It Seems Just Like Yesterday

Life has to end. Love doesn't.

It Seems Just Like Yesterday

Lost love is still love. It just takes a different form, that's all. You can't hold their hand or tousle their hair, but when those senses weaken another one comes to life.

Words can't explain how much I miss you. How much I wish you were here. It was just yesterday that I saw you and you were saying goodbye. And I walked right out that door, not knowing that I would never see you again in this life. Everyday I see you in the pictures and I wonder how different life would be if you were here.

Memory. Memory becomes your partner.

I took a walk down memory lane today. And I saw you in the stars watching me. I cried today because the pain of missing you never goes away. I looked at all the keepsakes you gave me and held them tight. Because it was just yesterday that I remember opening up that present from you.

You hold it. You dance with it.

There's not a day goes by that I don't wish we could meet face to face again. That I could talk to you and tell you all that has happened in my life. I wish that life was simpler and that you were hear to help guide me through it. I wish you could tell me what to expect and help me fix all my problems like you once did. It was just yesterday that you held me in your arms after I came home crying because of a bad day.

Life has to end. Love doesn't.

I know that because you are gone, I am stronger. I know that if I could get through the loss of you, someone I loved more than anything, then I can get though any obstacle. Life ends and we begin to learn how to move on with the pain. No one can even begin to understand the feelings that someone has after a loved one has passed. But, there is hope. Hope that you are watching over me and protecting me. Hope that the memories will never fade away. Hope that I will once again see your smile. After all, it was just yesterday that you waved goodbye.

Romans 8:28- And we know that in all things, God works for the good of those who love him. Who have been called according to his purpose.

I might never know why you were taken from me that day. Why you had to leave before I was done needing you. But, God picked his very best flower from the garden so that you could be with Him and it would be selfish of me to want to take you away from that. It was just yesterday that I wished you were here.

Just know that you will forever be missed, until we meet again. Because it seems just like yesterday that I saw your face.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
