A Heart Has Feelings Too, Alexis Doberstein [best non fiction books of all time TXT] 📗

world to me.
And has helped me through everything.
I don't know what I'd do without them.
I always have asked myself
"What did I do to deserve a friend like that person??"
And I thank god everyday, because that person puts
up with me. Flaws and all included.
I may be a strong person, but if there's anyone who's strong.
It's that person. No doubt in my mind at all.
They are wise, and they speak the truth.
And the truth that they speak comes from their heart.
And from that person's heart they give strength and faith
I lost my strength and my faith, and that person
helped me get it back when I needed it the most.
And for that I am truly grateful, and always will be.

That person knows who they are. And that person is truly a blessing to this world.
Because with out that person I don't even know if the world would be the same without them.

The Soul of Friendship

Friends can be hard to find, but once you do, you will never forget them. They become a part of your life. And when that happens it's like your souls become one. You both live off one soul. So when one is hurting the other can feel it to. But it's up to them if they want to do something about it. But the both of you will know how you both are feeling. Even if it's the smallest thing that frustrates you or makes you sad, you both will have to work it out. You both will have to come to and agreement. Because a friendship is not worth ending over something small and maybe even pointless. Friendships are the best thing in the world to have. There are some people out there who have no friends or don't even know the meaning of the word friend. So I don't know about you, but I consider myself lucky to have such great friends like I do. And my friends after a while become like family to me. Like brother and sisters to me. And yeah we may have our ups and downs. But I know that I would be willing to work them out. And I'm sure my friends would be willing to. I don't believe in giving up on friendships. And I never will. That's just who I am. Especially if you've been friends with them for a really long time. Then you definitely might want to think about your decision carefully. But no matter how mad or sad you may be. Don't listen to your head or other people. Listen to your heart. Your heart will know the true answer. So just look within yourself and you will find your answer sooner or later. Your heart will always lead you in the right direction.
Who Am I? Really?

I wish there was another time. I wish there was another place. Where I can just go alone to get away from all this pain. I’ve carried this pain for years and years. And it just refuses to disappear. People think that I’m fine when I’m not. All they insist on seeing is a bright, happy, cheerful, intelligent girl. They may see me on the outside like that. But they will never understand the inside. For almost 17 years it’s been nothing but a constant war inside me. Between who I am and who I want to be. People think that I’m understanding and too nice. But the thing is, is that people don’t know who I really am. I don’t even know who I really am. And it’s frustrating. The only thing that I know is that I’m a girl who’s been hurt, torn and scarred. I’ve lived half my life not knowing who I am. And it’s been hard. Yeah I may have great friends. The best ones that I could ever ask for. But they don’t even know the whole story. And if I told them some of the stuff that happened. They wouldn’t believe me. They would have to be there in that moment in time to actually see it with their own eyes to believe it. In my life I have experienced death, and loss, and pain. In this world I have never felt any weaker, but also I’ve never felt stronger. Because I know that some how, some way this world has made room for me. And now it’s my turn to find out just what that is. To find who I really am. . The real me. And I won’t stop until I do find her. I’ve been searching to hard and to long to give up now. I will find her. I will find who I really am inside. I will find myself once again. And this time I will not lose her.

Half Alive

I've learned how to live half alive for many different reasons. Half my heart is missing because each break up or each person that I'm close to, they leave me. I'm not a whole person. Half of where my heart should be there is nothing but emptiness, darkness. Because the person that you loved the most took you for everything you got. I'm not human and I'm not a monster. I'm simply someone of the past who is half alive. The only way I survive is by support. I get support by other people. If it wasn't for those people I would not be here right now. All those people fill the other half of my heart to make it a whole. But they only do it for a little while, and then the emptiness and the darkness consumes me. I'm only half alive but I'm still standing. And I'm going to live half alive for a long time.


People around the World

This is for people around the world. Each person is that person for a reason. So don't hate. It's like don't judge a book by its cover. My advice. Just be yourself and no one else. Then they will truly love you for who you are. Not someone you wish you could be.
