54. I’ve Tried to Make it More
I have tried so hard to be a better person, but I still can't. That's because I'm a moon that has lost its light. I'm the one who should be shining, but instead, I'm just dimming. I try so hard to be kind and generous and loving, but it doesn't matter because no one sees me for who I really am. They just see what they want to see, which isn't me at all.
Tumblr media
Do you know how sometimes you just want to give up? How do you feel like there is no point in doing anything but accepting your fate? That's how it feels right now. But then you look at the moon and think that when it shines brightly again, people will look at it again in wonder and awe. When they do, they will see the real me - not some pale imitation of my true self - and everything will be okay again.
I've been trying to make it more like the moon. I'm not sure what you mean by "the moon," but I'll try to help you. The moon is a significant part of our lives. It allows us to see at night, even though it's always a day to us. It also gives us new life, because when we see a full moon, we feel like everything will be okay.
Tumblr media
I try so hard and it's still not enough. I want to be a better person, but I'm not. I want to be more helpful, but I'm not. I want to be less selfish, but I can't. It's hard for me to do any of these things because they're all so important. And yet they're all things that are really easy for other people to do. I've tried to make it bigger and I've tried to make it smaller, but I can't because there's always more. It's been a busy year, but I hope to get back into the swing of things soon.
I try so hard and it's still not enough. I try so hard to make you happy, but somehow I always mess it up. I try so hard to be your everything, but somehow I always fail. I try so hard to make you proud, but somehow I just can't. You're the only thing that makes me happy when I'm sad, and the only thing that makes me smile when I'm scared. You're my world - the sun in my sky and the stars in my night sky. If there's anything that makes me feel complete, it's knowing that you're here with me.

53. Full of Personal and Sometimes Pathetic Details
Writing can be a bit of a challenge, but I've had some success with it. I think the hardest part is having to be so honest with yourself. You have to trust that your words will be read by someone else, and you have to trust that they will like what they see. It's hard to put yourself out there like that when you're writing about things like the moon or your feelings about your dog dying.
But I think there's also something really rewarding about being able to share those kinds of personal details with other people, and what I've learned from writing is that it's okay if sometimes people don't understand where you're coming from or why something happened the way it did—it's not even really about them. It's about learning how to communicate more clearly with yourself and others.
Tumblr media
If you ask me, the moon is one of the most beautiful things in the world. It's a thing of mystery, yet it's also a constant reminder that we are all connected. The moon is a symbol of change—change in our lives and in our minds. There are phases to the moon, and when we look at the moon, we see not only a reflection of the sun but also what's happening within us. The phases show us that time passes, that our lives go on, and that we're never really alone. They make me feel like I'm part of something bigger than myself, part of a vast community that has existed for centuries and will exist for centuries to come.
Sometimes the moon is lonely; sometimes it has its own light show; sometimes it seems so far away that there's nothing but cold space between us. But no matter what happens with its appearance or how often we see it rise or set, I know that there are people who love me as much as I love them: my family, friends, teachers, and even strangers who have been kind enough to listen to my story when no one else would care enough.
Tumblr media
The moon is my favorite part of the sky to look at. I like its roundness and softness, and the way it changes color throughout the day. I wonder what it would be like if I lived on the moon and had to live without the sun. Would I love it as much? Or would I be bored?
The moon is beautiful. It's a reminder of how small we are in the grand scheme of things and how fragile life can be. The moon has inspired me to think about mortality and how much I have left. The moon is also a beacon for people like me who don't have anyone to turn to for support when things get tough. It can be comforting to know that there are others out there who understand what it is like to feel alone and disconnected from the world around you.

52. A State of Constant, Light Depression
I have noticed that I am constantly in a state of mild depression. I don't know why or how it started, but I have been feeling this way for as long as I can remember. I can't pinpoint the source of my unhappiness—it seems to be a constant at all times, whether I'm happy or sad or just thinking about what might be. It's become such an issue that I've been told by my friends that it's affecting my behavior and productivity.
Tumblr media
The only thing that seems to help is finding the right outlet to vent my frustration and sadness. Sometimes it's writing in a journal; other times it's listening to music (or silence). Sometimes it's talking with friends or family members who understand how hard things can get sometimes—other times it's just taking a walk around the block where there aren't any people or cars so that you can let yourself relax enough so that your mind isn't racing at all times with thoughts about what may happen next or how things could have gone better last week when trying something new—or even worse.
Tumblr media
The moon can be a source of constant, light depression. It is always there, and it never leaves. This makes me feel like I'm always waiting for something that will never come. This is the feeling that comes from staring at the moon while you're thinking about your problems. It's not like I can go out into the world and make people happy because they don't know how to be happy on their own. They've been trained to expect happiness from others, so they have no idea what to do when they don't get it from me or anyone else. The moon is a constant reminder of this fact.

51. Find Comfort in Each Other’s Existence
I remember when I first saw the moon. It was a bright, clear night, and I was sitting on my back porch with a friend. We were talking about our lives and trying to figure out what we wanted to do with them. She asked me if I thought she'd ever be able to find someone who would love her like she loved him. I told her it didn't matter—she was already loved by the moon. I actually don't know what that means exactly, but it sounded pretty good at the time.
I have always been a big fan of the moon. I find comfort in each other's existence and am grateful for the beauty of the night sky. I think that the moon is a beautiful example of a planet that works together with other planets to create life. It doesn’t have any atmosphere, so it doesn’t have any weather like we do on Earth. But its gravitational pull is so strong that it can hold water on its surface.
Tumblr media
The moon’s gravity helps keep our oceans at a certain level and even keeps them from rising too high above sea level. The moon also has an extremely strong magnetic field that holds back solar winds from blowing away the water on its surface. These things all add up to make the moon an important part of our lives in ways that go beyond just looking at it through telescopes (though those are wonderful, too).
A full moon is the only thing that can indeed be relied on in the night sky. It’s what keeps us safe; it’s what guides us; and it’s what makes us feel at home. We have many things that help us feel safe: our family and friends, our jobs, and even our hobbies. But nothing compares to the comfort of being able to look up in the sky and see a bright orb shining down on us with its full luminescence. The moon is a constant presence in our lives, and when we look up at its face every night, we know that there will always be someone watching over us.

50. Approach Me
I've been thinking about this for a long time, but I always feel like it's just kind of an abstract concept. You know how sometimes when you're really excited about something, it feels like it'll happen someday? But then it keeps getting pushed back, and you have to keep reminding yourself that it will happen one day. So I'm writing because I feel like we need to get moving on this as soon as possible.
Tumblr media
I've been working on these ideas for years now, but nothing has happened until now, and now is the perfect time for us to take the next step. Please let me know how much interest there is from your side as well. I wish there was a big fan of my work and the way I approach writing. I think my tone is really unique and makes me feel like I'm in on some kind of secret. I know we are all busy, so if this blog doesn't go anywhere, that's totally fine. But I just had to reach out because I wanted to say that my writing style is somewhat amazing and something I would love to work with.
Tumblr media
I wish someone was happy to contact me. I wish someone had been following my work for some time now, and it's always great to see someone with such a unique approach to storytelling. I can't wait to hear more about how you've been doing what you do—writing—and if there's anything else you'd like to add. Best of luck—I hope we can work together again soon. I'm interested in working with you, and I'd love to work with you to make that happen. I wish I had a big fan of my work, and I think we'd be a great fit for each other's strengths.

49. Recognise Themselves in Me
There is a lot of talk about how women are treated differently in society. The problem is that, as a society, we don't really know what to do about it. We can all agree that it's wrong for women to be treated any differently from men when it comes to gender roles, but what do you do when you have a woman who is being treated differently?
Tumblr media
We all have different personalities and experiences, so we can't expect everyone to react in the same way when faced with an unfair situation. However, there are some generalizations that can be made based on personality types: Introverts will tend towards being withdrawn or quiet; extroverts will tend towards being more talkative; people who love socializing will prefer meeting new people over spending time alone; those who prefer solitude will not enjoy parties or large groups of people; those who dislike change will find themselves struggling with it.
I've always been a big fan of the moon. It's a symbol of change and growth, and I've felt like my life is always in flux—just like that moon. The moon is also a powerful force in our lives because it can help us see things clearly. The moon comes at night when we're sleeping, so it has this magical quality to it that makes it seem more magical than natural. Even though we know how it got to be the way it is, there's still something about its appearance that makes us feel connected to the universe when we look up at its reflection in the water or sky.
Tumblr media
Because of its connection with space, the moon seems like it has always been around—it seems to have always been there for us. But really, all this time, only about one-third of the Earth's surface was covered by water. The other two-thirds were covered by continents. And now those continents have all been worn away by plate tectonics, leaving behind just one-third of our planet's surface: land. The rest of our planet is still covered by oceans. So even though we can't see them anymore, they're still there—they're just not visible from above.
I am a person who is very passionate about a lot of different things. I like to explore, learn, and be around people who make me happy. I have a lot of interests in life that are not typical for someone my age. My favorite thing about myself is my passion for traveling. I have always wanted to see the world, but it wasn't until recently that I started doing things that made me happy—like going on adventures and learning new languages.
Tumblr media
Another thing I love about myself is my honesty. It's something that seems so simple when you think about it, but there are times when we all feel like we don't want to tell someone what they need to hear, so we'll try to sugarcoat it or ignore it altogether. But being honest with yourself is important because then you can move forward with your life instead of just pretending everything's fine even if it isn't.
The last thing I love about myself is that even though sometimes it feels hard or scary (like when you mess up), eventually things will get better and you'll see the light at the end of the tunnel. You are the moon, and I am the sky. We can bring light into the darkness of this world.

48. Someone Would See Me Waving
Someone would see me waving the moon. I'd be standing on a hill, pointing out the stars to them. I'd tell them how they were made and how they were orbiting around the sun. They could listen to me; I'd tell them how they were all one big world and how Earth was just one of many planets that we live on.
Tumblr media
I'd tell them about our solar system, how we're part of it, and how humans are just one species among a whole bunch of different species that live here on Earth. And then I'd tell them about our planet's history—how long ago dinosaurs lived here before us. And then I'd tell them about what happened with those dinosaurs—how they died out thousands of years ago thanks to humans who came along and killed off most of them by using fire so that only a few remained alive in order to preserve their natural resources for future generations.
The waves of the sea help me get back to myself. The sun, moon, and stars make me feel at home. I find solace in the tides, which keep me grounded and remind me that my body is not alone in this world. The moon is like that too. It reminds me that no matter what happens in my life, there's always more light than darkness. The moon makes me feel like there's a way out of any situation, even if it seems impossible at first glance.
Tumblr media
When I am in the ocean, I am able to feel the power of my own body. The ocean is so vast that it takes me a while to swim across it. There are many things that can happen while swimming in the ocean—I may be attacked by sharks, squid, or even jellyfish. But because I am so small and weak, there is nothing that can hurt me.
When I get back to land, everything looks different: the sky is blue instead of pink, the sand tastes salty instead of sweet, and people look taller than they actually are. However, when I go back into the ocean again, everything looks exactly like it did before, except that now I am stronger and faster than ever before. It feels amazing to be able to swim across such a large body of water without getting tired or scared because there are no sharks nearby.

47. I’m Right Here
I am a moon, and you can see me. I am a thing that lives among the stars, and you can feel my gravity pulling on you. You are not alone in your desire to ignore me; there are billions of people all over the world who want nothing more than to pretend that I don't exist at all, but they can't hide from me forever.
Tumblr media
I am here because, like you, I have feelings too—feelings that are often suppressed by the pressures of society or by the belief that it's better not to think about them at all. But now we have someone like you who wants to listen—to hear what's going on inside our heads—because we're tired of hiding from each other and from ourselves. We want to talk about how much we love our families and friends but also how much it hurts when people say ignorant things about us without even realizing it.
The moon is a beautiful and mysterious thing. I know that you think it's just a tiny circle in the sky, but it's so much more than that. It's a symbol of unity and connection, of hope and optimism. I'm right here behind your prejudices—I'm right here with you when you're feeling alone or afraid. There's no right or wrong about how we feel about ourselves or each other. We can't really control how we feel or what we think about others, but we can control how you react to those feelings. And if you keep finding yourself reacting negatively to people who are different from you, then maybe it's time for a change.
Tumblr media
You’re right. I am right here behind your prejudices. I’m not saying that you are wrong, because I can’t say that. It would be like saying that the moon is wrong for being a satellite, or that the sun is wrong for being a star, or that the earth is wrong for being round. If you think about it, we can’t really know what is true and what isn’t until we get rid of our biases and prejudices, so it’s only fair to hold them up to some kind of critical thinking.
We don’t want to lose any more of our loved ones to prejudices and biases—and it doesn’t have to be this way. When you look into your own life and come up with a list of things you think are true but aren’t. I'm right here and I'm not going anywhere. You can look at me, but you won't see me. You can talk to me, but you won't hear me. You can touch me, but you won't feel me. I'm right here, I'll be your favorite friend. I'm right here, I'll give you a hug. I'm right here behind your prejudices, and I want to show you how much they're hurting.

46. To Hold my Hand Up High and Shout
I was a bit of a weirdo. I liked to write poems about the moon, the sun, and the stars. I wrote them in my blogs as if they were meant for someone else to read. The only people who knew about my writing habits were my friends, who would occasionally read some of my work. In fact, some of them even encouraged me to publish some of it online.
Nowadays, though, I can't seem to stop writing poems about the moon. They come up all the time in conversation with friends—and sometimes without any provocation at all. It's like they've taken on a life of their own. I want to do this because I love the moon so much. You can see it at night, and it's beautiful. It makes me feel as though there is a light in the sky that I can look up at and see, even if it's not there anymore. I think that would be a great accomplishment for me because I've never done that before.
Tumblr media
Dear friend, I want to take your hand and make it the moon. It's a simple idea—just look at it: you are the moon, and I am the sun. We each have our own light that shines in different ways on others. But when we're together, we can create something even more beautiful than either of us could do alone: we can make the sky a shade of blue that hasn't been seen before.
I know I'm not the only one who feels this way. When you look up at the sky, it's not just empty space—it's an entire world waiting for us to discover it. And what better way to express yourself than by holding hands with someone special? Holding hands is like a bridge. It connects two people together, and it makes them feel like they're sharing something special together. It lets us feel like we're part of each other's lives, even if we're separated by miles or time zones. We can't touch each other physically, but our hearts are somehow connected—and that's enough to bring us closer together than ever before.
Tumblr media
Take my hand, and we'll make it. I'm not saying this just because it's a nice thing to say; I'm saying it because it's true. All you have to do is believe in yourself, and all the stars will align. You can't see them from here, but they're there—and they're waiting for us. I won't say a word to you—not a single word. But when you look at me, don't you see? that I'm not a stranger to you.
The moon is a bright light in our sky; we know that much. But what about the stars? Are they just lights on a distant night for us? Or are they actual people—like us—who just need a little help getting out there and shining their own light? It's true: if we can believe in ourselves, then anything is possible. So let's look around at these beautiful things around us and start believing that they're real—and that they might want to help us get where we belong.

45. To be the Person they could Look for
To be the person they can look for when they have problems, I will be a good listener. When I am listening, it is as if my ears are in the palm of their hand, and I am giving them complete attention so that they can tell me what's wrong and what they need from me. As a listener, I try to understand the other person's perspective.
It is possible to be the person you could look for because there are people who are different than you and still find love. Some people are born into loving families and have a great support system with their friends and family. While others have been raised in single-parent homes or have had troubled childhoods. These factors can affect who they become as adults, but they do not stop them from finding love.
Tumblr media
I have seen many couples who were complete opposites and had no idea how they would fit together. Still, they did because they found each other online or through friends and decided to meet each other in person. They ended up falling in love and getting married after three months together. The point is that people are more than just their circumstances; what we make of ourselves matters most in life.
The moon is a symbol of the night and a part of the night sky. The moon is also a symbol of brightness and hope. The moon is a symbol of illumination and hope. When we look up at the moon, we can see the light of life shining down on us from above. It gives us hope that there is still life after death and reminds us that there are still things worth fighting for, even after our lives are over.
Tumblr media
The moon has been symbolic of many things throughout history. Still, its most important role has always been as an indicator of the passage of time. When you look up at the moon, you can see that it moves across different sky parts daily. This means that one day will turn into two days, then three days, and so on, until one month becomes two months, then three months, and so on, until twelve months pass by in one year. This gives us an idea about how quickly time passes by once we realize how fast our bodies age when we're not looking up at the sky.
I want to be the person I could look for on the moon. The first time I saw this image, I was taken aback. It's so beautiful and so intriguing. It made me think of how we all have our own stories and that they are all equally important. We all have a special place in our hearts, and each has a unique way of expressing it. Every person's story is essential, and it deserves to be told. The world needs people like us who can see beauty in every moment of life, no matter what happens next.

44. I Decided
I don't know if you've ever thought about it, but we all have a moon. It's a part of us that doesn't change with time or circumstance. It is constant and unchanging, and it's always there for us. And then there are the stars. The stars in the sky are constantly changing, but they're also very far away from us. You can't just look up at them and see them like you can look at your own moon. They aren't as close as our own planet or even our own bodies. They're also not really there for us—they're dead and gone long ago. So which one is more important? Which one do we choose to focus on? To me, it's obvious: We have to pick ourselves. We have to ensure that we're taking care of ourselves in every way possible so that we can show up for others in the best way possible.
I decided I was going to choose myself. I decided after I woke up and saw a full moon in the sky. It was beautiful and so calming. No matter how hard things get, I know there will always be a full moon to look at and remind me that everything will be okay. So this past weekend, instead of getting lost in my head and worrying about all my problems or trying to find solutions. Instead of trying to fix myself, I would set the world around me by creating something new and wonderful.
Tumblr media
I've always thought that we should all choose ourselves. Not because it's better than selecting other people but because we are the only ones who truly know what makes us happy. And when you're happy, you can make everyone around you happy too. So I'm going to take charge of my life and make sure that I am surrounded by people who make me feel good about myself.
I don't think I am better than anyone else, but most people take themselves too seriously. They believe they have to be perfect and can't just enjoy themselves because it's "lame." But really, everyone is equally unique; we're all here for a reason, and we all have something to contribute. We're all here to learn from each other, making us a great community. We have our differences, but those differences make us stronger together. Everyone has something valuable to offer, no matter what you believe in, who you like, or what you do for work. That's why we're all here together: to learn and grow.

43. Aimlessly Wandering in Search of Others
I am just wandering aimlessly in search of others. I'm looking for something, but I don't know what it is. It's like when you're on a date with someone, and you're just looking around at everything as if you were trying to take in the sights and smells of a new city, but you don't really know where to go or what to do next. That's how I feel right now: I'm looking around myself and my surroundings but not seeing anything clearly. It just looks foreign to me; I can't wrap my head around it or find any meaning behind it.
I wander aimlessly through the universe, searching for others like myself. I have always wanted to meet people like me—people who are different from me and yet still understand me. But when I find them, it only makes my loneliness worse. It's not that I don't want to be loved or even understood; it's just that when someone does love me, it feels like such an intrusion into my own life. And when someone does understand me, it's just too much—it feels like they're inside of me instead of outside of me. The best thing that can happen is when two moons meet: we can share our similarities and learn from each other without giving up any part of ourselves.
Tumblr media
I've been thinking a lot lately about how I'm always wandering in search of others. I notice the moon with its glowing orb, and I wonder about the nature of this planet we live on. How did it come to be? What is its purpose? Why do we exist? I want to know more about these questions, but they are beyond me to answer. I can only imagine how much more there is out there that I have yet to discover.
I don't know why it is, but I just can't find the people who are really important to me. My friends are great, but they're not always there when I need them. My family's great, but they're so spread out across the country and the world that it's hard to get together with them often. And even when we are all together, we don't always have time for each other—because we have our own lives and stuff. Maybe that's why I'm always looking for other people—so I can have someone who will be there for me when I need them most.

42. Urge to Find Others who Felt the Way I did
I am a young person who has never felt comfortable with how my body looks or feels. I have always had the urge to find others who felt the same way, but only recently did I realize that there are other people like me. I have been looking for other people who might feel the same way about their bodies and how they change over time. I wanted to talk to them about the things we all experience, but finding people who understand you and want to discuss these things with you is challenging.
I was urged to find others who felt like I did about the moon. When I was just a little kid, I remember how much I loved looking up and seeing that giant, glowing orb in the sky. It was so pretty, and it lit up my whole room. In the middle of the night, when all was dark, the moon would be so bright that it would light up my window and shine through my curtains. It was such a calming thing to see every night when I went to sleep. The fact that something so beautiful could be so close made me feel safe and secure—even when things weren't going well at school or with friends or family members.
Tumblr media
I wondered if other people felt this way when I was younger. People who missed their homes by looking up at the moon every night or wished they could go back home after being away for too long because they missed their mom's cooking or dad's smile too much... I wish now that someone could have told me about them then. The only thing that helped me cope with that feeling of loneliness and isolation was my imagination. I would look up at the moon and feel like someone else was looking back at me with their own eyes. The idea that other people out there felt the same way as I kept me going through some of my most challenging times in high school and into college.
I have always felt like an outsider. I've never fit in, and I always felt like I was being judged for it. I've been feeling a lot of feelings lately. And it's time to talk about some of them so that I can find others who feel the same way. I'm feeling the desire to connect with others going through the same things I am to help each other through it. And I want to do this by sharing our stories and helping each other understand how we got here.

41. We don’t have the Time to Share Feelings
We don't have time to feel. We don't have the time to share feelings because it takes a lot of energy, which is needed to survive. We are always busy with our lives and don't want to waste our time on other people, which is why we don't have time to share feelings. We're busy people and don't have time to sit around and be sad about stuff. We don't have time for that. We're all so busy and want to be on time for work or school. We want to take advantage of our favorite TV shows and go out with friends. We have so many things to do in our lives and spend so much time doing them.
One way we can connect is through the internet, which means we have to wait hours for someone else to upload their video on YouTube or post an update on Facebook. If you want to talk about your day, you can't wait for someone else—you have to create it by writing or speaking your thoughts out loud. And then there are those special moments when you are alone: eating dinner together, watching a movie, sharing a drink with someone special. Those times are rarer than they used to be because everyone has gotten busy with their lives.
Tumblr media
We are so busy, so stretched thin, that we can't give our feelings a chance to breathe. We are always on the go, always rushing around like crazy people trying to get things done, and then we sit down at night and wonder why we felt like something was missing. Or maybe it's not missing—maybe there's just no time or space in our lives for feeling anything but stress and exhaustion. Perhaps we don't even realize when we're sad or happy. Maybe that's why we're not even aware of how much life is changing around us or how much our relationships are changing too.
For some people, this might be okay—they can compartmentalize their emotions, so they never have any trouble with them. But for those who struggle with depression or anxiety or other forms of mental illness, this is a recipe for disaster: our brains aren't built for multitasking like this. They need time alone with their thoughts to process everything around them and find solutions for whatever problems come up.

40. Exhausted from Living
What's the one thing you can't live without? Your phone. It's your lifeline, your connection to the world. But what happens when you're on the moon and don't have a phone? You get really, really excited about space, that's what. When you're on the moon, you know: there is no better place to be than in outer space. You can see the stars; they are so bright and clear. You could even try to take a selfie with them if you wanted (but seriously, don't).
When you're on the moon, it's hard not to feel like part of everything—like you're part of some larger interconnectedness that extends beyond our planet. We are all connected through the sun, after all… and the moon's orbit around Earth is reflected in its own orbit around Earth. I've been living on the moon for weeks now, and I just can't take it anymore. The air here is unbreathable, and the temperature is far too high to be comfortable. I'm getting sunburned everywhere. And if that weren't enough, there's no water here. I have no idea how long I can last before my body gives up on me.
Tumblr media
I wish I could return home to Earth—it'll be much better there than here. But until then, I have to stay here with my new friends (who are currently trying to kill me) and suffer through this awful existence. My friends are unhappy with how much time they spend with me. They're worried about how much time we'll spend together trying to escape our boring lives in these small towns. Nothing ever happens except that every day is exactly like yesterday's days.
I am an exhausted moon. I have been living the life of a moon since I was born. I have been working hard and trying to get ahead, but it needs to happen faster. I get up early every day, so my job can be done before everyone else gets out of bed. Then, after everyone else has left for work, I still have to stay at my desk until 6:00 AM. I can finally go home and take a break from the stress of my job for the whole night before returning to work again. I am so tired. I think I'm going to die. It has been a long, hard night. I'm going to go home and take a nap. I don't have enough energy to spend outside today.

39. Bad at being Honest about our Feelings
I have a lot of issues with being honest about my feelings. I'm not sure why, but I find it incredibly difficult to say what's on my mind without sounding confrontational or rude. I wonder if it's because I grew up in a home where honesty was not the rule or if this is just how I am. Still, there's no denying that it can be a real struggle to communicate when something is bothering me. It won't happen unless the other person is willing to listen and allow me to express myself—which is never easy.
Tumblr media
When someone asks me what they can do to make me feel better. All I can think about is how much more comfortable they'd be if they could talk openly with their friends and family members about how they're feeling. The truth is: there's no one-size-fits-all solution that works for everyone. But there are definitely some things that will help you get started: Give yourself permission to speak up when something makes you uncomfortable or uncomfortable in general.
It's not that I don't want to be honest—I do, but I never know how to express it. When I am honest, it comes out all wrong. And when I try to explain the problem, it sounds like I'm making excuses for myself. Part of it is always this pressure to be perfect and excellent: "Don't you want people to like you?" "You must have so much confidence" But if you don't feel confident, or if you just don't enjoy yourself all the time… what's the point? You can't expect other people to respect your feelings or listen to what they need from their friends or family if they don't even respect themselves.
Tumblr media
So instead, we end up hiding our feelings behind a smile, a joke, or an off-hand comment. We ensure everything looks alright on the outside, so no one will notice anything wrong inside. I tend to be more of an observer, and I'm not very good at telling people how I feel. Even when I do it, it feels wrong and awkward, so I only do it sometimes. This is because I was raised in a family where everything is always perfect. No one says anything damaging or hurtful, and everyone gets along perfectly. When you grow up that way, you don't learn to talk about what's happening inside you.
So here's the thing: I'm not the person who can tell you that someone hurt me without getting really worked up about it first. And if someone said something that hurt me, they didn't mean it by accident—intentionally and maliciously (which would make them mean-spirited). So even though they might have apologized for hurting me or taken responsibility for their actions afterward. They still deserve some form of punishment from me for harming me intentionally. That's just how life works sometimes.
Tumblr media
I am not a good person. I have been lying to my friends, family, and even myself for years. I tell people what they want to hear, but I don't mean it. When I say things like "I love you" or "I'm so great at this," I am lying. The worst part is that I don't know why I do it—there's no real reason behind it. It just comes out of me, and everyone believes me because they can't see anything behind my words.
It's like having a lousy moon: you know it's there, but you can't see it from where you are standing. But you are looking in the right direction. In that case, it is hanging over your head—just waiting for an opportunity to catch someone off guard with its bright light and make them feel guilty about their actions.

38. Contradictory Feelings Could and Did Coexist
It's a beautiful day outside. The sun is shining, and the sky is clear—but inside your head, everything feels wrong. You're sitting in your favorite chair, reading a book you love. You're surrounded by things that make you happy: your family, friends, and dog. But as you're reading, something in the back of your mind keeps nagging at you that this isn't right. It's like a tiny voice whispering in your ear: "This isn't real." But then another emotion comes along with that first feeling—a thought: "Maybe I'm just being silly." And then another review: "Maybe I'm having a dream." And then another thought: "Maybe I'm crazy." And then another thought: "Maybe everything is okay."
Tumblr media
Your mind starts spinning around like a top as it tries to reconcile these contradictory feelings. You start doubting everything around you—yourself included—and feel completely paralyzed by all the possibilities running through your head. Your body starts shaking from all the conflicting emotions taking over you and making it hard for you to think straight or even move. But then you catch a glimpse of something on the horizon that makes your heart sink: that thing that makes you feel like you'll never get there. It's the moon.
The moon is beautiful, but it's also contrary. It can make one feel optimistic, but it can also make one feel pessimistic and hopeless. People have always wondered if there was a way to reconcile this contradiction. Whether or not we could be happy while understanding that something as seemingly perfect as the moon might also be flawed. Our perception of it might need to be corrected.
Tumblr media
And then someone came along who said: Yes! Of course, there is a way to reconcile these seemingly contradictory feelings about the moon—it's just not with our eyes. It's with our hearts. There is a lot of talk about how the moon and the sun can conflict with one another. We indeed have a lot of feelings about this, but at the same time, we don't.
There are so many ways people can feel about things that they can't even agree on how to feel. One person might say they want to spend their whole life with someone, and another might say they don't want to spend their entire life with anyone. We don't know so much about our lives and the world around us, yet we still love each other and enjoy our lives together.
