when will i

This is a weed.
And it holds every child’s hopes and dreams.
“Weed” is a word for “plant I don’t know how to do anything with yet.” But weeds, as a rule, are successful species. Because they can grow anywhere and they can live through anything.
So can you.
Be a weed. Grow, adapt, flourish, and don’t give a fuck what anyone else thinks of you because of how pretty or useful you are. You are. That is enough.
This. This is the most inspiring thing I have ever read

I’ll tell you what’s wrong with this picture: assumption.
This picture has gone viral as thousands of people deliver searing indictments of both smartphones and teens.
I’ve met a couple of teens. I’ve had a couple smartphones. Could these teens be playing Angry Birds or texting stupid jokes to each other? Yeah, they could.
But they could also be googling provenance for that painting or taking a second to text a friend about how amazing the museum is or completing an assignment given off-screen by someone standing just beside the photographer. They could be taking notes about the palette choice so that later they turn into a generation of artists that take your breath away.
What’s wrong with this picture? Nothing, until proven otherwise. Welcome to 2014.
