- labyrinth -
the defiance of an age
no more than words on a page
remember those days you whispered
the phrase, “you spend your whole life stuck
in the labyrinth, thinking about how
you'll escape it” and, well,
the present?
nevermind i forget the times
i see myself in forlorn places
(and) empty spaces
i'm lost in the labyrinth of my mind
you can’t help but escape it
i’m losing myself again
don’t let me
lose myself
again
lost in the labyrinth
of time...
don’t
lie

Looking for alaska will forever be one of the greatest piece of YA literature that john green has bestowed uopn this world amd i will defend it till the day that i die When he wrote " I was gawky and she was gorgeous and i was hopellesly boring and she was endlessly fascinating so i walked back to my room and collapsed on my bottom bunk, thinking that if people were rain, i was drizzle and she was hurricane." And when he wrote " Y'all smoke to enjoy it. I smoke to die." And when he wrote " I know so many last words, but i'll never know hers." The way my outlook on life completely changed when i read this i loved every aecond of it. Alaska's death will always remind me how grief and guilt play such a pivitol role in people's life and how life without meaning, without an identity of self is not really a life.

Throwin’ poison seeds into the wind Make the poison tree to grow in me begin Let your branches fork my veins Let your honey tide in me Blood lovin’, poison whisperin’
Oh, beautiful poison tree Let your power grow in me Let your sorrow flow in me Take away my blood and bones Make your flowers deep inside of me
Least I’ll still have company My inside, tiny poison tree I’ll seal my love in me Tiny beautiful poison tree
Oh, beautiful poison tree Let your power grow in me Let your sorrows sow in me Turn me into a poison tree
Turn me into a poison tree Make my shadow go away Make my branches strong and hard Make my leaves flower and spread Make me feel like something powerful is growing deep inside of me Turn me into a poison tree

“Shhhh,” she said. “I’m sleeping.”
Just like that. From a hundred miles an hour to asleep in a nanosecond. I wanted so badly to lie down next to her on the couch, to wrap my arms around her and sleep. Not fuck, like in those movies. Not even have sex. Just sleep together, in the most innocent sense of the phrase. But I lacked the courage and she had a boyfriend and I was gawky and she was gorgeous and I was hopelessly boring and she was endlessly fascinating. So I walked back to my room and collapsed on the bottom bunk, thinking that if people were rain, I was drizzle and she was a hurricane.
Looking For Alaska, John Green

"How will I ever get out of this labyrinth of suffering?"
“The only way out of the labyrinth of suffering is to forgive.”
The book's level of pain and rawness is out of this world. John Green's book, Looking for Alaska has stayed with me ever since I read it. It's unforgettable.

“You spend your whole life stuck in the labyrinth,
thinking about you ll escape one day, and how awesome it will be,
and imagining that future keeps you going, but you never do it.
You just use the future to escape present.”

I hate seeing these fucking videos of people who voted for Donald Trump regretting voting for him. If they had just done more research and didn't vote for him just because then the can "afford gas and groceries" they would've learned that if you are the average American your taxes will be higher and you will have larger bills. Donald Trump's tax plan does include a few cuts for the middle class but 83% of tax cuts that are included in Donald Trumps tax plan go to the people that are making over half a million dollars a year. Kamala Harris's tax plan would've been better because 100% of the tax cuts in her plan would go to members of the middle and low class.
Donald Trump has also reported "not being associated with project 2025" and "having nothing to do with project 2025" which is obviously false seeing that many people who are involved in project 2025 have served Donald Trump in one way or another. For example; Paul Dans, who is a former chief of staff at the U.S. Office of Personal Management under Trump is leading the project. In addition, Trumps campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt has appeared in Project 2025 promotion videos.
Here are ways project 2025 could affect you and your personal life. Project 2025 would stop people from earning overtime pay. He wants to undo recent policy that made over 4 million people newly eligible for overtime. Project 2025 also wants to weaken child labor protections. In quote "The young people should be able to work inherently dangerous jobs" and work in rolls that are not allowed thanks to protections from the department of labor.
Project 2025 also says that they will quote "Secure the border, finish building the wall, and deport illegal aliens" Donald Trump is planing on doing mass deportations. He declared that once he takes office that he will use military to do mass deportations of undocumented immigrants.
They want to make it harder for women to get abortions by removing it from laws and taking away approval for abortion pills. They want to stop some services that give out birth control and instead suggest less reliable methods. That might take away funding from clinics that provide abortions which could also affect other services those clinics offer. They want to promote traditional roles for men and women. They will take away protections and programs that help gay people, thus making it harder for them to be treated fairly and get the support they need. They might cut back on programs that help poor people get healthcare and other support meaning it could be harder for poor families to get the help they need.
These are some of the ways project 2025 will affect the climate. Project 2025 would rewrite the most legal tool we have for protecting wildlife in ways that would harm imperilled species. For example, it specifically calls for removing protections from gray wolves and Yellowstone grizzlies. They also propose to repeal the Antiquities Act, which would strip the president of the ability to protect the public land and waters of national monuments. Project 2025 would have agencies that manage the federal lands and waters to maximise corporate oil and gas extraction. Speaking of oil, the agenda directly aims to expand the Willow Project which the largest proposed oil and gas undertaking on the U.S. public land. This also calls for drilling into Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge and mining into Minnesota’s Boundary Waters wilderness.
If you go to a public school congratulations. You are now required to take the military entrance exam. Page 134/ 135, "Improve military recruiters’ access to secondary schools and require completion of the Armed Services Vocational Aptitude Battery—the military entrance examination—by all students in schools that receive federal funding." "Increase the number of Junior ROTC programs in secondary schools"
If you voted for Trump I promise you will regret it in the next 4 years.
