"To This Day" - Amazing Video, had to share.

[Toxic Tessa]

((Haven't posted much in months due to no internet, hope it's alright to post this!))

I came across this video about 20 minutes ago and had to share. I felt like it was a crime not to. This is the first video I have come across in my life that has had the power to move me and strike “that chord” in me due to the 100% accuracy of the words. I am by no means an overly emotional person, but it had the power to bring up things that I had buried deep inside and brought tears to my eyes. I think that in ways, all of us can relate to this video and it is worth a watch.



I seriously need to put this on my phone so I can watch it when ever I have a rough day.

Yup. I blame it on the fact that I am getting older.

I'm not sure you can blame that on you getting older...

Shhhhh. I can try. <3

Realistically speaking I really don't think it's bc you're old. I just think its because you haven't seen that video of kate upton dougie'ing...

That was beautiful. Thanks Tessa.

I know all too well of those feelings.

The names didnt hurt as much as the rocks, the foot balls, the fists and kicks.

But look at me now.

Look at what I have become. I am in control of my life. I own two successful businesses, I own my own vehicle out right, I have friends and family who love and adore me, people who look up to me and seek my knowledge and wisdom. Yes I am still overweight but that doesnt change nothing because I took the first step in changing myself to become healthy. I am happy. For the first time ever. I am happy.

But I go on facebook and search the names of those people who bullied me.

What do I see? Drug addicts, young parents struggling to keep their children, highschool drop outs, sad people.

If only these people took time to care for them selves instead of taking the time to ruin someone else day maybe they would be happy to.

But I every night I think to my self,

If we didnt have challenges in life there wouldnt be a great reward when we get over those challenges.

Yet the people who have life easy there is no reward.

Its the challenges in life that make us who we are.

Reminds me of 'Wings' by Macklemore. Listen to it


Also... I heard this only for the first time a couple months ago and it hit me. If you haven't heard this before, you might enjoy it, and consider it my response to the plights in your video:
