Why is it called Piggie-back riding? I'm not a piggie!

Some days, it seems to me like the purpose of life is to convert energy into beauty.

It seems no matter what I read I think 'this is not Harry Potter.'

Read books. Care about things. Get excited. Try not to be too down on youself. Enjoy the ever present game of knowing.

I need Harry Potter like a grindylow needs water.

We often just accept the things that we like, and complain a lot about the things that we don't like. But if we could, like, intensely dwell on the really great things in life the way we intensely dwell on the negative things in life; I think that would be fantastic.

But when you are being physically and psychologically tortured, it is difficult to remove yourself from the pressingness of the moment at hand. Here's how I dealt with bullying: I cried, I hated myself, I hated my life. I didn't deal with it, I survived it, but I never dealt with it. So here are two tips from someone with lots of experience. 1: It's not about you, it has nothing to do with you, it's about the assholes doing it to you. 2: Your job is not to deal with it, your job is to survive it, which you CAN do because it WILL end. And then yes, it will get better.
