i have been listening to a fair bit of Regina spektor lately.

and to be brutally honest with you, her music makes you question and wonder whether or not the substance of your being is substantiated by your actions. you try and try to please and work around peoples problems and opinions. You believe yourself to be the guilty party, and probably for the most part, you are. But as i see it, our world isn't measured by rights and wrongs or by the fabric of our lives. rather its measured by one factor. one colour.

Blue.

Blue lips, blue veins.

blue, the colour of our planet from far, far away.



we are human, and the hardest lesson Ive had to learn is that being human is natural and perfection and balance are unnatural, they never work nor do they exist. I take everything that Ive seen so far in this short life of mine not at face value. Rather i try to see past the exterior, its hard.

its hard to see the positive in a shit situation, but as humans, our greatest strength is our faith in each other. don't forget one another.

once the ones you love are gone, there are no more conversations, no arguments, no words, no laughter. there's no warm, no cold, no struggle and no great story of overcoming great adversity. just the stranger at the bus stop who says hello and smiles.



be human, stay human.
