ashley alive
I’m Ashley, eighteen and from boring ‘ol Kentucky.
I want to be an explorer and go on adventures for the rest of my life. I want to fall in love. I love, love every kind of music and fashion is a slight passion. I have a completely unfounded, life-long dedication and love for The Fray. Ed Sheeran is utterly remarkable. I have the biggest fangirl affair with One Direction. They're flawless. All Time Low, The Hunger Games, Harry Potter, Disney. Yes. I’ve grown a lot in the past few months and live my life for me now. I quite fancy British accents and plan on living in London or Manhattan by the time I’m 24. I love tattoos; I love how freely you can express yourself. I would be fine if I could drop out of school tomorrow and soar. I admittedly like to be alone but wouldn’t ignore a good conversation. I’m starting to come into my own and I think everything that I post here can coincide with that.
I’m going to make something of my life and have no intentions of staying in this state or even this country. I want to see the world, climb Mount Everest and The Great Wall, ride on The London Eye and go on a safari in Africa. I’m most comfortable in an airport alone where no one knows an ounce about me. I just want to be the person that I am inside of my head.
I want to fly.

It’s…scary and a bit ironic how true this is. I don’t think it is just for me, but for a lot of cutters. Each scar has a story, maybe a different reason for its existence. But that’s not true for all, because it became a habit for me. It became a motion I had to do daily, whether there was a reason or not. I haven’t self harmed since November, but I fight the urge every minute of everyday. I usually tell myself multiple times a day that I’ll “do it in a few minutes”, but it never comes. Thankfully. Each of my 170 scars is a memory and each time I don’t do it, it’s a pivotal point for me in my life. I just hope that I can stick with it, though I know I’ll have to fight it for the rest of my life.

    I’m glad I don’t cut anymore but if I did I would write “love yourself” instead of making bloody lines
