2014 - The year of returning.
For something to be beautiful it doesn’t have to be pretty.

So, some of you probably might know that I live in Poland, and today I wanted to share a little talk about what happened in a city named Bialystok.
Basically, a few days ago there was a pride parade in this city. It wouldn't be so extraordinary, if it wasn't the fact that a lot of people were brutally attacked. No, seriously.
There was a bunch of shitty nationalists (we usually call them "narodowcy"), who were throwing firecrackers, glass bottles, stones and even bricks at marching people. They were also shouting homophobic slurs and things like "God, honour, Fatherland", "Our Father, who art in heaven" or "Get the fuck out of my country, faggots". My best friend, who attended the march, confessed to me that she and her girlfriend were hit by some firecrackes and it took them really long to finally bandage all wounds and burns.
I'm so disgusted by this country. I am already horribly afraid to take my rainbow bag somewhere or attach a little pride flag to my backpack, imagine what these people must have felt.
I also want to add that there were like 5,000 attackers, which is five times more than the marchers. Not to mention that right next to these homophobes there were baby carriages and toddlers.
Please, stay strong, my loves, no matter where you live in or who you are. We need to have hope for a better future. I am so afraid, I want to escape this place as quickly as possible.
Please, reblog this, we need to spread awareness, since media is fucking silent.

one of the signs of alcoholism is drinking when no one is watching
The body of Molu Zarpeleh, 10, who was reported missing last Thursday night, was recovered from a privately-owned retention pond along 12th Street South around 8:40 a.m. Friday after authorities searched the pond, according to a new release from the City of Brookings.
A tip that Zarpeleh had been pushed into the pond that circulated on social media has been redacted by the tipster, said Chelsea Bakken, public information officer for the City of Brookings. Investigators also reported that tips they received Friday related to circumstances surrounding the incident were not true but won’t state why. Police are ignoring it and ruling it an “accidental drowning but his mother says differently.
“A 10-year-old boy would not just take his sandals off and walk into the water,” she said. “He didn’t know how to swim.”
Brookings police and the Brookings Fire Department searched for Zarpeleh until about 2:30 a.m. Friday before the search was stopped due to safety concerns, poor lighting and murky water, the release states. Searchers used pumps from Brookings Municipal Utilities and Brookings County to remove about 300,000 gallons of water from the pond during the resumed search Friday morning
“Molu died, but I can’t say ‘was’ yet,” Mole said. “He’s my first child. He’s my only son. I don’t want to use the word ‘was.’ I can’t imagine him not living.”
