I’ve never lost anyone so close to me before, and I don’t know how I will ever get over this loss. I know that I will. I know that I have to. I know that he wouldn’t want to see me so broken. Then again, I also thought I knew what pain felt like. My grandpa wasn’t just my grandpa. He was my second daddy, my friend, my protector. He was my Papa from the minute I was born, and I will always be thankful for my time with him. I was lucky. I was so lucky. Whereas some people see their grandparents on holidays and visits few and far between, I’ve always lived less than half an hour from mine.
I saw my grandpa at least once every other week. That’s eighteen, almost nineteen years of constant visits, constant love and attention. I was spoiled rotten and I was his princess and I just really hope he knew how much I loved him. I hope he knows.
Nothing is instant. Instant rice takes five minutes, instant pudding an hour. I doubt that an instant of blinding pain feels particularly instantaneous.

Today can’t be real. When I see a picture of him I just know he’s still around, but he’s not. He will be ashes, dust, and I will have to graduate from college and get married and have his grandbabies and he won’t be here. And he was supposed to be. He was barely in his sixties. This is not how May 24th, 2013 was planned. This is not real.
Not real.
Not real.
I want to be ripped in half because there’s too much inside of me. There’s too much. Too much.

Why aren’t more people freaking out about the new Venezuelan labor law?
You know, the one that gives housewives/full-time mothers a pension— wages for housework?
It’s ONLY A HUGE VICTORY FOR FEMINISM, SOCIALISM, AND WOMEN OF COLOR. Not a big deal or anything. Tumblr is mysteriously silent about this.

wouldn’t it be cool if jellyfish floated around in air instead of water but they didn’t sting you instead they gave you little kisses and rubbed your forehead with their tentacles

Fangirl Challenge: [1/10] Friendships » Brooke & Peyton
"A best friend.. okay, this one is so important. Choose wisely, okay? I got really lucky with mine. My best friend is funny, intelligent, creative, beautiful, and successful, and very kind. And she’s also.. impulsive, frustrating, um.. complicated, childish. But I would not have her any other way. And the best part about Brooke Davis is that she always puts friends first."
