Missing Too Much Too Soon..

You'll miss out on the great things in life.

Missing Too Much Too Soon..

Every day somewhere someone decided to take their life far too soon. I am telling you, DON'T DO IT. Every second you will be missed I promise...

To the child who went too soon... I don't personally know anyone who did this but you still matter please know that.

I know it is hard and I know it hurt but you missed a great chance at life. I wish someone would have gotten to you sooner and I wish someone was more on your side for you. There is always someone to call and I wish you would have done it. You should have grown. You didn't get to graduate high school or graduate college. You'll miss out on the love of your life and miss out on having babies of your own. I'm sorry for whatever happened to you that made you do this. I know you didn't believe the words "it gets better" but it would have. I wish you got the chance to see the better happen.

To the adult who decided to leave too early...

Joe.. We miss you every day down here. I know what you were going through was far worse than life in your eyes but we could have helped. You left us way too soon. I didn't get to know you as well as I could have when became mature and an adult myself. There is so much I didn't get to know about you. I didn't get to get close to you as much as I wanted. I consider you my uncle and I wish you were still here for me to tell you that. My dad misses you every day. Your son misses you every day. Your parents, your sister, your friends, and anyone who was blessed to meet you misses you every single day. I promise we could have helped. I only wish you would have given us the chance. I was too young to understand the true story at the time but now that I know, I could kick your ass for taking that way out. I'm sad for you. I'm sad you're missing the chance to watch John grow. He is becoming an extraordinary young man from what I have been told. He is just like you. I talk to my dad about you sometimes and your mom when I get the chance to see that wonderful woman. I would do anything to have you back and help you find happiness. You shouldn't have left but I hope you found peace. I guarantee you became the bright and shining angel you were when you were alive.

To the person considering it...

You are far too important. It isn't always going to be like this. You will move you. You will grow up and start your own family. Talk to someone and get help. You'll miss out on too much and too many people care for you to leave. Don't stop living because you will be someone so great one day if you aren't someone super already.

If you are ever considering suicide talk to a friend, family, counselor, or 1-800- 273-8255.

Joe your halo shined bright even when you were still here with us. I love you and so does dad. <3

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.
