You got some issues Man I think you need some counseling to help your ass from bouncing off the walls when you get down some.

“Some of us have to grow up sometimes, and so, if I have to I’m gonna leave you behind”…

But…

“If there’s a future, we want it”…

Yeah…

“It’s just a spark, but it’s enough to keep me going”…

Because…

“I’m still into you.”

I Am Not A Camel But I Do Have Epilepsy

Mon, 11 Feb 2013 23:20:18 -0500

I Am Not A Camel But I Do Have Epilepsy:

For a long time, I didn’t want to tell anyone in my professional world about this unique feature of my brain. On the topics-that-are-fun-to-disclose-in-the-workplace-o-meter, epilepsy ranks somewhere between “I’ve been embezzling candy from the vending machine for the past 15 years” and “I am actually a camel.” I was worried about being viewed as an invalid, a workplace hazard, a weirdo. But above all, I was afraid that people would see me as stupid.

…. Although nowadays, fewer folks view seizures as possession by the devil or evil spirits (as many, many cultures have throughout history), the palpable discomfort around the topic of epilepsy is pervasive - and it has tangible effects. Until the 1970s, it was legal in the US to deny people with epilepsy access to theaters and restaurants, and in China and India, epilepsy’s still an accepted reason to annul a marriage. Workplace discrimination is prevalent, and people who have epilepsy tend to earn less money than those who don’t. Consequently, there’s a clear incentive to avoid telling anyone you’ve got epilepsy, if you can get away with it.

“There is an ongoing, significant embarrassment level about it,” the director of NYU’s Epilepsy Center told The New York Times, stating that “the feeling, for a lot of people, is that it does carry a lot worse stigma than a cancer.” It follows that most people with epilepsy don’t like to talk about their condition publicly, and that, in turn, perpetuates the stigma … which makes it a whole lot more difficult to raise money for research and lobby for equal rights.

So, now I am telling all of you I have epilepsy. (I have epilepsy!) If the director of an independent, progressive news organization in which everyone works from home can’t say it, then how the hell can we expect anyone else to?

in this broken beautiful mess i've made ♥: the last goodbye:

fiveminuteforever:

i’m constantly waiting
for an explanation;
an answer, a reason,
simple justification.

there’s something more
than the things i know:
a secret kept,
a story left untold.

but if there isn’t
and this is just your way,
listen to me closely
when i say:

this is the last goodbye
i’m…

charophyte:

“All the love’s still there, I just don’t know what to do with it now. You know, I still can’t believe we both did some things I don’t even wanna think about. Just say you love me and I’ll say I’m sorry. I don’t want anybody else to feel this way.”

Regret comes in all shapes and sizes. Some are small like when we do a bad thing for a good reason. Some are bigger like when you let down a friend. Some of us escape the pain of regret by making the right choice. Some of us have little time for regret because we’re looking forward to the…

“I should let you go,” he said. “I should put a stop to this … to us. Because until things change, everyone will be against us. And yet…” His head dipped down ever so slightly and his lips met hers.
He pulled back and ran his thumb over her lips. “And yet, how can I let you go when you’re the thing that keeps me going? When the main part of the reason I want change is you?”
His finger swept over her chin, a sweet touch that nearly brought tears to her eyes. “I’m begging you. Please be patient with me. Trust me when I say that you have a place here.” He took her hand and rested it on his chest. “I have to behave a certain way or it will get back to my father and the Council, but it’s not how I feel.” He paused a moment. “Please don’t give up on me, Kylie Galen.”

richiemp:

I get chills up my spine as if my core is cold
It’s from a great love lost, or so I’ve been told
It’s a matter of life and death, and I’m
Fighting to stay warm
Icicles on my breath, as my Heart weathers the storm

“Oh, did you want me to change? Well I’d change for good And I want you to know that you’ll always get your way And I wanted to say Don’t you shiver Don’t you shiver I’ll sing it loud and clear And I’ll always be waiting for you So you know how much I need you But you never even see me do you? And is this my final chance of getting you?”
