Me: this sucks, i hate life.
People in real life: you okay?
People on tumblr: wow, sounds like you're going through a rough time, i'm here if you need to talk, anytime!
Me: ya, i'm fine.
People in real life: okay! good! what's up?
People on tumblr: i totally understand, if you don't want to talk about it, that's fine, but we all love you and you have 10000 reasons to be here

So overwhelmed
So much stress
Most of it is not school related and unfortunately inevitable
So overwhelmed.
I forgot to tell you
I’m addicted to everything you are

Maybe their hearts were in the right place. Maybe not. Either way, these are solid contenders for the title of “worst attempts at helping others since colonialism.”

There’s a problem with this society if my AP Calc teacher makes people feel so guilty for missing school that I’m actually going to that class tomorrow half an hour before my grandfather’s funeral. I have to leave straight from that class.

I’m sitting here and I don’t want to talk to anyone because I don’t like just hearing people say “I’m sorry for your loss” repeatedly. Even if they are truly sorry, I never know what to say back, so this is easier. I’m sitting here and all I can do is listen to slow ruach songs on youtube. It’s good because it’s Hebrew, so I don’t have to...

I don't believe in walls.
I don’t care that people don’t always have the best intentions. Call me naive, call me foolish, call me whatever the hell you want, but I think if you have love for someone, no matter what kind of love it is, whether it’s friendship, family, sibling, or relationship love, you should express it. Everyone wants to be loved. So what? You chose the wrong person one time, or seven....

I think music is transformative.
I think music is transformative. I think it can change the world. I think there is nothing more powerful than a group of people singing together. The language does not matter, and it does not matter if only three quarters or half or even only one person understands what they are singing, because there is something glorious about singing in tune with a group of other people, feeling their bodies...

Pencils of Promise: The Perfect Nonprofit?
http://www.pencilsofpromise.org//
PoP has 7 schools completed, 8 ongoing, and 2 upcoming, all solely in Guatemala. In total, it has 45 completed schools, 20 ongoing, and 10 upcoming between Guatemala, Nicaragua, and Laos.
I never know how to explain PoP fully and accurately. In my eyes, it is the perfect nonprofit organization. It builds schools in third world countries, but the workers and...
