An Open Letter To My Loved One In Heaven

You'll forever remain my guardian angel.

An Open Letter To My Loved One In Heaven
Dominic Kamp

My angel,

First off, I just want to say how much I miss you. I think about you every single day. It hasn't been long since you left us, but it still feels like it was just yesterday I heard the news that you were gone, and the tears have not stopped coming. We weren't ready to say goodbye, and life hasn't been the same since.

We all can't help but wonder why you were taken from us so soon? You had so many plans for your future, but obviously God's plan for you was much bigger. Not too long ago you were here, smiling and laughing, and talking smack about Donald Trump, and it's hard to accept the fact that you won't be there anymore when I walk into your house. I hope heaven is beautiful, and I hope your heart is full of love and your belly is full of wine, because that's just what you would have wanted. I may have lost someone I loved, but I also gained the most beautiful guardian angel heaven has ever seen.

I promise I'll always do what I can to make you proud. I'll finish college, and I'll start my own family, and I'll tell them all about you, and what an incredible person you were. You lived a full and happy life, and I find joy through my tears knowing that. You wouldn't want us to be sad. You'd want us to mourn our loss, and continue our lives with you always in our hearts. We'll see each other again one day, and until then our family will continue to share the memories we created with you over so many years. This isn't a goodbye, but a "see you later." So until we meet again, just know that I love you, and I'll always keep you with me.

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.
