A Open Letter To The Boy Who Broke My Heart

First off, I’ll start with saying thank you. Thank you for breaking my heart. Matter of fact, thank you for shattering my heart. I wouldn't of wanted to hand something so precious over to anyone else to destroy.

I grew very fond of you in a short period of time. I think it was those eyes, or maybe the way you spoke to me like I was the only girl in the world. All the days where I broke down and cried you sat there and cried with me, all the days where I smiled so brightly you smiled with me, we shared something special. Our first love.

As the years went on I noticed I was the one loving more, the one who put their all in to get not very much in return. I deserved better and always have. Your words were lies. Your hopes weren't the same hopes I had. Maybe you looked at me as just a girl you knew, but I looked at you like you were my gift from above.

I have no resentments about the time we spent together or all the effort I put into you. No, I don't hate you. I don't hate you for being the boy who caused me the suffering of a thousand bricks being dropped onto my chest. I don't hate you for not realizing what we had. I don't hate you at all. Matter of fact, I still love you. Funny thing is I don't have much to love you with considering you broke my heart into a million little pieces.

Love works in a funny way people say, not as funny as our love worked. It worked in a way others may not understand. It worked in a way where I felt as if I had everything, but in reality, I had nothing. I know deep in your heart apart of you did love me, or maybe even still loves me. But you were awful at showing it.

To this day I still am very fond of you. Fond of the person I've seen you become since our times together. I still talk to you almost everyday, it's almost like our time never ended. Like you never really broke my heart. But you did and because of it I am a stronger person. I look at myself and think of the girl laying in her bed under the covers crying her eyes out. Of the girl who wanted to end it all over a boy who was meant to be a lesson not a blessing. I look back at that girl and think "Wow, I will never be that girl again."

I know now that as my life goes on I will meet people who will use their words as a way to fool others. I know now that not everyone is as genuine as they seem. I know now that just because someone says something does not mean they will stick to their words. I know now that you were not what was best for me. I know now that I am worth more.

And all I have to say to you,

is thank you,

and good luck in all your future endeavors and I will always be there by your side when you need me.

Love always with my broken heart,

The girl you let go.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
