It Will Always Be Special, Pendleton Ward. Here’s To 2 More Years Of New Finn & Jake… And The Adventure

Maybe we don’t heal by convincing ourselves that someday, the pain will fade; that we’ll return to our former selves and reclaim the life we used to have. Maybe we heal when we accept that it’s okay to never go back; when we stop trying to use the broken pieces to rebuild the old picture, and instead, create a new one. Maybe we heal by affirming that even with this pain, we can craft a life that gives us meaning; that even when there are storms that flood our hearts, we can learn how to swim; that when night falls, we can learn how to create our own light. Maybe, it means trusting that no matter how many times we have to recreate ourselves and redirect our path, we will end up where we’re meant to be.

Taraji P.Henson gave a heartwarming speech  after SAG Award win. She used this moment to appreciate three women, who changed the history and sent men into space, who didn’t complain about oppression they’ve experienced and thought about solutions. She called for unity , bacause that is what this film stands for. This film is about miracles that happen when we unite.

Why aren’t there coming of age stories for people in their twenties? Why aren’t there stories about young women like me who are chasing their dreams and romance isn’t involved? Where are my stories about young men trying to figure out who they are? 

Why aren’t there stories about people in their twenties who question their gender and their sexuality too? 

Why aren’t there stories about sad and lonely truth about going to university and grad school? Hell, where are my stories about transfer students that are 25 but they’re surround by 18 year olds in class?

Where are my stories where people freak out about their elementary classmates having children already because hey–they still live with mom and dad and getting a job in this economy sucks? Like who takes care of their child? Are they already successful enough to take care of a baby without the help from mom and dad? 

What do I have to do to get a character that’s not sixteen, but somehow through a random occurance, they have to save the world. They’re still innocent enough to have hope, but jaded enough to know that it can go away.

Why are all stories either about teenagers or people with families or trying to start families and all that jazz?

Just…where are there stories about me right now? 24 and trying to the best that I can.

I could really use stories like that. 

This broke my heart and made me cry 💔

Chronic illness, chronic pain, and mental illnesses can create a sense of low energy in those who suffer from them.

The spoon theory is a way to discuss the use of energy in tasks as a kind of currency. People who do not have energy draining conditions have, in theory, infinite spoons to expend on whatever they please. People who have chronic conditions may awake with 10, 5, or 2 spoons on any given day.

“so you usually stay at home because of your mental illness?”

yeah.. but don’t think it’s boring…i have several intense mood swings in an afternoon and sometimes i dissociate for hours

When my mental illness interrupts life.

When you’re happy without a care in the world and then life interrupts your happiness
