Poetry On The Odyssey: Let Them Talk

Readers!

This piece is dedicated to those who feel negativity of others getting in the way of their dreams or goals. There is never one way to get to anything, no matter what someone else tells you. I truly hope this week's poem helps you overcome and believe in yourself and those that genuinely support you. You got this. You always have.



Sometimes you have to let your actions

Take you where they think you couldn't go

It wasn't enough to talk about it

There was the need to find yourself

Accept yourself

Live yourself

Sometimes you have to let go

Take what you learned from them

Make it motivation for where you want to be

Sometimes we have to allow ourselves time

To hear the doubt of others

Let them talk

Let them believe they've got it all right

For these are the people that will search

High and Low

Far and Wide

When you are at the best place

When you feel the happiest

They'll find worth

Value that you always knew was there

As strange as this sounds,

It helps to truly maintain

Focus and prosperity

Sometimes you have to let your actions

Win the victories for you

No need to dig up past woes

No desire to uncover past disputes

No want to see others waiver

The only thing seen in it all

Is your dreams

They matter

They are crucial

So let them talk

Let them think they've figured it out

Let them feel they know who you are

While you achieve all you've ever wanted

Give gentle odes to those who were there

When you sat on all but nothing

But hope

Defeat

Perseverance

For they are the people who will stand the test of time

No matter if you are spiritually wealthy

Or broke

These are the people who

Always knew and believed in you

You've got this

There is nothing more true

You've always had this

Sometimes we need reminders

Of what we're capable of

And how far we can go

Sometimes you have to let your actions

Truly speak all alone

Here's to more adventures of yours!

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.
