I Have Some Choice Words For You

An Open Letter To Donald Trump
Forward

Dear Mr. Trump,

I have some choice words for you, unfortunately, as this is a public article, I must show some censorship, however, I will not undermine my deep feelings of anger at your heinous attitudes and beliefs pertaining to certain subjects. As a citizen of the United States, it is my right to say that you are not fit to run America and for many good reasons. Although you are a great businessman, you lack some qualities needed to be president including honesty, self-control, and tolerance. America needs someone who is able to handle situations without getting defense when someone does not agree with everything you say. America needs someone who can be honest and straightforward no matter how horrible the situation may be. We do not need someone who will deviate from the truth.

As far as equality goes, you show very little indication that you want America to be a country where everyone is treated with the same rights with regards to gender, sexual orientation, and ethnicity. Your words and actions strongly demonstrate your prejudice against same-sex couples and other members of the LGBTQ community by stating, “I'm not in favor of gay marriage. They should not be able to marry.” Although you claim to be “for” the LGBTQ community, your words prove otherwise. I have beautiful friends in the LGBT community and they deserved to have the same rights as heterosexual couples. America needs a leader who values the freedom and equality that is clearly guaranteed in our constitution.

Aside from your prejudice against the LGBTQ community and other ethnicities, you are also a misogynist. This is not the old days where women were treated as accessories and considered inferior to men. Your comments that pregnant women are an “inconvenience for businesses” is not only an insult to women but a sexist joke as well. I honestly do not know how you made it this far in the election, but congrats to you for trying to win over America with your bullsh*t (pardon my French). I am in no way saying that Hilary Clinton is much better, but she knows how to remain cool, calm, and collected when presented with a difficult situation. You couldn’t even control your tongue during the first presidential debate, which makes me wonder how you would handle other stressful situations if you become president.

If you truly want to “make America great again”, it’s time to put outside the racial slurs and inequality and start seeking out what is best for America rather than spreading lies to boost your morale. If you truly want to be the change that America needs, it is time that you consider the views from other groups instead of relying on those that conveniently match your beliefs. I want to live in America knowing that I am safe. I do not want to have to worry about walking down the street, wondering whether I’ll get shot because of the color of my skin.

I will never choose someone who claims to have America's best interest at heart but goes against everything America stands for. You must choose your words carefully if you want to be the next president. You should choose to love rather than hating an entire race. I hope you choose your battles wisely.

Sincerely,

The Girl Who's Had Enough

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.
