An Open Letter To The Person I Miss Most

We all have that one person we would do anything to bring back.

An Open Letter To The Person I Miss Most
Aradia Bristol

To the person I miss most,

Every second, every minute, every hour, of every single day, I miss you. Something I'm doing, a conversation I'm having, an image that crosses my mind, everything reminds me of you. Some days are easier than others to not have you around. Some days I just want to crawl into a ball and cry. Just one more phone call, one more hug, one more "see ya later" is all I really need.

I miss your voice. I miss your questions. I miss your laugh. I miss your contagious smile. I miss your hugs and just being close to you. I miss your warmth. I miss having someone to make everything okay no matter where I was at and what was going on. I miss your jokes. I miss your endless stories about any situation. I miss your never ending life advice. I miss having you as my shoulder to lean on. I miss your massive, caring, loving heart. I miss you.

At first, things were OK. It hadn't really hit that you were gone. It hadn't really hit I wouldn't be able to drive to your house just to talk and walk around. It hadn't hit that Sunday dinners would have one less place setting. It hadn't hit that my baby cousins would never know your face. It hadn't really hit that pictures and memories were all that I had left. It hadn't hit that the last goodbye was really the last one. It hadn't hit that you were really gone.

And then it did, and when it came, it hit me like a rock. A piece of my life, my heart, my soul, a piece of me was buried in the ground the day you left this earth. My best friend, my person, my favorite person in the whole world gone, just like that. Never coming back.

If I had one wish to do anything, it would be to be able to make that trip to heaven to see you just one more time. I'd bring our family and everyone who loved you, just to see you smile, just to hear your laugh, just to know that we would all see you again someday and that then everything would be okay for just a little while longer.

I miss you more and more every day and I love you with all my heart. My biggest goal is to make you proud. You're still my biggest inspiration and I know you're still my biggest supporter. I will never be able to repay you for all the things you did to make everyday just a little bit easier. I hope everything is going well and just know that everyone down here misses and loves you more every single day that you are gone.

Love,

The girl that misses you more than anything

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.
