An Open Letter To All My Exes

A short note to those who I no longer talk to.

I'm not going to lie. I did like you, I might've even loved you. Obviously, enough to waste my valuable time on someone like you. However, I have since realized that the way you "make me feel" is not good enough anyway. Yes, you "loving me" felt like I was walking on a cloud. Not good enough to continue living the way I was. Your words faded and so did you. And now there is just me.

Making it work.

I never needed you.

I wanted you. That is crucial. I. WANTED. YOU.

I stopped wanting you and you lost value. I lost nothing.

Good luck in life. One day you'll look back and realize you were wrong.

And I am worth way more than you could've ever imagined.

Alright, now that my rant is over... I honestly do want life to treat you well. I want you to understand that things happen for a reason and that just because you feel a certain way doesn't mean everyone else feels the same. No matter how involved we were; even if we only knew each other for a short time, breaking up with you took something out of me. I never wanted to make you hurt, that has never been the intention. I made the decisions I made based on what I thought and still think is best for both of us. Obviously, we don't see eye to eye on that subject.

However, disagreements are a part of life and they help us grow and make something out of the time we are given. I hope that one day we will once again be able to talk to each other without old feelings and possible pent up anger getting in the way. Life goes on. Even if you hurt me immensely, I forgive you and I want someone to come into your life and make you realize the beauty in love and relationships. I hope that you learn from your hurt and your mistakes and become better and happier in the end.


Light and Love,

Ky

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.
