Wonder Day 6.24.15


No Hate. Don't push away! If someone asks you what's wrong, don't say nothing or it's fine. Tell them what really is wrong. Especially your family. They might show love in a different way and sometimes you don't like that way, but don't push them away or hurt them with mean words. Tell them what's wrong and they might actually help you. Try to find a way you like to tell people things. Your family cares, but you just don't know it. Just don't hate. If a friend comes to you, don't snap at them and tell them to go away. Tell them what's wrong. If they are good friends they will care. If not, they're bad. They just push away from people by not helping friends try[ing] not to push away from their family.

Wonder Day 6.23.15


I suppose I would just like to be a wiser, kinder, better person. I can't say I'm entirely content with who I am. I want to become my friend's strength, but I don't know how. I want to be less selfish and I want to understand things. Being who I am, I am constantly relying on others and I hate that. I want to become a reliable person who can house other people's emotions and foster good relationships. I'm scared because I feel like I may perpetually be this small, dependent person, completely ignorant of the world. And I'm scared I will never be able to help my friend who I care for so much.  - high school student, Florida

I separated my saucer section and flew off on my own (with a little help from friends).
