Where do I begin?

On a skype chat, we discovered that someone posted a picture of the notzi sign from WWII. This disturbed many people. Two of my bests friends and Jewish and both believe very strongly in their religion. One of them was trying to hold in tears. One was turning so red and so angry. I hate to see them this way. They are amazing people. Smart, kind, considerate, funny. That's when I find out who posted this image. A black girl. (I know that sounds racist but bear with me.) she obviously didn't know what it meant. She found the picture on the internet and asked someone who was fully aware of what it was what it was. They responded with, "A cool ninja star." I don't know who this someone is but I'm planning to find out.

see, though visual representation of the butterfly may help you to not harm yourself, i hope what i'm about to tell you now will help even more. you don't need the butterflies, lena. you are the butterfly. you're beautiful and still growing and learning and changing and evolving like every other creature on this earth, and it's going to hurt. but you need to let yourself feel. you need to let the emotion flood your brain until you feel ready to explode. because if you don't feel, you become void of emotion, and that leads to cutting more easily than anything else. you're the butterfly. you may want to harm yourself but you shouldn't, okay? you're important and you're lovely inside and out. i hope you're doing better today. you deserve it, as all butterflies do *hugs tightly*

you're not.
i'm here.
you have friends.
online and otherwise. it doesn't matter.
you are not alone. *hugs*

I moved away, but I still cannot forget the look of disgust my old best friend gave me, and she was emailing me like crazy and stuff.
Forget about the bad things. Do more happy stuff in your life.
Draw more butterflies if you want.
Draw and color things on paper.
I'll always be on your side.
*Huggles*

you don't know that they're /all/ going to leave you. and how do you know you won't keep in touch with them or have any close friends post college? you'll still have a life. my parents don't have very many friends, and even less close ones, and their besties live way far away from them. but they still fly out and see each other once and awhile, and have long talks via phone, and hey: communication gets faster and faster every day. even if your friends are far away you can still text/email/message/skype/whatever them often enough. and you will have friends, close or far. distance doesn't matter physically. emotionally--well, you already have a bunch of close friends, and if the weak get weeded out along the way, then it just strengthens your bonds with the others. maybe you can't always talk to them about what's going on, but that's okay. you're a good person, isaac, and people should recognize and love that about you. you won't ever be alone. trust me.

Yeah, it seems to me that adults have lots of "really good friends" even though they almost never see each other. Maybe it's just because they all understand what it's like to have a busy schedule, but even some good friends that live right next to you will only see you 2 times a week. So if you feel like you're growing distant from everyone, maybe you're not. I think when you're young, your friends need to be RIGHT THERE WITH YOU ALL THE TIME OR IT DOESN'T MATTER but when you get older, you grow closer to them mentally and farther apart physically. If that makes sense. ^_^' So, I think you will be okay as far as friendships go and it's okay to be lonely, but you're never really alone. (Especially if you think about micro-organisms. They're probably everywhere. *shudders* Don't listen to me; I'm just rambling on about science now.)
