And It Did
What if I don't want to be "the love of your life"? ????
What if that seems way too big for where I am in my life right now?
What if it scares me away
What if I hurt you
What if I'm too sad to concentrate on my homework at all
What if I've screwed everything up too far
What if I never know how to get out and we just keep going until we break.
What if what if what if it already happened and it did
What if that seems way too big for where I am in my life right now?

Concepts
My therapist brought this to my attention this week when I vented about a certain stress I put upon myself that I'm not good enough for a certain label there is upon a certain relationship. She used the concept of a chair. Here, I am focusing primarily on the concept of a "game".
The idea of a "game" is a concept. Like a chair or a bed or a computer, or a stuffed animal. Look at one of those things... if you think "chair", "bed", "computer", "stuffed animal", many images may come into your mind, but they are all part of the same concept. If none of these items are around you, find one that is. Maybe you're wearing it. Maybe it's a part of your body. Ponder the different images or ideas you think of when imagining the concept of whatever item you have chosen.
A concept is just something our past and present society (including our own experiences and thought processes and how the two relate) has used to define things, label things, and create normality for and communication on what the things in our world are. [I mentioned our "past society" because they have as much of an influence on our concepts of today as our "present society" does. I mean, we're all kind of the same people.]
Let me take another moment to call out society and label and maybe even normality.
I feel like recent events and calls of action to change the way people see the world has put a really negative connotation on society, label, and maybe even normality (although to a lesser degree for the latter).
Society's influence isn't necessarily bad. Labels aren't necessarily bad. It's when we let them oppress us and our humanity towards each other that they could be considered bad. But even then, the concept of society and the concept of a label may not be what should be considered bad. Did the concept become bad? Did the concept perform the action of being bad? No, but the persons who used the concept made mistakes that were then called "bad" using other person's concept of "labels" and then the concept of "society" was changed for some persons. Maybe it was even changed for enough such persons that, in general, they forgot the good concept of "society" and the influences society can have on us as humanity.
Concepts and Labels:
Concept (noun)- 1. a general notion or idea; conception || 2. an idea of something formed by mentally combining all its characteristics or particulars; a construct || 3. a directly conceived or intuited object of thought
Label (noun)- 1. a slip of paper, cloth, or other material, marked or inscribed, for attachment to something to indicate its manufacturer, nature, ownership, destination, etc. || 2. a short word or phrase descriptive of a person, group, intellectual movement, etc. || 3. a word or phrase indicating that what follows belongs in a particular category or classification.
I want to focus on the second definition for "concept" and the second, third, and last word of the first definition for "label".
According to dictionary.reference.com, a "concept" is just an "idea". Wouldn't that suggest that it can be changed? Recently, I read something somewhere that exposed me to a new metaphor (or idea?) for an actual idea (on some tumblr or causal internet interface probably..so don't think I've been taking time to read philosophical books or books of any the un-school-related kind, even though that would make me really cool [<< aHA! Another concept!]). I don't remember exactly what it was, but from what I can remember, it explained an idea as a seed that latches into your brain and once it's there, you never remove it. This could have been somebody's chapel talk, for all the good my memory is providing me with is insufficient because, frankly, it's not there. Of course, the point is not where I got it...
Point is, an idea, once planted in a person's mind, sprouts whether the person notices it, wants it to, or none of the above. Maybe it can be squashed to the point of near nonexistence (something I'd like to think of as forgetting), but once you get it in you, it's never gone (even if you do think you have forgotten it). Think of it as an STD. (I don't know much about STDs so this might be a bad example.) Once it's in you, it's not going away. It's going to grow and develop, and depending on who you are and how you think, it may develop differently than in another person. You may just leave it be or you may change it. You may hate it with all the passion you have, or you may accept it, even be content with it, and maybe be able to use your passion to water other actions or ideas. Even when you're "squashing" or "suppressing" an idea, you're still thinking about it, and therefore still watering and nurturing it.
Then there's the dreaded LABELS LABELS LABELS LABEL. When I first typed "label", I actually cringed a little. I thought, "Oh, gosh. People aren't going to respond well to that." I feared that if I simply used the word "LABEL", persons reading this wouldn't be able to see past the ideas that have sprouted, re-imagining and sometimes over-developing its simple definition. Here, we see that the utmost definition of "label" even surpasses the words that appear on the page. How? The abbreviation "etc." stands for "Et cetera", which implies that there is more. In fact, it implies that there is so much more that it would take too long to mention them all or else a lot of information would be left out or forgotten that doesn't pertain to the core values or meaning behind the definition. If there is that much more, isn't it possible that the "more" is composed of things you, I, and others have never considered in addition to the ones we have and have used?
"'Society' today puts 'labels' on things, people, ideas, and beliefs and this is bad." This is the opinion I see shaping itself up in the midst of the youth I am a part of and am surrounded by. Of course, it's not just the youth saying this, but my exposure to it started due to those of youth in my community. I feel like there's more to a label than that.
Let's say there's a machine in a meat-packing factory that detects which kinds of meat are which by a colored label, or maybe there are persons sorting out the meat. And say it's their first day on the job. Yes, the machine is new. Yes, the person employee is new. If one meat has the wrong label on it, then the machine or person might put that meat with the wrong kind of meat (unless they really know their meat), and that could cause problems. If you have a bunch of fabric to use in order to make a bunch of sheep stuffed animals and then a bunch of other fabric to use in order to make a bunch of armadillo stuffed animals and you switch the labels, you might have a problem. Obviously, you'll need to use your imagination for my examples, but I think you can do that. :)
In a more logical example (for you logic babes out there), when a child is growing up, the persons around him or her tend to tell the child what actions are good and what actions are bad when he or she performs them. Although the words "good" and "bad" may not always be used, this is necessary in order to teach the next generations how to make decisions by themselves to the best of their abilities.
A concept or a label is partially defined by "et cetera". There is always more although that "more" has no influence on the core definition of the words "concept" and "label" themselves.
Therefore, this is why I believe a "game" has more than one definition. It can be casual, simple, used only for play, not taken seriously, meaningful, important, a mixture of any of the previous choices, or all of the above, etc. That is why I believe in forwarding the "preteen chain email"-esque messages that can be found on the internet, such as:
"YOU'RE IT! Rules are: copy this message to 10 other beautiful people/blogs who you think deserve this message! Keep the game going and make everyone feel beautiful ❤"
or
"Just a note to say how beautiful you are, and to wish you a wonderful day! Once you have received this, anonymously pass it along to at least five other people, and know that you have made their day a little brighter. Nothing bad will happen if you don't, but who would ever want to break the happiness chain?"
or
"I want you to know that you are amazing and you're my friend until my death. If I don't get this back, I understand. But I have a game for you, once you read this letter, you must send it to 15 people, including the person who sent it to you."
That last one is an excerpt from one of those chain emails like the ones my friends and I sent on email and texting in middle school and goes on to explore the realm of "if you don't do this there will be consequences". Personally, I find those to be absurd. When editing this post, I also removed this sentence: "If you receive at least 3 back, you are loved" because saying something like that can be really damaging to a person's self esteem. What if I don't get three back? This email is telling me that no one loves me and the fact that I got it from someone or am sending it on to others suggests that other people agree with that statement or that I have to agree to that statement. I don't think these email chain messages with their superstitions and judgements should be circulating. Just because I learned quickly that just because I don't get "at least 3 back", it doesn't mean no one loves me, doesn't mean everyone else in the world will realize that before it really leaves a scarring effect on their self esteem and personal worth.
I think the ones I find on tumblr (like the one that partially inspired this post) are okay and positive and spread good vibes. No one should force anyone to share these. The second excerpt asks, "Who would ever want to break the happiness chain?" and maybe somebody does. Maybe somebody doesn't feel like taking the time to send it on. Maybe somebody doesn't even have anyone they feel like they can send it to. To fulfill a purpose to not "break the happiness chain" is never why I send those out and I don't think that's why any of my friends online or offline ever sent these things around. I sent them because it was another way to show my affection. Like saying "I love you" frequently, it seems to be frowned upon by many for its lack of importance and meaning, but for me it's always important and meaningful. If I sent a friend twenty of these in one day, personally, it would only positively build upon the great meaningfulness of any expression of my affection towards him or her.
To complete my escapade to where I was going with my first point, there is one more important idea I wish to plant in your soil. Look at whatever item you chose at the beginning of this dive into my sea of thoughts. If it is no longer there, find something else. Maybe its the air. Look at it. I'm looking at a shoe. It's a typical tan Ugg boot, to be exact. Its major concept is "shoe". Think about what the major concept of your item or thing is. Air. Foot. Chair. Stuffed Animal. Boyfriend. Soulmate. Bed. Computer. Now, if you can, try to take away that concept. Now, your previously "concepted" item is just something that is there. It is. All it is is there. It could be many things and it could be one thing, but it still is. I feel like this is a way to grasp the tip of the great ice berg on why there can be so many points of views on everything that surrounds us and is within us. I have another boot next to my Ugg. It's a black combat boot with a pink flower pattern on it. At the same time, it is still a boot. It is still a shoe. It is still there. It being a "shoe", "boot", or "combat boot" is a concept. It's an okay concept. I mean, I'm cool with that concept. I don't care if "grunge" or "dirty" or "undesirable" or "sexy" is associated with the concept of "combat boot". I don't care if "unfashionable" is associated with the idea of "Ugg boot". I like them for what their support holds up for me, personally, which could probably be labeled as my "concept" for them. But, in the end, as I take the boots off, as you put the stuffed animal down, as you turn off the computer, as you close your eyes, they are still there and now they are existing without your looking upon them with whatever judgement your ideas have developed into. We could make art with these things. If I made a sculpture out of boots, most persons would still call them "shoes", but they wouldn't be in use for that concept, now, would they?

More Me Thoughts...
I have my moments. The good and the bad.
I can be brave, but I can also get really really scared and consumed by the fear.
So when I'm talking to some people about insecurity and I seem totally sane but also seem like I don't necessarily think I am, they tell me because they've never seen me having a panic attack.
Some people would just walk away if they saw me having a panic attack, so it's probably good that they haven't.
But every thought and feeling of downness and negativity is completely avoidable, or so I believe with all of and every crevice of my heart.
Does that mean I'm going to always avoid negative thoughts?
No.
But why not?
Because there's something strangely satisfying and comforting in being completely in touch and completely aware of every feeling and thought and everything in your mind.
As long as you don't stay there too long, it's okay.
If you do stay there too long, however, you will easily become stuck
and being stuck SUCKS.
It sucks a whole heck of a lot to tell you the truth.

Whyyyy Hellowww Yellowww
The best thing I could have had at 15 was for my house to less big. (but still the same house) That way, I wouldn't get up in my room and not want to walk all the way downstairs to get something to eat at any given moment oh shoot I forgot to take my steroids and antibiotic okay bye <3 I love you :D
IMMA THINK
I think that when I get older and out on my own... at first..
I'm either going to be really fat or really skinny
because
I'm either going to not eat or eat everything in sight.
..
...yeah... okay.
And neither would happen because I don't like my weight or I think I'm too fat or too skinny because I think I'm just right... I just think this would/could happen.

Magpie #121
Magpie #121
The letters and the faces,
they line up among the places
where I placed them on my brown desk many moons ago
Now there lies but on face
and scattered letters calling in chase
for him to come back home
And the bill of rights
and the bill of times
the bill of electricity lays too
And I would say I don't know what to do
here without you
But I do, in fact, know what to do
I just don't know what I
want to do
about you.
Should I send the letter that lays in the open?
The one that lays, stark and naked, straight forward as hell and blunt?
Should I sent the letter that resides completely next to it?
The one that rests, casually but firmly, with belief that we can work this out?
Should I sent the letter that accuses and points the fingers of blame?
The one that could definitely be supported without a doubt, but that I might feel bad about or unreasonably harsh for sending?
Should I send the letter that begs for him to return?
The one that weeps and cries for his return and ultimately fears that he never will and will inexplicably, and unknown to me, throw away?
Or should I send the letter of each other letter, mentioned and not?
The one buried beneath all else: containing my feelings, my thoughts, my aches and pains, my hopes and desires, and all else?
I sit and wonder and others around me question my wondering.
They question why I wonder
instead of going straight on and forward, as they say, and getting rid of the problem
they question my reasons for sticking to him and not trying to find someone else,
maybe someone better,
because maybe I wouldn't have to look that far or hard,
and maybe I know that.
...
This letter, all-knowing of everything I know to be true in my head and omniscient of all that lies in my heart, would be the perfect letter in the perfect setting
if only I could find it, in all its perfectness, underneath this pile-up of absolutely everything in my head.
since you been gone.
And then, the face stays--
just forehead and eyes and upper nose or nostrils
maybe
but, nevertheless, directly half-and-half of my viewpoint.
I see it
but not the whole thing
as in, not the whole picture
I simply, inexplicably cannot see, nor imagine, the whole picture although I'm pretty sure I know what it looks
at least kind of
like
like you
being gone
and all
and fallen off the face of the earth... except not really...
I just don't know.
And I can't decide or determine whether the face watches with solemn passivity
or looks on as I make a decision
or counts the seconds until I come to the final conclusion
or sees my brain turn and wind up
or senses my heart back down and step up, steadily or not so much, like the constant rolls of thunder or waves in the sea
or reminisces about its own memories, other, more interesting things it has witnessed and completely ignores me
or counsels my spirit with that knowing look
or blankly stares for it so happens to be inanimate
Does being inanimate mean anything to a mask?
If not, why does it matter?
And if not, what could "being inanimate" keep the mask from doing?
Why is it even a mask now?
It's just a face
And it watches carefully, or not.
And it watches unknowingly, or the opposite.
And it watches as I make my decision
and reach for a letter
buried beneath.

You don’t drown if you fall into deep water. You drown if you just lay there.
