An Open Letter To The Guy Who Stayed

In this generation finding a genuine guy with his head on straight seems to be a 1/832974742 chance. But I got lucky, and for some reason I wanted to push him as far away as possible because I didn't think it could be possible, to find someone so perfect for me. Through everything I've done, I'm SO glad you didn't leave. So here is to the guy who stayed..

All you see on social media these days are these absurd relationship goals that no one can ever really achieve, or their extremely corny and you don't want them. But for some reason our generation loves them, we think that is what our love should look like, that it blinds us from true love. We don't see our loved ones doing the things we see in movies, but they do every other thing right and we're still not pleased. Being a young minded teenager I had what seemed to be the perfect guy who did it all right, showed me, constant love, supported me in every little thing he could, just like the movies. But for some reason every opportunity I had I wanted to push him away. Every time something went bad in my life I pushed him away when all he wanted to do was be there for me and do nothing but help me.

As I sat there alone begging for attention from everyone else but the guy who wanted to give it to me I realized that he was the one that I wanted but I didn't think I was good enough. I didn't believe that someone so pure could be all in for me, and not want anyone but me. Looked at me as if I was the only one in this universe, he told me every day how much he loved me and how he wanted to spend the rest of his life with me. At the time that scared the crap out of me, I got scared and left him again.. how could I leave this beautiful person and hurt the person I loved and adored so much. Of course, I always got my mind right and wanted him back and every time I went back (3 to be exact) I knew I hurt him but his love for me did nothing but grow. That right there is beautiful, he never knew if I was going to come back but he was always ready.

So as I sit here thinking about this journey we've been on together for three years, I have nothing to say but Thank You to the guy who never left my side no matter how many times I begged him too. Thank you for loving me unconditionally through every little bump, and always staying true to yourself. If one of those times you would have been done with me, I wouldn't be able to do anything but wish you well and know you would be the one who got away. But God decided to continue blessing me with your beautiful, genuine soul, and for that I will be forever grateful.I love you now, and I will love you forever.

6 Things Owning A Cat Has Taught Me
Liz Abere

Owning a pet can get difficult and expensive. Sometimes, their vet bills cost hundreds of dollars just for one visit. On top of that, pets also need food, a wee wee pad for a dog, a litter box with litter for a cat, toys, and treats. Besides having to spend hundreds of dollars on them, they provide a great companion and are almost always there when you need to talk to someone. For the past six years, I have been the proud owner of my purebred Bengal cat named Spock. Although he's only seven years and four months old, he's taught me so much. Here's a few of the things that he has taught me.

It's fun to see all of the selfies on social media, they are everywhere. I see pictures with pouty lips, duck lips and pucker lips. I see smokey eyes, huge fake lashes and nicely done nose jobs, boob jobs and butt lifts. Women working out in spandex, tiny tops and flip flops. I see tight abs and firm butts, manicured nails and toes, up dos and flowing hair. "Wow", I think to myself," I could apply tons of make-up, spend an hour on my hair, pose all day and not look like that. Maybe I need a longer stick!"

The names and dates of the reigns of the first four kings, as well as the alternation of Sabin and Latin names, are more legendary than historical. The last three kings, of Etruscan origin, have an existence which seems less uncertain.

It is evident that all this is only a legend although archeology shows us little by little that these kings if they did not exist as the ancient history, describes them, have at least in the very Outlines were real as chief of a shepherd’s tribe. The period when kings ruled Rome could estimate at 245 years.
