Trapped

Have you ever felt trapped? Have you ever felt like no matter how hard you work to make people proud and happy you just seem to always do something wrong. It almost feels like you are a butterfly trapped in a jar and you just can't seem to get out. You do everything you are told but you still disappoint. Sometimes you just want to run as fast as you can and as far as you can. What do you do when you feel trapped? You continue to try and get out and hope that one day you will be free. And that one day you will do something right.

A Friend

First off I just want to start by saying hello and I hope that you all enjoyed your Thanksgiving. I am sorry that I haven't written in a while. I also want to say thank you to those of you who are listening. I hope that you are learning somethings from me. I try to write when I discover a new lesson or learned something new and it so happens that this week I learned many new things.  This world can be cruel and you have to fight to survive in it. Usually you have people in your life that are there with you to help you stand up after you have fallen. Well at least in my case, I have my family who is always there as support watching me play the game of life. They sit in the side lines cheering me on letting me know that everything is alright. But you always need someone else. Someone your age going through the same process that you are. You need a friend that you can trust. A friend that will be there with you even when it gets hard. You need someone who will listen to you and be there to hug you when you feel like giving up. Sometimes you just need a person who will come in the middle of the night with Oreo cookies to watch a movie with you just because.  Sometimes you just need a friend. You don't ask that friend for anything other than he/she give you a little bit of love and trust. All you ask is for that friend to listen to your cry of help. You don't know what a person is feeling unless you talk to them and ask them. So don't assume you know what troubles others are going through. Don't go around doing dysfunctional rescuing. I'm  going to end this piece by saying that if you do have a best friend whom you trust with all your heart cherish them because they are really hard to find.
