A Letter To Those Who Feel Broken

Look, I know you feel broken. But it's okay to be broken; everyone is broken. No matter how hard people try to hold themselves together, or how perfect their life may seem, at one point or another, they felt exactly the way you have. They have been broken too. They've been shattered. They've thought it's never going to get better and everything is useless.

But they get up, dust themselves off, and fight harder. So what will you do with your broken pieces? Are you going to sit there and feel sorry for yourself? Or will you fight harder? Because at the end of the day, it's all a choice. You decide what you're going to do with your broken pieces. But most importantly always remember to give it all to God. He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds. (Psalms 147:3)

I also want you to know that there is beauty in your brokenness and you may wonder what is so beautiful about depression, anxiety, sickness or whatever your case may be. Beauty in brokenness is trusting God and His perfect timing. It is also realizing that when one is broken, God will put you back together and make something beautiful. It is also realizing that sometimes the answer may be no. "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts." (Isaiah 55:9)

So whenever you're feeling down again, just remember you are like a sword that is going through the process of being made. A sword goes through the fire and gets hit on in order to get the right shape and size and back into the fire. This process goes on until the desirable look is achieved. But at the end, it is shining brightly and beautiful.

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.
