Hi hummm_mabbe,

I have a great film for you!!!!

It's about child neglect and parents blaming their children. Its a comedy but it has some very underlying powerful themes. I cried my eyes out at the end (i won't tell you where in case you haven't seen it). It's filled with some beautifully funny, tearful and inspiring moments in it.

Anyone who wants to see a great film about a neglectful childhood should watch this film. It is my favourite.

Its called "Drop Dead Fred". I think it was made in 1991.

Enjoy. Let me know if you like it :)

What was the big blockbuster bout the boy who wanted to be a ballet dancer? He as pretty rejected and humiliated?? Also, one about teenage girl who gets pregnant in 50's Ireland was haunting. She gets sent away to place run by nuns. And The Delinquents with our Kylie!

Ok case in point

Here I am listening to "My Chemical Romance - Famous Last Words". Ive got tears coming to my eyes, and at the line "I am not afraid to keep on living, I am not afraid to walk this world alone" theres a tidal wave threatening to break through.

OK I just cried. A lot.

Its okay to cry...sometimes it does you good.Some lyrics/films do effect us cos we relate to them.Pretty woman makes me cry soooooooo much!!!

though oviously i don't relate to the prostitute bit!

Um s ok, its just things have really gone into a swirl lately, starting to get to the core of things, feelings I didnt know were there are coming out - but I know why I never felt them before, they hurt, a lot.

The last part of the song - "I am not afraid to keep on living, I am not afraid to walk this world alone (Or dead) " I couldnt stop thinking 'yes I am - very afraid'. Its kinna been building up for a few days, stuff about school, my family, my life now - the same theme. Show the world Im not afraid, so they dont know how much it hurts underneath. And the feeling that all there is, somehow, is death. Always been there somehow.

There isn't only death tho sometimes it feels like there is.Its hard to hide your hurt from people ....when you feel like your dying inside.Theres always ways to get through and theres nothing to say that you will walk this world alone.You never know what the future holds.

Im sorry you feel shit today,really am.Hope writing is helping

Its weird - its like I want to cry, like somehow ive always needed to, its like years of it coming out all at once, all the images from the past all swirling around. Its painful, but it feels like something that needs to be done, I dont know - like part of me coming back to life.

Hard to describe without sounding cheesy ....

If you feel this needs to happen for you to come to terms with certain things then thats a good thing.Just make sure you have support while you are facing the past

And then once the music stops, the shutters come back up, like it never happened.

But I know it did, so I cant lie and say its not there anymore. Its like a part of me that wants to keep 'me' sealed away, and crying momentarily lets me see him. Its not fake, Im not making it up, Im not making a fuss, attention seeking - Ive felt it, I know its real.

you know yourself.

Sometimes it takes something for us to finally open up,whether it be a music,film,a thought ect.Its good that you've allowed yourself to feel
