An Open Letter To My Ex-Girlfriend.

To my ex-girlfriend,

I don't regret meeting you even though that's the last thing I told you. I still care and I have come to realize I will always care about you.

When we first met I said "I fell in love with your dead eyes." Its because those eyes lead to a inner void which I myself had. Thats the thing about relationships most people fall in love because of the good qualities in one another I feel that we fell in love because we both shared the void that was so similar. I knew how you felt because I also felt the same way and it was nice to find someone like me who was broken. As time went on it became clear that our voids was causing issues between us, my insecurities, emotional abuse, and controlling took effect on me. While your disconnection to the world and your emotions isolated yourself from everything and lead you to cheat. I can see why we had to break up and I don't regret the relationship we had. I do regret the way it ended on both sides, allowing our voids to hurt each other the way we did. 

I learned a lot from you and meeting you changed the course of my life forever. I always wanted to end our relationship with "love and respect" and I tried to show that to you but "Dr. Jekell" always came out to rear his ugly head to stop that. This is the way it had to be though for me to realize that my void does not define me. That I can change and evolve past my demons that haunted me while I was with you, that I can get mine and show myself and everyone my potential, the potential you saw in me. I want to get rid of this void and make a true genuine connection with someone based on love and understanding not obsession or possession.

I hope you learned a lot from me as well. To let go of the expectations around you and to be in the moment of life to find yourself. To be honest with yourself and others around you even though there might be consequences in your actions but you face them with integrity and resoluteness because it came from YOU the person who you are trying to find not hide. That to love anyone or seek love must come from yourself first before you can find it.  To be more empathetic to your family as they are the strongest support system you have. Whatever you learned from me even I hope it benefited you in some way.

Our love much like ourselves was flawed but even just like ourselves our flaws don't define us. In the midst of our flaws our love shined through the void even if it was only for a few days or weeks until we were wrapped up back into our void's. I wont let my void ever win again as much as its apart of me I will beat it and I hope you do the same. Thank you for everything... pudge.

With love,

Your Crazy EX-Boyfriend

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.
