About this user
Hi!
My name is Astrid. I'm 12 years old, like to walk in the rain, the smell of pine, MEANINGFUL songs, glitter, paperback books that make me laugh and painting my toe nails 10 different colors.
Someone once told me i smile too much and talk too fast, Someone else told me i dont smile enough and talk too slow, and another person said im fine just the way i am, so i believed the last person.
I am a believer
I believe in myself.
I am a champion.
I believe in everyone else,
but i mostly believe in believing.

"Sorrry it's just....theres no hope left in me. I can't believe anymore."
"That's not true. You seem to have a strong belief that nothing will work."

Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow.
I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripened grain.
I am the gentle autumn rain.
When you wake in the morning hush,
I am the swift, uplifting rush
Of quiet birds in circling flight.
I am the soft starlight at night.
Do not stand at my grave and weep.
I am not there, I do not sleep.
Do not stand at my grave and cry.
I am not there, I did not die!

Those who hurt others, hurt only themselves. Those who love others, are able to love themselves. Compassion is something the world will not survive without.

I love to ice skate. but i can't say its my life. There is more to life :) However, i do love it with a passion.

Angels aren't beings with wings and white halos, they are not found i heaven or your imagination. They are snow, they are light- they are the people who tomorrow will make you smile.

If you got it, you got it.
If you don't got it....
you STILL got it.

You can't tell me who to be
you are not me
Who made you king of anything?
Who cares, if you disagree?
You are not me!
Who died...and made you kind of anything?

"SOrry. This is your fate. You are going to die from anorexia. Come, be with me. There is no more future for you."
I took the see-glass and looked through it. I saw a million futures- not all glamorous, but all could be mine.
"You lie! That's not true! I don
t have to die! There is more to life!"
"What?"
"There is more to life than being thin. Or perfect."

I breathe slowly. Eating is hard. I exhale, take a big bite. Food is life....and that's the problem. When you are alive, people can hurt you. It's easier to crawl into a bone cage or a snowdrift of confusion. It's easier to lock everybody out, to die....
But it's a LIE.

The walls go up
they take me away
they steal my soul....
they make me feel dead.
There is a human being walking around
who looks like me,
but is not me.
I am gone.
And it is my fault, for i put the walls there
by not eating.
By keeping secrets.

Hate, is better than not caring. Love, is better than not caring. But i'd rather you hate, than not care, about me- for at least then you must be feeling something.
***
Make me a rainbow, and shine it on my mother. She'll know i am safe with you as she stands under my colors.
***
Dancing bears, painted wings, things I almost remember. Things my heart, yearns to know, things hidden in my memory.

Just saying Good Job, to someone,
could save a life.
Be nice. :)
