A Thank You Letter To The Boy Who Saved My Life
Pintrest

In November of 2014, things had gotten really bad for me- I felt as if my world was spiraling downward in front of my own eyes. I asked myself every every day, “when will things get better?” To my very unexpected surprise, the answer was extremely soon. In January of 2015, you walked by me in the smalltown gas station and bought a drink like you always did. But this time, it was different. I stared through the glass window as you started your black Mustang GT (which was in flawless condition, might I add), turned right out of the parking lot, and drove away.

We hung out once, and we hit it off immediately. I found myself trying to find even the most ridiculous reason to send you a text message because face it- I could not get enough of you. Everything you said was intersting, every joke you told me was hilarious, and every compliment you gave me was extremely sweet. I was falling hard for you.

Let’s fastforward to July 9, 2015. At around 2:00 AM you asked me to be yours, and I said yes. I have never been so sure of anything else in my entire lifetime. I’m very indecisive, and you know that. I can barely keep my furniture arranged the same way for as little as a month. When it comes to you, though, I want everything to stay the way it is- everything is absolutely perfect.

Each and every day, I wake up next to you and I think to myself, “how on Earth was I lucky enough to find him?” The answer is very, very lucky. You’ve seen me at my worst, and still, you’ve never left me.

Sometimes, we fight. Sometimes, we get mad at each other. But at the end of the day, I need you to know just how much I love you. For every bad time, there are ten amazing times. You always know how to make me smile even when I don’t feel like it. You’ve brought out the best in me and you’ve always taken care of me. I don’t think you’ll ever understand this, but to me, you’re absolute perfection.

I need you to know just how thankful I am for you. You’ve always taken me for who I am, and you love me more and more every single day. Not a single thing you do for me goes unnoticed. From all of the times you’ve picked me up when I was breaking down, taking care of me when I’m sick, and spoiling me like a princess, I know that I want this for the rest of my life. You’ve always said that in the end, it’s always going to me us. We’ve talked about our future together and every single time, I become even more excited. You’re everything I could have ever hoped for, and you continue to amaze me every day. I love you more than you know.

So I guess what I want to say is thank you. Thank you for always being there, thank you for going above and beyond for me in every situation, and thank you for taking my sadness away when I felt so hopeless. I need you to know that when you’re feeling sad or lonely, you can always come to me. I’ve been here for you for this long, and I can promise you that I always will be. When you smile, I smile. When you cry, I cry. I feel whatever you feel because without you, I’m only a bunch of loose pieces. You make me whole; you complete me. I could write to you about everything you do that I’m thankful for, but theres one thank you that sums it all up: thank you for saving my life.

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.
