The fuck, Teacup, cheer up D: what kind of way to see the world is that? They're not permanent, so what? Enjoy them while they are here, people just come and go but they will never disappear for you. Society will use your talents, yes, just don't be stupid enough to not receive the equivalent of them. Better to not be a slave and starve than to be one and also whine about it. Jelously only drives away the people that weren't your friends anyway, better for you if they leave. Your foes are only stronger if you let them think that's how you see them. If you don't like to be fucked over then fuck them instead. If you think your struggle is not worthy, change targets. Meh, why feel about this world's bullshit when you can just live your life without being affected. You're strong, Katie, more than this. You've learnt already how to sit in the same table with the devil and still enjoy your life. I've seen you do so.

Teacup please cheer up. :( Haise is right also. Don't give in and fall apart like so many other people I have witnessed that happened to. Be strong!

Soldiers, Sailors and Airmen of the Allied Expeditionary Forces: You are about to embark upon the Great Crusade, toward which we have striven these many months. The eyes of the world are upon you. The hopes and prayers of liberty-loving people everywhere march with you. In company with our brave Allies and brothers-in-arms on other Fronts you will bring about the destruction of the German war machine, the elimination of Nazi tyranny over oppressed peoples of Europe, and security for ourselves in a free world. Your task will not be an easy one. Your enemy is well trained, well equipped and battle-hardened. He will fight savagely. But this is the year 1944. Much has happened since the Nazi triumphs of 1940-41. The United Nations have inflicted upon the Germans great defeats, in open battle, man-to-man. Our air offensive has seriously reduced their strength in the air and their capacity to wage war on the ground. Our Home Fronts have given us an overwhelming superiority in weapons and munitions of war, and placed at our disposal great reserves of trained fighting men. The tide has turned. The free men of the world are marching together to victory. I have full confidence in your courage, devotion to duty, and skill in battle. We will accept nothing less than full victory. Good Luck! And let us all beseech the blessing of Almighty God upon this great and noble undertaking. Dwight Ensenhower
