A Letter To The Boy Who Saved Me
Kaitlin Lesneski

I want to start this letter of by saying thank you. Thank you for showing me what real love is, and what it means to be appreciated by someone.

Before I met you I wasn't in a good place. I was determined to never let my walls down for anyone ever again. I thought love wasn't meant for me or that I wasn't good enough for anybody. I thought that I was better off alone because no one wanted to deal with my anxiety attacks and my constant mood swings. I especially didn't think any boy would be able to overlook my past. But then you came along and you took it all in stride. I don't think I could ever thank you enough.

Our love story started out the same as anyone else. I saw you and automatically knew you were the one I wanted to be with. I was determined to be with you. We finally went out on a date and that day, whether you realize it or not, was one of the best days of my life. We became official that day and I was the happiest I had been in a long time. I still am the happiest I have been in a long time.

I am not sure how to describe the feeling you give me. It isn't exactly butterflies or euphoric but it is somewhere in between. You came into my life exactly when I needed you to. In a way, you could say that you saved me. You saved me from myself because I was on a sure path of self destruction. And again, I cannot thank you enough for it. You help me everyday with my anxious feelings, and my mood swings, and when I get sad for no reason You always know the exact thing to say to turn it all around.

I am not the best at talking about my feelings, but for some reason with you it all feels so natural. You make it easy to just enjoy my days. Instead of dreading waking up everyday, I look forward to it because that means I get to talk to you again. You bring out the better side in me. I honestly cannot tell you the last time I had this smile on my face, and it is all because of you and the affect you have on me. It is hard to put into words, but just know you are the light of my day, everyday.

I want to tell you that I love you. I love every part of you. I love your past, present, and your future. I love your perfections and your imperfections. I love all of these things about you simply because without them, you would not be you. I love you for you, and I wouldn't ask for anything else. You are my rock, and without you, I wouldn't be on a very good path today.

Thank you for supporting me ineverything I do.

Sincerely,

The Girl You Saved

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.
