An Open Letter To HGTV

Thanks for always being my go-to channel.

An Open Letter To HGTV

Dearest HGTV,

Over the years I have really grown to like and appreciate you. In my opinion, you are the best channel that is offered on cable. Whether is it “Flip or Flop”, “Fixer Upper”, “Property Brothers”, or “House Hunters”, I am always entertained. Personally, I have grown to favor Fixer Upper because I love the work of Chip and Joanna Gaines. All of the shows that you broadcast exhibit so much talent, but Chip and Joanna have really stood out to me over the past few months.

I think that my mother is responsible for my obsession with you. You are always her go-to channel, so when she has the television on in the house, nine times out of ten you are playing. My mom loves home decorating. I have to say she has a knack for it. She has decorated every house that we have lived in by herself, and has always done a phenomenal job. She loves watching all of your shows to gather new ideas and to see the latest trends, and her love for you has definitely rubbed off on me.


I am so thankful that you have allowed me to gain an appreciation for interior design and home renovation. Your shows have taught me so much about the complexities of renovating homes as well as the challenges that come with it. I am amazed that the people on your channel can take a home that is completely rundown and make it into something extravagant. Being able to watch these transformations is so awesome, and even hard to believe at times. I love seeing creative individuals embrace their passion and do so successfully because it truly inspires me. They have a special talent that many people do not possess.


You have opened my eyes to the world of flooring, shiplap, countertops, molding, and so much more. You have provided me with the opportunity to see houses across the country. I am able to explore the world through you and learn about the cultural differences that exist in regards to living space.


I have to say that you have become more than just a television channel to me. You have become a great distraction for me when I’m stressed or feeling down. You have taught me so much, inspired me, motivated me to channel my inner creativity and put it to use, and have ultimately pushed me to keep an open mind. I have grown to appreciate my home as well as my community because of you and what you have presented to me.


I want to take this opportunity to thank you for being a friend to me and for making me a better person. Although I am not on track to becoming an interior designer or an architect, I know that I will always carry you with me throughout my life. I cannot wait to decorate my first home one day and implement all of the amazing ideas that you have offered to me. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Your Biggest Fan

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.
