Infertility And Miscarriages Make You See The World In A Different Light

How is anyone supposed to deal with such a horrid thing?

Infertility and miscarriages are a fairly common thing among couples, so what happens when a loving couple cannot have a child, a family, or even another responsibility to love? This can take a toll on anyone...

Of course, men take it hard when they find out their wives, or even themselves are infertile, but most women take it much harder. It is common for society to see a woman being a hard working mother, running all the errands, and keeping up with the kids; when women cannot do what is expected of society, they can begin to feel worthless.

Not only is it hard knowing you cannot have children, but it's worse thinking you are going to and then getting that taken from you in the blink of an eye. So many people are scarred from having a miscarriage, and can you blame them?

Let me give you an example scenario: You are 18 weeks pregnant with your little bundle of joy and are going in for your doctor's appointment. Today is "the day" you finally get to find out if you're having a boy or girl, pink or blue, basketball or cheerleading. It all comes down to this, but where is the heartbeat?

"No, that cannot possibly be true, there's no way they cannot find the heartbeat I know there is one!"

Your mind is scrambling and your thoughts are everywhere. What happens now?

How is anyone supposed to handle something this traumatic? Is it even possible? Yes, but it takes a lot. When something like this happens it can leave the parents emotionally scarred for life, and those scars take time to heal.

There it is; that is the answer. It is much easier said than done, but when something like this happens to someone they need time to learn to deal with the pain, and that is what everyone around them needs to give them.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
