To The Guys I Wasn't Good Enough For

I promise, I'm doing just fine

To The Guys I Wasn't Good Enough For
Katie Plane

Who are you pursuing now?

Now that you have left me, for reasons I still cannot understand, what kind of girl are you pursuing? Is she anything like I am? What does she have that I do not? And if you are not going after anyone, are you really still "in need of finding yourself"? Or was that just told to me so you could live the single life once again?

I cannot tell you what a breath of relief it is to me to realize that you and I were not meant to be together. Really. Now I won't go all Kelly Clarkson's "Since U Been Gone" on you, but once you left, that is when I was able to find myself all over again. Of course, I was heartbroken, I mean who wouldn't be? Once you pour your life into someone else's hands, and then they spill you all over the place, it seems so impossibly difficult to put the pieces back together. But I am so proud of myself for realizing that you were not the real deal.

I can promise you right now that I am in fact doing quite alright. No, you do not cross my mind every waking moment. I won't lie, sometimes I think about you and what you are doing, but then I realize that you no longer are worthy of a thought in my day. My motto has always been "out of sight, out of mind", and I promise that since you have been out of sight, it has been so much easier to get you out of my mind.

No, I do not want you back, nor think I will ever want to go down that road ever again. Sure, we can be "friends", or we could just never appear in each others lives ever again. Either way, I can promise that the feelings I may have had for you, are completely disintegrated. I am not some weak girl who will run back to you at the drop of a pin. Do you not remember our past? How you left me damaged?

It is okay, I promise, I have learned to forgive. I doubt that I will ever forget how I was treated, but that is only because I owe it to myself to never be treated how you treated me ever again. Ha. You probably thought I wanted to not forget about us because I still am in love with us. Please. Set your ego aside for just a quick minute and realize that not every girl you hurt wants to come back. We are strong, and we do realize over time that no guy is worth being hurt over.

To the heartbroken girls who are reading this, I commend you. For whatever reason you are no longer in a relationship for, I am proud of you. Whether you chose the right time to walk away, or got let down the hard way, I am proud of you and your heart. Sometimes I think that when these things happen, we often think we are not good enough, and that is why we are left in the dust. But I am living proof that no man will ever determine your worth,

and you ARE good enough.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
