10 things i learned during my senior year of high school.

1. i could write a beautiful love story and convince every single reader that i know what i'm talking about. but the truth is when it comes to love, no one knows what they're talking about.
2. telling someone with depression to just "get over it" is like telling someone with a broken leg to run to the hospital. telling someone with an eating disorder to "just eat" is like telling someone with claustrophobia to get in a small cupboard and lock the door. telling someone who self-harms to "just stop doing it" is like telling a drug addict to sit in a room full of drugs and not touch anything. how can you judge what you don't understand?
3. it's not about who hurt you and brought you down. it's about who was there to lift you up again, and make you smile.
4. there truely is a fine line between love and hate, simply because, in order to hate, one must truely love.
5. you did a terrible thing. doesn't mean you're a terrible person.
6. missing someone gets easier each day, because even though it's farther from when you last saw them, it's closer to when you will see them again.
7. sometimes, two people fall apart so they can realize how much they need to fall back together.
8. but also, sometimes, you need to just realize that he doesn't care. and that you need to move on an realize there is someone out there who does.
9. you can't judge those who mock you. today, they are just weak. today, they can't handle the truth. you can't judge them because they're weak. and powerless.
10. if you love someone, remember that. even on bad days.
