katie[g*money]holla wrote i think about my scoliosis. which is a generic disease ive had for the past 6 years. i wore a brace to try and correct it. it seriously killlleeddd my confidence and all that jazz. and last week i went to the doctor, expecting it to be my last visit since im done growing and everything, and it turns out that the curve prgressed a little bit which isnt great, and he was like "you have to come  back once more so we can check" and i was super bummer because i thought it was done. and so on the way home i had little bit longer on repeat hahaa waiting on a cure, but none of them are sure a little bit longer, and i'll be fine. even though i'll never bee " fine" but it does help. =]

I have scoliosis too. And its really hard to have to listen to people say all the time, "My back hurts!"

And I think, well.......mine hurts all the time, almost.

i think about alot of things, it doesnt have to be connected to health, it actaully helped me through things like studying for the biggest test of my life, getting over a death, it can help you out because it lets you know if you keep going you will make it through

mollylovesjonasforever wrote I think of life in of itself. I think of the fact that when I hear something, when I see something, when I taste something, when I hold something, it never really means anything to me. I take so much for granted that could easily just be swept away from me. I think of the fact that what I hold so far away from my heart and what I so frequently forget to thank God for is what so many others wish they could experience. I think of the fact that when I pass someone on the street, in the hallway at school, even at the mall, that person could just as easily not be here tomorrow. I ask myself why am I so blessed, and yet why do I forget it so many times? I think of how I pity myself so much for the silliest things at times, and I think of how life is a winding and twirling wave - you hear so much around you, the seagulls, the yelling of people, the crash of the water, and yet all you can concentrate on is the wave, is staying afloat, when we should be observing the sights that may not be around tomorrow, that may not always be there, a gentle humming that soothes us but we never thank God for letting us hear. The song is so deep for me, I cry just about every time I hear it. It makes me feel more humble, and makes me realize how quickly everything can change. But then at the end, it makes me remember how great God is, and how he has blessed us with people like Nick who stay optimistic even in the face of great despair. In his own words, "So I wait 'till kingdom come, All the highs and lows are gone, A little bit longer, And I'll be fine. I'll be, Fine."

Dude, I just realized how deep that was.

Wow. I'm usually not that deep. Its weird to look back on that and think, "Did I really write that?"

I Think Of People I Am Really Close To, Like My Family And Friends.

I ThinkOf My Friends Because My Best Friend Called Mayer Died Last Week Because She Was In A Really Bad Car Accident And I Think Of My Family Because My Sister And Other People In My Family Have Died In The Past Soo I Think Of Them When I Hear The Song!  :(

When i hear the words "But you don't know what you've got 'till it's gone", i think about my great grandmother, who died when i was in 4th grade (about 3 to 4 years ago) because i feel like i never appreciated her when she was alive. i also feel that way about my grandfather, who died when i was 4. i feel like i never got close to him, though i was little at the time. i now wish i had been closer to both of them.
