People don't really take me seriously, and in general I don't want them to. I am the sun who likes to radiate in various ways, from enthusiasm and hope to jokes and humor. Sometimes, I don't feel that I belong in this world, for it is always clouded with the angriest skies across the land and in people's minds--but I'm glad that I'm here.

I want to spread light. Douse the people who are swallowing water with every breath, every step they take in golden beauty, let them see an entirely new perspective where the good can outshine the bad. Life has a funny way of beating the shit out of you in each way imaginable--right-side up, upside-down--but it's tough love. We need to grow ourselves a spine and we need to think about what it all means, why we're learning the hard way and why there's still a bright side to the assault.

We're the citizens of Panem for a reason, aren't we? This is what we have to face everyday.

The Games are a monstrosity, but everyone who enters them let their lives and their souls be sacrificed for everyone else. It is not the most ideal ending we want for ourselves, but their names and their faces--they all deserve to be remembered for giving themselves up.

They deserve better, we all do--but this is what we get. This is all we have.

So why don't we make the best of it?
