You know that person, the person who you want to give the world to but they won't let you? It's the worst kind of feeling. Knowing that you have so much love to give and they feel as though they aren't deserving of it? I can't say I don't get it because there have been numerous times that I have felt as though I was undeserving of love. But here's the thing — if someone is going to love me, they're promising me that they will be there for me, then I'm going to let them. There is no better feeling than being loved by those around you. Whether it be a friendship type of love or more than that — it's all worth fighting for.

To the person who I chose to love, who feels as though they aren't worthy of what I have to give —

I wish that you would stop being so hard on yourself. Stop thinking the worst about yourself and feeling as though you're an awful person. You don't see it, but like I've told you a million times: you're one of the greatest people that I know. And nothing can change that.

I wish that you would let your guard down and allow people in. It's almost like you are trying as hard as you can to purposefully keep everyone out. But here's the thing: there are so many people who are wanting to love you and care for you — you just have to let them. I know people have let you down in the past, but if you hold that against every person you meet then you won't ever find what you are looking for.

I wish that you would find whatever you are looking for. You want to self-reflect and be alone, well I hope that you find whatever it is that you're longing for. Even if it's not — I wish you nothing but happiness. You deserve nothing less than that.

I wish that you would see the beauty in this world. You have so much to offer and give to others but you first need to see the beauty of what's around you.

I wish that you would be successful in your life. Not that you already aren't, because you are one of the most driven and hardworking people I know.

I wish that you would open up. I wish that you would stop closing yourself off from everyone. I wish you would see what is right in front of you. I wish that you saw yourself the way that I do. I wish that you would be happy. I wish that you would be pain-free and that the heavy weight on your shoulders would disappear. I wish you the best life possible and that you learn to be happy with yourself. I wish nothing but the best for you, because even though I wasn't able to give it to you, that doesn't mean that you don't deserve it.
