To the person who loves me next

Marilyn put it best...

To the person who loves me next

"I'm selfish, impatient, and a little insecure. I make mistakes. I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best." -Marilyn Monroe

Please be patient with me. I've been let down time and time again. I let my guard down so many times just to be stomped on repeatedly by anyone and everyone I've ever let in. Now as Mr. Trump would like to say, the wall is built. I will be hesitant when it comes to tearing that wall back down, be patient.

I'm not easy to love. I'm difficult and stubborn. I don't like to let people in. I have awful anxiety and sometimes I get sad for no apparent reason. I'm not perfect. I'll notice and question the slightest change in your tone because everyone that gets close always leaves. I'll probably annoy you, piss you off, and stay stupid things that make you want to scream at me multiple times a week, maybe even a day, but don't because in five minutes (or less) I'll be begging to cuddle.

I love everyone else more than they love me. I've always been the girl who went the extra mile. DD making sure my friends get home. Buying ten billion Christmas gifts because I don't want anyone to feel left out. Chasing the tech bus down with Taco Bell's twelve pack for my friends. I always go the extra step for the ones I love even if they're not willing to for me.

Cherish my trust. Trust has become such a hard concept these days. Reassurance is never a bad thing. I'm going to be leery of your honesty because of my past. Use your actions to prove rather than your words. I am so understanding and willing to forgive, there is absolutely no reason I should ever be lied to. I truly believe the painful truth is worth way more than a comforting lie.

I appreciate the little things. I'm not hard to make happy. Ice cream, Chinese, "chicky" tenders, food of any sort really will make me happy. Little adventures whether it be to the grocery store, or for a walk on the break wall make me a happy girl.

I will love you with every fiber of my being. I'm not one to hold back. I can't half-ass love. I want to see you be the best that you can be, while you bring out the best in me. You'll never question my feelings because I'm one who always fears missed opportunities. The thought of losing someone unexpectedly and not being on good terms with them is something I truly cannot fathom.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
