trust me ...Victoria isn't the only one with a secret ;) ha-ha!


So, I guess the answer should be yes to my question...maybe?
