Thank You My Wonderful Parents

An appreciation letter to my parents.

Thank You My Wonderful Parents
Lana Kaczmarek

Dear Wonderful Parents,

First off, I want to tell you how much I love you. I appreciate all you do for me! I want to thank you for all that you have sacrificed to give me the best possible future. I know that I do not always show how much I love and care about both of you, but please know that I do. You both have helped shape me into the best version of myself.

I remember as a child never wanting to leave home. I remember wanting to live at home forever instead of facing what was ahead of me. You guys are my role models. You make me be the person I aspire to be. You always push me to do my best, even when I think I have given it my all.

Mommy:

Thank you for always thinking of me. I know we have definitely had our shares of ups and downs, but you never gave up on me. You encouraged not to let others knock me down and to stand up for what I believe in. You also taught me what it means to be selfless and to truly care for others. Thank you for being my personal nurse when I am sick. When I was sick over finals, all I wanted to was to come home and have you take care of me. You brighten my day even when I do not always show it. You help me make life worth living. Thank you for loving me unconditionally and being my female role model!

Daddy:

Thank you for always putting a smile on my face, even when I am mad at you. You never fail to make me laugh! I love listening to your quirky jokes. They always brighten up my day. Thank you for inspiring me to do my best in all I do. To be honest, your approval helps keep me motivated to go above in beyond in all my work. This has paid off in many areas of my life. You are an amazing person. Your handwork and dedication with your job shows that hard work is worth it in the end. I will always be your little girl (sorry, not sorry, Maria) no matter how old I get. You are someone who I look up to and appreciate all you do for me. You are my male role model always looking out for his family.

You both are my best friends. You both support me in all that I do and have given me all that I have ever hoped and dreamed for. Words can are not enough to show the amount of gratitude I have towards you. I love you both! Thank you for being on my side. I know at times we do not always seem to understand each other, but that is OK. We have been able to grow and overcome anything. You both have taught me so much on how to be the best version of myself. I cannot thank you enough for showing me the grace of God and the power of prayer. Faith has helped me grow closer to you both. I love like crazy!

Love,

Your Favorite Child

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.

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.
