You've been through so much and you still fight. You inspire me, friend.

To My Lost And Broken Friend
Celina Mylene Santana

First I want to tell you that I love you. I worry about you every day. Life can be so hard and lately it has been horrible for you. But you don't have to carry your burdens alone. You have a right to feel your pain as wholly and fully as you need to, but you don't have to distance yourself. I understand that if you need to be alone then you need to be alone but if you are hiding because you are scared of ruining my day then you have it all wrong. If you need me, then there is nowhere else in the entire world I'd rather be then next to you helping you with whatever you need.

I call you my friend, and that isn't a title I give out to just anyone. Friends affect who you are as a person, so I'm careful about who I surround myself with. In a friend I want someone caring, fun, kind, and someone who will have my back. I would never have called you my friend if I thought you were a bad person. I know it's hard to see your self-worth right now, but I know how special you are and if I could I'd let you see yourself through my eyes. You're the type of person who I am proud to point at and yell as loudly as I can, "That person is my friend!"

I can't pretend to know how you feel, but I see your pain. There has been so much pain and negativity in your life lately. If I could I would gladly take your pain from you and hide you from it. I know the pain is distorting the way you see the world and you feel alone. You aren't alone. You are cherished and you are loved. I am here for you, and I'm not the only one. You are so scared that everyone is going to leave you because people who were supposed to love you have left. But I won't. I swear to you that I will never leave you, especially when you are in pain. I will admit that I do have classes, work and other things that I have to turn my phone off during but know that even when I can't be there physically for you it doesn't mean I don't care or that you are unloved.

Part of the hurt that you feel comes from not knowing what to do. I don't have all the answers. I probably don’t have any of the answers. I can’t tell you what to do or how to react to things but I am here to listen and help in any way I can. I will offer my advice anytime I can and when I can't I'll offer my shoulder and some ice cream.

You are so strong. You've been through so much and you still fight. You inspire me friend. I love you and I will always have your back. There will always be hard times but you will never have to go through them alone.

Your loyal friend,

Celina Mylene Santana

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
