I'm not here to hurt anyone or cause them more pain. I just need a place to release some of my own. I also have a craft blog.That ANYONE can check out if they would like to. =] <3

I’m not a Tumblr famous. I love it when a red number appears above my inbox icon. If someone followed me, I smile and it makes me happy. When I lose a follower, I ask myself why. When someone hates me, only few people comfort me. When I make a text post, I seldom have notes for it. Almost all of my posts are reblogged from other users. When I hold an honesty hour, you can count with your fingers the people who ask. But despite the fact that I have not much follower count, I am proud of my blog. Why? Because the person who is reading this right now chose to follow me. :) I love you followers.

7) try and better understand this “invisible illness”
8) volunteer at the arts center
9) get back down to 141 lbs (as rough as that will be)

The Loneliest Whale in the World.
In 2004, The New York Times wrote an article about the loneliest whale in the world. Scientists have been tracking her since 1992 and they discovered the problem: She isn’t like any other baleen whale. Unlike all other whales, she doesn’t have friends. She doesn’t have a family. She doesn’t belong to any tribe, pack or gang. She doesn’t have a lover. She never had one. Her songs come in groups of two to six calls, lasting for five to six seconds each. But her voice is unlike any other baleen whale. It is unique—while the rest of her kind communicate between 12 and 25hz, she sings at 52hz. You see, that’s precisely the problem. No other whales can hear her. Every one of her desperate calls to communicate remains unanswered. Each cry ignored. And, with every lonely song, she becomes sadder and more frustrated, her notes going deeper in despair as the years go by. Just imagine that massive mammal, floating alone and singing—too big to connect with any of the beings it passes, feeling paradoxically small in the vast stretches of empty, open ocean.

UPDATE: She tried to kill herself and is in the ER right now. I didn’t make the book before because I didn’t have enough replies (I only received one), but now, more than ever, she needs support.

This little one’s name is Karson. He’s six months old and was born with a heart defect. He’s already gone through open heart surgery, and will likely need more surgeries, procedures, and tests as he gets older.
To help with the medical bills, his grandma is making and selling homemade caramels. They’re not very pricey- six bucks for plain and seven bucks for pecan, sea salt, or cayenne, and you get a half pound of candy.
Get a bag, get some nummy candy, and help a sick little kid in the process.
(I don’t know these people personally- I just think it’s a nice way to do good for someone in need. And yes, I bought some myself- one bag of sea salt caramels are heading to my mouth house as we speak. :3 )

I’m reblogging this for all the people out there who I know love chocolate. If you’re going to try to buy some chocolate on the Internet anytime soon, I’d encourage you to try these. The reviews make them sound delicious. I plan to buy some myself in the next 1-2 weeks. :)
I can’t sleep yet again.
So in all my brilliance I am going to stay up and make bracelets all night.
