i don't want to be rude or disrespectful to your interests, but why do you like Lolita? i genuinely want to know, because to me its vile.

Oh, love, I know you’re not trying to be and thank you for being so kind about that! But I love Lolita because of Dolores Haze. She is the hero of the story. I also love it (when I say love I mean think of it in a higher sense / think of it in another way than just a book and a film / take so much from it) because I myself have had my own Lolita story as a young girl. Not under the exact same circumstances, but from the older man with a younger girl, or a younger me. I love Lolita because Dolores’s attitude, style and overall dedication to escape, be free and to be who she is and to not be pushed down or around by some crazy nutcase who considers obsession to be a form of true love. I love Lolita, I love Dolores because I can see myself inside of her, inside of who she is and her whole person. Of course others are going to find it vile because it’s about a pedophile taking advantage, kidnapping and sexually abusing a young girl who only wanted a father, her mother back and just a normal life to grow up into adulthood. Dolores was forced to become an adult and to explore a world at too early of an age by someone who should have protected her as a father instead of trying to be a lover and cage her. There is a Dolores among so many of us and I just find the story and film to be captivating because even though it goes so far, it shows us a real light upon the evilness inside of a sick mans mind. It shows us the length of which someone, a young girl, will go to escape and to be allowed to be herself and not be kept down by an obsessed lunatic. Lolita is not a love story. I do not enjoy it for Humbert. I am only there for Dolores. Dolores is the hero. Dolores is the reason I am in awe and will always be.

“I met him when I thought

that hope was no longer

on my side. He came into

my life when I was in the midst

of leaving romance behind.

He appeared in my life

when I thought loneliness

was the only one who ever

gave a damn. He loved me

when I almost started to

question if this kind of passion

would ever be inside

of my very own hands.”

What's blackout day?

A post that I came across - 

“For those who don’t know, Blackout Day is a day where black people post, share, reblog, like, and distribute other photos of black people on social media. This includes tumblr, instagram, the petri dish known as facebook, vine, twitter, and any other site that allows you to share photos. This is only for black people.”

Here is also a post for you to read more about it!

it's blackout day.. so you really shouldn't post pictures of yourself.. it's not your day it's their day.. so please don't post pictures of yourself.. have some respect..

Oh, I’m sorry! I didn’t know that it was! I’ve been watching The Hobbit and filtering off and on of Tumblr (mostly to just post things / to check recent updated posts on my blogs). Thank you for bringing this to my attention!

“I don’t want you to go. I want you here with me. I’ll be selfish by saying that I need you here, with me, always. When you’re gone it feels as if my body is missing a piece of itself. They can call me pathetic, weak, but when it comes down to it, you are my fix. You are the addiction I have yet to find ways to quit. And I don’t want to quit you. Without you I am always wandering around aimlessly, always looking for another supplement that comes close to the feeling I feel when I’m with you.”
