Hey, just remember that you are here for a reason. It will get better but you gotta just push through the bad stuff. Someday you'll do something great.
much love- snowy<3

I love snow too! According to a website, I have a 99% chance of a snow day tomorrow!

I am considering running away and it's only partly idle speculation. Why is that you ask? It's because my life is pressing down on me and I need to get away.

Please don't Maggie! Believe me, it won't do anything. If anything, it'll make it worse. You're NOT worthless. Everybody is here for a reason. There is a plan for your life. There have been points I felt the same way. But that's when you've got to start thinking of ways that you that you are special. Despite what you may think, you are special, in many ways. You've just got to find them.
"Some
say fate is beyond our command, that destiny is not our own, but I know better. Our fate lives
within us. You only have to be brave enough to see it." ~ Merida, Brave
This statement is somewhat true, Maggie. Your life is what you want it to be. Don't let these feelings overule what YOU want to do or be. The world can't make you something you're not. You're not worthless, you're special. You're not without gifts, you're talented. It honestly takes a brave person to see those gifts. It's easy to say you're talentless or worthless, but it's takes a strong brave person to say, "You know, not matter what, I am special, and I can do this, this, or this, really well." And not even just physical things. It takes a strong person to look in the mirror and say, "I'm beautiful" and know what it really means, and believe it. That's what you've got to do, Maggie. We all think so. Why not you?

I realize that I'm not completely talentless, but I'm not good ENOUGH and that bothers me. I can't run away, because I can't get to the airport, because I can't drive.

Running away isn't going to help because then you're just going to have to take care of yourself without any support and that'll be even harder than your life right now. There's really no choice but to keep slogging along. Running away is not going to do you a bit of good because your old problems are still going to follow you and you'll have a whole host of new problems. Not to mention, if you end up back at your house, you'll be in an enormous amount of trouble.
I've been sick for the last couple of days and right now I have a monstrous headache that leaves me unable to do anything but lie on the couch, make weird whimpering noises, and watch large amounts of Naruto episodes. That's the problem with life. You can't skip past the bad parts but you just have to go through them and grit your teeth and wait until it's a little bit better or a lot worse. I don't really have any advice for you, honestly. But distractions are nice. Naruto can be surprisingly addicting. It's more fun to yell at idiotic characters for being idiots while having a miserable life than just having a miserable life and not having anyone to yell at it.
Darn it, I took a painkiller and it only made things worse! Well, it did say IB on the bottle. IB is notorious for making heads hurt.
The tough times in life make people stronger, and there's light at the end of the tunnel!

That's actually very sound logic. I should have realized that earlier.
I'm very sorry you're sick. I can't watch Naruto because I don't have Netflix and my parents won't let me have electronics and so...yeah. The IB program does make my head hurt sometimes. So many essays. Ugh.

Maggie, you are not worthless. Everyone has a huge worth in the world. Especially you.
(November 25, 2013 - 9:18 pm)
:O
DON'T FEEL LIKE THAT OR I WILL BE FORCED TO GIVE YOU A CUTE PINK FUZZY BUNNY THAT MAKES EVERYONE FEEL BETTER.
(I think you get the message.)
(November 26, 2013 - 2:22 pm)
Me too. I feel like my life is nothing but for the various idle distractions (reading) and activities.
I love you, Maggie. Love the universe. Be joyful and loving.
Instead of sitting around feeling sorry for yourself, MAKE yourself worth it.

I have a migraine right now. I don't usually get migraines but when I do they're awful. No one believes I have a migraine except my dad. My nine year old brother actually thinks I fake migraines, because my sister gets migraines and gets attention for it. Basically my sister has a monopoly on all illnesses, mental and physical. My grandparents (my dad's parents, who I don't like) are pissed off at me because I yelled at Jack for banging on the window. And my cousins are coming over in a few hours. One of them is my age and the other is five, I think. Yippee, I'm going to have to deal with a five year old, a nine year old, and an immature twelve year old while I have a MIGRAINE! That was sarcasm, if you couldn't tell. Anyway, how is everyone? I hope you are enjoying Thanksgiving.

You say you never feel good enough... how much stuff are you doing? Do you feel like you have a lot on your plate? Quitting something may help.

I don't have that many extracurriculars/clubs, only Battle of the Books, C&S Club, honors orchestra (which hasn't even really started yet). Also school orchestra and private cello lessons. And I'm good at orchestra. I'm just not good at anything useful.
Spammy says home. No Spammy, I'm not at home. I'm in Greensboro.
Oh Maggie, orchestra is useful! Music adds so much to the world, to special occasions and everyday events, to people's lives. It can express things that can't be said with words, and you can enjoy it your whole life! And cello is beautiful!

I've wanted to run away before, but I never really did because I could tell that I wouldn't make it very far. And I'm sure you're useful and talented, you're such a amazing writer!

I hate migraines! I get them a lot, but really my sister gets all the attention because she was born first and therefore got a migraine before me and now no one believes that they are as bad as I say they are. I feel for you! Just stay strong and keep going.
