An Open Letter To The One I Lost

I lost the one person I never thought I could lose.

An Open Letter To The One I Lost

I never thought it would end like this; all this pain once was happiness. I never knew I could feel like this, but now my heart’s in pieces. When your heart is truly broken, you know, and so doesn’t everyone else. From the shaky hands to the tear stained eyes to the whimper in your voice; they know. It’s not hard to ignore it either. People would ask, “What happened? You guys were perfect together!” and the only reply they would get was a shaky, “I don’t know.” along with the tears running down my cheeks.

I couldn’t help but wonder if this was all just a nightmare I so desperately wanted to wake up from. I wanted the words, “It was just a dream.” to come off of your lips. But as I had guessed, they didn't. I woke up to a horrible reality; a life without the one I truly love. How am I supposed to go on living without the one I planned on living my life with? How am I supposed to learn to go to bed smiling without the normal goodnight, and I love you message? The comforting feeling of being loved and wanted was gone before I even had the chance to realize it.

But my biggest question is, how can I simply say goodbye to the greatest thing I’ve ever been able to call mine? That is by far the worst feeling that ran through my mind and soul. I had to learn not to cry when things got tough because I didn’t have you to dry my tears and hold me tight. I had to learn not to break down whenever I heard your laugh or saw your smile, because I knew those would never be caused by me again. I would give anything to go back in time and spend one more minute with you, or be able to hug you or kiss you just one more time.

So how am I supposed to start over now? I loved you with every piece of me; completely and utterly ‘head over heels’ for you. But ever since I lost you, it feels as though I don’t have a heart anymore. How do I breathe without my heart? How do I live without a heart? It’s impossible. I am lost in a world of sadness and despair. I miss home, and to me, home was in your arms; being able to look up at you and just thinking, “I’m the luckiest girl in the entire world”.

I would love you during all of our pointless fights, through all of your sad days, through all of mine. I would give anything to spend one more day with you; holding your hand and telling you just how much you mean to me. I wish I had the chance to prove myself to you again and show you the world. We had so many plans, so many memories, so many firsts for everything. One thing for sure was that you were my first real heartbreak, because seven months later, I still miss you just as much as I did the day you left. This pain in my heart is permanent, but so isn’t my love for you. I will always love you with every inch of my soul and being, and I hope one day, you will come back to me so I can show you the world and treat you how you so desperately deserve to be treated.

Sincerely,


The Girl Who Loves You

This one's for you, Spock.

6 Things Owning A Cat Has Taught Me
Liz Abere

Owning a pet can get difficult and expensive. Sometimes, their vet bills cost hundreds of dollars just for one visit. On top of that, pets also need food, a wee wee pad for a dog, a litter box with litter for a cat, toys, and treats. Besides having to spend hundreds of dollars on them, they provide a great companion and are almost always there when you need to talk to someone. For the past six years, I have been the proud owner of my purebred Bengal cat named Spock. Although he's only seven years and four months old, he's taught me so much. Here's a few of the things that he has taught me.

It's fun to see all of the selfies on social media, they are everywhere. I see pictures with pouty lips, duck lips and pucker lips. I see smokey eyes, huge fake lashes and nicely done nose jobs, boob jobs and butt lifts. Women working out in spandex, tiny tops and flip flops. I see tight abs and firm butts, manicured nails and toes, up dos and flowing hair. "Wow", I think to myself," I could apply tons of make-up, spend an hour on my hair, pose all day and not look like that. Maybe I need a longer stick!"

Ancient Roman Kings: 7 Leaders of Early Rome

The names and dates of the reigns of the first four kings, as well as the alternation of Sabin and Latin names, are more legendary than historical. The last three kings, of Etruscan origin, have an existence which seems less uncertain.

It is evident that all this is only a legend although archeology shows us little by little that these kings if they did not exist as the ancient history, describes them, have at least in the very Outlines were real as chief of a shepherd’s tribe. The period when kings ruled Rome could estimate at 245 years.
