Most people on this earth are completely naive, and everyone should pick up litter they see on the ground. I would rather see chipped, wild coloured nailpolish on a girl than perfectly lacquered fingernails. I appreciate the thought of homemade gifts rather than store bought ones. Everyone is a hypocrite in their own way. If there is a God, it does not have control over each individual, it only oversees our planet and provides something for the masses to believe in so we don't all go crazy. And even then, some of us go crazy. Psych wards are highly overrated and half the people in them are brilliant, and the practice of Psychology is in reality a joke, because I think there is no way we can map the human mind - not in a million years. I think the grass is never greener on the other side no matter how hard you try to make it greener. I think reading good books will raise your IQ significantly. If God made all creatures, why doesn't the Bible ever mention dinosaurs? Surely the presence of 20-foot-tall lizards would be of some significance to the human race.
Making your bed in the morning makes a room look at least 50% cleaner than it actually is. If you kill a big spider at night, you're probably killing the daddy spider who is out prowling for food while his love is at home with the unhatched babies, waiting patiently for him to return, but he never does. If you hang a dreamcatcher from your ceiling you will be convinced at least for a week that it "really works" because you haven't had any nightmares.
A real journal always feels better than an online one. Anti-depressants can be psychologically addictive. It is debatable whether you are still screwed up if you still run scissor blades over your arm as if you're going to cut, but you never do. If you want to die by overdose, you won't succeed if you swallow pill after pill after pill - you have to take one, wait a minute or more, then the next, wait, etc., and fill in the gaps with a shot or two of whiskey, or sherry for the more faint-hearted.
"Mary collects all the sleeping pills and asprins she can find, and takes them and a half bottle of sherry. You can see what kind of woman she is by the fact that it's not even whiskey." (Happy Endings by Margaret Atwood)
