So, this morning, I spent about half an hour trying to pinpoint the happiest moment in my life. It wasn't a good idea. But it was revealing and inspiring.
Hey guys!
If there was a book. Like, an actual, bound book, written by me. Would you purchase it? For probably 10 dollars? Please?
It's going to be a poetry book, with a theme. One poem for everyone I know. So, you'll really be paying to read about yourself. |

Hey!
I think I found what was missing.
And I plan on celebrating, for a long, long time. |

Throwing up blood is not fun. Nor is not being able to breath for a few seconds after every time I cough. Or getting really dizzy and falling down when I get out of bed.
However! Staying home sick on a day that the entirety of Arrested Development is on tv is rather fortunate. |

Hi.
I'm Daniel.
I live an okay life. I have plenty of friends, but I'm always looking for more. I recently came to terms with the only person I've ever seriously hated. I'm in love with a great girl. I'm writing, again. And it's good. I'm writing, and I'm submitting it to various magazines and publications. I'm excited about my future, and at the same time terrified of it. I want to go to Guyana again. I'd like to help those people at least once more, if I can.
I constantly feel guilty. I'll never be completely okay with the person I am. I have a never-ending strive for change and evolution. When I get depressed, I have a tendency to draw into myself, occasionally for months at a time. But I'm getting better.
Here's to life. |

Lol, Dr. Congressman Ron Paul the racist is now on CNN.com. It looks his supporters are still trying to use the "Paul didn't write it nonsense". Yup, racism, homophobia, and all types of crazy was published under Paul's name for a couple decades, but he bares no responsibility. I know his supporters border on the delusional but come on. One newsletter, sure, but dozens. Either he wrote them and is now lying, or he didn't but approved of them being published. At best he took no action to stop this crap from being published under his name.
Supporting Paul at this point is supporting a guy who is most likely a liar, pander, racist, and a moron. |

"I thought about all of the things that everyone ever says to each other, and how everyone is going to die, whether it's in a millisecond, or days, or months, or 76.5 years, if you were just born. Everything that's born has to die, which means our lives are like skyscrapers. The smoke rises at different speeds, but they're all on fire, and we're all trapped." |

I've never liked New Years or new years. Or resolutions. So I don't make them.
But I also take no joy in watching everyone around me set themselves up for disappointment, either.
Why does a date on a calendar dictate the changes in your life? Why don't you?

I don't understand how I can feel like giving up so much when I'm not trying. |

I don't know if this was the right decision.
I don't know what this will lead to.
I don't know what I'm trying to find, but I need to find it soon, so things will be good again.
I know that my christmas tree will stay lit for a very long time.
And I know what forever looks like. |

"Once the realization is accepted that even between the closest human beings infinite distances continue, a wonderful living side by side can grow, if they succeed in loving the distance between them which makes it possible for each to see the other whole against the sky."
"Love consists in this, that two solitudes protect and touch and greet each other." |

Hooray frustrating dreams and gods of metal.
Would anyone like to eat ice cream cones under a large tree with me.
(and maybe wear something white.) |

I've never been so drug free.
I've never been so in love.
I've never been so happy.
Today, I'm cleaning out my room. I'm washing all my clothes and giving most of them away. I'm throwing out or selling everything I don't need. I can't wait for school to start. Once it does, and a routine is set, I'm going to get a job. I'll have a license and hopefully a car in October.
I've got a new goal. I will get something published before I'm out of high school.
Guess what. Daniel Pinney is even thinking about college.
Thank you for inspiring me to live. |

Going to the woods of Mississippi for a week. And while that's not the ideal place I'd like to be, I think a week away will do me some serious good. Because I've been going crazy.
I'm excited, nervous. All my opinions change constantly, my desires fluctuate, and the smallest things bring the biggest reactions from me. I'm not comfortable in the same environments I used to flee to to feel safe. I'm not at home around others, but I'm definitely not good alone.
And I don't know how any of that makes me feel.
For awhile, I've only been sure of one thing. And most of you already know what that is.
When I come back next week, I want to hang out with everyone. I need more socialization. I need to see people I never get to hang out with anymore.
blahhhhblahblablahh
p.s.
my birthday is tomorrow. |

I think you guys should know something. If you know more about me from reading this journal than from spending time with me, you don't really know me. I only get the urge to write things online when I'm sad or angry.
So just keep in mind that every time you log on and there's nothing new from me, I am happy. Most of the time, this is the case, and has been for months.
I am moving, I am happy, I am alive. |

I make myself miserable sometimes.
What's up with acting unnatural and telling stories about things I don't want to remember just because it's my turn to make everyone laugh?
And pretending to make friends with people I have no interest in and strengthening relationships I thought were at a pretty comfortable place.
ahhhhhhhhhh, it was all so awkward.
Best part of last night = getting checked in the face and seeing the blood go all over the concrete.
I kind of want to sit in the living room of a small house and sing Moldy Peaches and Mountain Goats and Field Mice. |

I don't know where this hopelessness came from, but I don't like it.
And I really don't like the way it's making me think.
Jesus Christ.
I was finally content.
You just had to push. |
