My Heart, My Soul

What lies underneath it all.

My Heart, My Soul

Life is a funny thing, like Forrest Gump once said, "Life is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you're gonna get." I know that sounds a bit cliché, but it's true when it comes to life in general. We look at people and know nothing about them and automatically assume we know their whole life story, but in reality we know nothing and what's more sad is that sometimes we don't even know ourselves. Our own hearts and our own souls. Who am I? What's my purpose? Did I help? Did I make it worse? Questions like these are something we ask ourselves every day, but the one that sticks out the most is, "Why am I like this?"

Throughout life we tend to go through many bumps on the road. Whether they're permanent bumps or minor bumps, we tend to keep it in our minds for the rest of our lives. Sometimes it feels that there is no hope in this world or any hope in our lives and no matter what's going on at times people tend to shut themselves out of this world and out of their own lives.

Luckily there are people that do care about us and only want the best for us even if we don't feel it or even see it. Life is an everyday struggle especially when you're fighting something you don't even know what it is or something that's a lot stronger than you. No matter what we say to ourselves sometimes it feels that we can't do anything about it. You tend to doubt your own purpose in life and begin to go blind to everything in life.

The struggle of not knowing what'll happen in the next coming days, weeks, months, years, and even hours. It leaves you in a state of alert that you can't even comprehend the pain and the stress it brings to only one human being. Just like they say positiveness can be spread, well so can the negativity be spread.

What is there to do in a time like this? Who can we talk to about this that goes on every day? Can we even call anyone? In our minds there is always a sense of doubt in everything one does and no matter what outcome can come out of it, only the bad is the only outcome. Even when one is wrong and the good tends to shine and bring out the best you come to wonder if it's even all real.

I can't speak for other people I can only speak for myself. I don't know what'll happen in the coming of months or even years, but what I do know that it will be something interesting to find out. The outcome may shock many or maybe just one. It can affect many or maybe just one. At the end of the day only one person will know and can be the only person to spread whatever he or she is feeling.

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.
