To The Boy Who Decided I Wasn't Enough

I loved you, until you made me doubt my worth.

I start this out by insulting you because of the way you insulted me by leaving our relationship with no explanation. One day we were chatting on the phone, happy as ever, and the next I hear nothing from you. For weeks. I saw you reading my messages and ignoring my calls. For weeks I couldn't figure out what I had done wrong and I made myself sick at night crying over you.

I was so convinced that I messed up. Maybe I sent too many messages. Maybe I told you some stuff too soon. Or maybe you were a coward who couldn't commit for whatever stupid reasons. Maybe you were intimidated because unlike your past girlfriends, I cared about you. I called to make sure you made it home safely and I thought about you every time I heard that song that you love.

I told you stuff about me that I'd never told anyone. I shared my fears and hopes and dreams with you, and in return you shared those things with me. I only knew you for a short time, but I really thought you were going to be someone special. I dreamed of us having a life together. You were good to me. You loved me for my flaws and my perfections. You made me strive to be a better person. Maybe that was because I thought I had to change myself for you.

I told myself I had to be more mature. I had to dress different and look perfect every time I saw you. I had to act the way you wanted me to, the way I thought you'd like. I told my family and friends about you, ecstatic, on the thought that you were the one. Even now the thought still lingers. You could come back with a false explanation for your behavior and I would accept it. I would believe any lie you told me because I love you. I would willing take you back because I miss you that much.

You made me feel like I wasn't enough and I will never forgive you for it. You made me doubt my worth. I'm past tears now though and I've moved on to being angry. It will take time to get over you but every day I am coming back to the girl I was before you decided I wasn't enough.

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.
