The Pursuit of Happiness

I always start my journals like so....
My name is Sierra Copeland. I have blue eyes, freckles, and whatever color of hair that I want. (Should I tell you some other worthless things about myself?) ;) Then I might ramble on about the rest of my day, what I did, who I love, who I want to love etc. Sometimes though, I want to write what I really see. What I really hear, what I really feel, what I really know. What I think I know. Sometimes I am sooo grateful that no one knows me here, and others times I just want to spill out everything. I never do, and I never will. I'm happy today, it's good. It feels good to be happy. I am scared that I look to hard to find happiness, when sometimes I can feel it here at my fingertips, brushing softly, discreetly enough to be misread as to far away. To far away. It feels good to grasp frozen hands on the ball of sunshine that is happiness..

who wouldn't be.

i'm depressed so here I am. i will just be way straightforward and say that I am angry right now. so angry. i don't understand and I want to be at home.
i'm angry.
i'm scared.
i'm lonely.
i'm tired.
i'm confused.
i'm frustrated.
i'm all alone.
i'm really tired.
i'm the most angry.

i know why i'm angry, but i also know that I am over reacting. but who wouldn't be after I saw what happened six months ago. WHO WOULDN'T BE!

.Capitalized.Kaya.

dear kaya,
you were who i came to so long ago when i was alone. and i haven't came back since.
i don't know why it is we resort to things of our past when it feels like there is nothing left to resort too. Actually, kaya, I have good roommates now, i wonder if my life will change around now.
it's funny kaya, how I was thinking how i didn't really miss you, and then I realized that i had nothing to miss because you my friend were replaced.
today i realize that bad things can happen to anyone, and do happen to everyone. 
and btw, falling in love doesn't suck, as long as you know at the beginning that you will get hurt.
You will get hurt.
love, sierra

Horizons

the worst feeling in the world is looking to see a bright and sunshine filled hurricane in my rear view mirror while dark and dangerous clouds fill up my front window, and I have no other choice but to drive into them.
It made me think, or realize, or wonder that maybe the most courageous thing we do is to make a decision, realize there is no going back, and face the consequence of that decision head on.
I guess realizing, or dreaming, or stumbling upon ideas is a blessing from God.
Because without a spark of curiosity in life, none of us would wake up, because the only reason we wake up every morning is the spark in our hearts that makes us open our eyes and wonder...
"what will today bring into my horizon, what will today leave in my rear view mirror"

let me tell you why

Let me tell you why, it could be that the sun shines here, it shines right to me, as if I was the only person it had to keep happy, to keep alive.
Let me tell you why, it could be that I hear myself laugh again, and my voice is raw because there are people instead of fears.
Let me tell you why, it could be that this is where I first fell in love. Not just with a boy, but with nature, with the sky. It could be because here, everything is in love, the leaves give gentle kisses to the blue sky, the sky hugs the red rock, because they know here, that tomorrow everything could be different.
Let me tell you why, it is the similarities I see with me and the city. We are one here. I feel like the city surrounds my goals, and dreams and takes them in as it's own.
Let me tell you why, it could be the talking for hours, the knowledge, how I react because she reacts. It's because I know her so well.
Let me tell you why, it might be because of my him, and his interrogation skill none, and wanted by the FBI. How even someone small can rise and mean the world to people, change lives, including mine.
Let me tell you why, It might be because I see her, teaching all day, and teaching me at night, telling me that things will indeed be alright. Even when they aren't.
Let me tell you why, it could be the memories. they will always be here because when i was a child i buried them in the backyard for safe keeping.
Let me tell you why, it's because it was here that everything was perfect and my fears melted like a popsicle in my hand and left the remnants and the sticky there for later.
Let me tell you why, it's because I know the soil is just as grateful as I am when it rains. The rain is filled with sadness for those who are not here now. For memories I never want to dig up again.
Let me tell you why, it's because here, my roommate is like me on the outside, but completely different on the inside. And your outlook on life has everything to do with that inside.
It's crying in my room
Walking down main street barefoot
Seeing the people, that matters most to me
Knowing that here, somewhere here, I can stand on top of the world and yell as loud as I can
LET ME TELL YOU WHY!

Girl With The Red Balloon

"She's in love, and she won't be again."
today I woke up and I felt alive again.
       I remember back in elementary school watching a silent film about a boy and a balloon. I love it when memories come back and relate to us now. How a memory captured in a photo can last forever. We have invented a way to hold on to people forever.  Meeting again the people you once loved, only to love them more than the last time. You really don't know how great something is until it is gone.
You'd think I would try and learn from their mistakes.
There is always something out there though that I never get to see, or touch. I want to feel but I am to scared. It's like the first time I ever wrote that short story that I later named SUCCESS. Then I thought I knew about success, i thought that I had learned. But I hadn't, and I won't.
I was with Kylah again yesterday. And what does she know of success?

I'm watching him sink.
I'm hearing the end.
This isn't fair,
I hope for change
And sometimes it comes
Fate, isn't the same for everyone
It's different.
But it's there, I believe
My heart races every time I hear
Every time.
It's like mystery,
it's like horror
Genre.
Genre.
Romance, no.
Action, no.
Comedy, no.
I trust strangers now
I trust them!
With his life
We don't talk about this
No talking
This is down
on the hush hush
We pretend
Talking,,
that would make it real
Reality.
My head turns
Cringing at the word.
Becuase,
Why do we have to do this?
No answers
Silence
No talking
Silence
Fake.
Give me anything!
I'm blessed,
No deal.

Well I'm so sad tonight, and the words won't come out right. It's been a long day on the track, and it's stamina that I lack. So won't you run to me tonight. Tonight let's not talk about next summer Cause I will only ever be a Middle Distance Runner.
Well my heart is beating hard and I'm off with a shot at the start. And my legs tremble from strain. And by the finish line I am drained. And won't you run to me tonight? Tonight let's not talk about next summer. Cause I will only ever be a Middle Distance Runner. Well I'm so proud tonight of the woman you've become. And I'm just to tired to fight. So my darling, i'll succomb. But you'll have to run to me tonight, tonight I will love you forever. But I will only ever be a middle distance runner

Really.
Tonight, I will love you forever.
