The Fear Of Losing Someone

Please never leave.

The Fear Of Losing Someone

Everything could be good. Everything could actually be great.

We could be hanging out. We could be texting each other all day and all night. We could be partying together, planning trips together, or even practically living with each other.

But no matter how good it might be going, there will alway be that one part of me that will be in fear. I will always live with the fear of you leaving, no matter how good everything might be going. No matter how much you might promise me you'll never leave, there will always be those deep roots in my mind that will tell me not to believe the words that you speak.

It's happened in the past. It still happens. Why won't it happen now?

There are so many reasons why I've lost people. Distance. Loss of contact. Fighting. The list goes on...

But the worst ones are the ones that just simply drift away. No cause, no root of the problem... they just seem to disappear.

And that possibility never leaves my mind. I'll always think about it. Even when we are out together having the time of our lives, there will always be that dark part of my mind that tells me that this isn't forever. That this might be fun, but it's temporary, and that one day you'll move on and find someone who can have even more fun with you, leaving me in the tracks of our friendship, alone and confused.

So yes, I do value my friends. Yes, I do appreciate and love every single moment that I spend with them. But there will always be that part of me that will play devil's advocate. There will always be that part of me that tells me that this happiness, this fun, and this joy isn't forever.

There is that part of my mind that tells me that all good things eventually come crashing down.

But there is also a part of me that hopes I'm wrong.

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.
