Cute MySpace LayoutsI may have lost my brother, my sister, my parent, my child, my spouse, my friend, but I am a survivor of the long dark night of unspeakable loss, the unbearable pain, of my own darkness... and I am alive.I am unwilling to stand idly by and allow shame to defeat love, or silence to defeat action. I stand for the enlightenment of a society that would hide from suicide, that would avoid, that would pretend... and I am alive.I am unwilling for my perseverance to be in vain, unwilling for the passing of my loved one to be in shame. I loved them more than I loved myself and their life will have meaning in my action. I am resolved... and I am alive.In a world blinded by the pursuit of pleasure, I am here to say that people are in pain. In a world rushing to get ahead, I am here to say that people are being left behind. In a world obsessed with the value of the market, I am here to speak for the value of life... and I am alive.This will be no quiet fight, for I am the voice of audacity in the face of apathy. I am the spirit of bravery in a world of action. I am a commitment to action in the face of neutrality.I am out of the darkness; I am into the light. And I am alive. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Uhhh...I am a total science geek! I graduated in May 2008 from Hawaii Pacific University with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Marine Biology and have many plans for the future. For now, I am just working at the Bucks earning some money and keeping myself busy, doing some volunteering and interning. Then its hopefully on to North Carolina and grad school in July 2010 and saving the polar bears! I love the outdoors and seeing all that nature has to offer. I was made for sunshine and warm weather and I can't wait to find my way back to the rock some day...my heart will always belong there. And while I have my academics planned out, the rest of my life is an open road. Who knows where I will end up, but hopefully it will be someplace brilliant. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ "Bottom line is: even if you see 'em coming, you're not ready for the big moments. No one asks for their life to change, not really. But it does. So what are we, helpless? Puppets? No. The big moments are gonna come; you can't help that. It's what you do afterwards that counts. That's when you find out who you are. You'll see what I mean." ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~ "We are all a little weird and life's a little weird, and when we find someone whose weirdness is compatible with ours, we join up with them and fall in mutual weirdness and call it love."

beautiful poem

I do not love you as if you were salt-rose, or topaz,or the arrow of carnations the fire shoots off.I love you as certain dark things are to be loved,in secret, between the shadow and the soul.I love ...

when one part of your life starts going okay...

...the rest falls spectacularly to pieces. Why is that? I mean, not that any one part of my life is actually going that great right now. I pretty much suck at school and life in general, I appare...

Have you ever felt like you suddenly weren't as important as you once were? Like you once belonged or held a certain status and then all of a sudden, as quickly as a shooting star appears and then dis...
