"I dont need Obama, I dont need Clinton, I will free Egypt with my mom and dad" - Young Child at Tahrir Square.



It took 18 days of protest to remove a president of 31 years
Congratualtions Egypt, today you made history and proved that revolution can still happen. Here's hoping for a free, diverse, and prosperous Egypt.

Truth is... I cut.
Truth is.... I scream.
Truth is.... I cry until I lose consciousness.
Truth is .... you don't want to hear this.
Truth is.....you act oblvious to my tears
Truth is.......you go quiet and akward every time I need you
Truth is....... its going to be ok. I'm going to stop cutting, the wounds will heal. There will be scars.
Truth is....I'm lying when I say I need you. I don't
I need myself. I need my family. I need God.
This whole time I thought He wasn't there
Angry with the turn of events.
Futily trying to every path to find peace.
He exists.
In every smile, in every breath, in every act of kindness.
I'm going to get help.
I'm afraid one day your going to need it too.
Good-bye my love. It's time to grow up.

I Miss You

I miss your smile and your laugh. The way you yelled at me, the way you encouraged me. I miss your presence. I miss you. I miss the way you stood tall. I miss the way you made everyone laugh. I miss being able to look at you and know everything is going to be ok. I can't believe you left. It's hitting home now, and I'm not ready to accept it.
How could you have left me?
All alone.
I miss the way you called me nicknames. I miss the way you sang sukoo sukoo.
I miss your love, your anger, your guidance.
How am I supposed to deal with this?

Dreams



These three months have been the longest of my life. I desperatly want to leave the city. Take me back to the mountains, please. I caught my annual cold today its gross. I wanted so bad to go out to Banff, but it looks like I won't be able to go until the weather gets better. Or even to that place in my long forgotten dreams... Venice. The piture of the water is Maligne Canyon an amazing hike, and of course there's Venice. Bloody Gorgeous.
