To the girl who isn't enough

A letter to the girl who thinks she isn't enough.

To the girl who isn't enough

To the girl who is never enough,

Let me start this out by saying a cliché, you are enough. No matter what anyone has done or told you, you will always be enough. God did not create us to be perfect. He created us to all be different yet equal.

You will always be enough to the ones who truly love and care for you. This includes your parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, friends and significant other. To these people, you are enough. You’re not the perfect daughter, sister, friend, or girlfriend. But honestly, who gives a damn if you’re trying your hardest and being true to yourself?

Onto how we look and how others see us. So what if you're not the perfect size two with the right assets. The way we look shouldn't be something we judge our self worth on. This "perfect" image that society has created for us is all wrong, because what might look beautiful and "perfect" to one person isn't what looks beautiful and "perfect" to another person. Being true to yourself and doing what makes you happy and healthy is what makes you enough.

You will always be enough for God and his love. There is nothing absolutely nothing that can take God’s love away from you. Pick up your bible, say a prayer, rejoice in this word that you are good enough. 1 Peter 2:9 says, “But you are not like that, for you are a chosen people. You are royal priests, a holy nation, God's very own possession. As a result, you can show others the goodness of God, for he called you out of the darkness into his wonderful light.” Let this verse lead you to know that you are a child of the King of kings and His to use to show the world His love. I cannot think of a more worthy and useful person in this world.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.
