An Overthinker’s Letter To Their Lover

You take certain ordinary things and make them extraordinary.

An Overthinker’s Letter To Their Lover
Wallpaper Abyss

Dear Lover,

My thoughts spin continuously throughout my mind, wondering if I am good enough, strong enough, attractive enough. I create scenarios in my head that actually aren’t even there. I freak out randomly about something you said 14 days ago, then I try to analyze why you said it. I may be difficult to deal with and frustrating as hell, but when I love, I love hard.

You take my world and turn it upside down, challenging me to believe that for once, someone might actually be worth my time, worth sticking around for. You ground me and make me feel calmer and I have no clue how you do it the way you do. You love me, and when you show that love, I feel secure in a way I have never felt with anyone else.

I am so hell bent on believing the worst of every situation because in my mind it is better to be prepared for the worst than to be let down when the best does not happen. I look at things emotionally rather than logically. I am driven by my heart because my head has let me down way too often.

You take certain ordinary things and make them extraordinary to me. Every move you make and word you say, I remember. When I say I love you, I mean I am infatuated. I am in love with you as a whole. You are who I want by my side until you can’t be anymore. I love everything about you and I accept your flaws because I know for a fact that you accept mine.

I get moody and when I do, it can happen at any given second, but you put up with it and love me for who I am. But even with all of my complicated ways, you show me that I can be myself freely, and that is something that very few people have done. I love you and I can’t thank you enough for loving me the way you do.

Xoxo,

An Overthinker

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.
