We Are Us

We are believers. We are those who still have faith. We are those who see the silver lining behind every massive destruction. We are the ones who believe in magic. In love. In the kindness of the world. In whatever good there is still left. We are fighters. The ones with unicorns and centaurs and fairies on our side. We are the ones who haven't given up yet. We are the ones who still hope.
We are those who fly with their wings. We are those who still face the flaming dragons. Those who endure the poison of the witch.

But we,too, are afraid. Sometimes we feel like we're losing ourselves. Sometimes we doubt it all. Sometimes we are on the verge of giving up. Long gone into the cruelty of the world. If we give up too, the world will be lost forever. Innocence will seize to exist. Magic will be forsaken.

But then, we remember. We remember why we fight for it all in the first place. We remember why when everyone else has given up, when the world has become so rotten, we still hold our grounds. Few of us left, but with hearts as wide as Wonderland and Neverland and every other land combined all together.

We are the ones who find beauty in the little things. We are the ones seeing magic around the corner. We are the ones who still fight the war even after a lost battle. We are those who believe in a power higher than ourselves. We are those who believe in a potion greater than any unbreakable curse: a True Love's kiss.

We are You.

Times like these..

"..but know that the world is full of beauty you don't even know of or never think about. No need to stay down. Stay open. To everything. Και σε απογοητεύσεις. It's surprising how you think you know everything αν δε φάεις τα μούτρα σου. Sometimes τζαι μετά που τα τρώεις! Anyway, "I've always depended on the kindness of strangers" ". 10/4/12

Confusion

The worst feeling of all: when you don't know what you want. You wake up one day and you want one thing, then the next day you want the opposite. And that's awful not just for you, but for everyone around you. What if there are two choices in life and you don't want either one of them? In fact, you want what you don't have each time. Where do you hide then? When none of the choices completes you, what do you choose?

But what if what you actually want is..both?

Illusions

And the whole world goes in circles. As always. Faith in humanity? Level zero. "The world is rotting". Indeed it is. Including me. Including every single one of us.
There is always that little silver lining of hope. Nope. Not anymore. Because we can't see, if we don't want to. "I see but I don't see". We create those little illusions in our minds, those illusions which give us a hint of hope, which helps us through a little light on what's happening around us. Then again, they are illusions.
The world sucks. Everyone sucks. I suck.
Realizations. That the world is not the way it should be. The world has become a place for sinners. Innocence is gone forevermore. It waves goodbye little by little. With every new realization, I feel a piece of it going away. Like a part of me is missing. And it feels wrong. And excruciating. It feels like my soul is ripped in pieces that disappear into the wild. And I can't get them back. Not now. Not ever.
I thought people could be different. People could be good. But NO. They are just selfish creature looking for pleasure. Trust in the world? Beyond saving.
