To The One I'm Still Not Over

There's a weak spot in my heart engraved with your name.

To The One I'm Still Not Over

I want to start this off by saying that I’ll always be down for you. If you were to call me tonight and ask me to drive twenty minutes or 12 hours just so we could be together, I would. There’s a weak spot in my heart engraved with your name. I’ll always be down for you because I never fully got over you. I convinced myself and my friends I was done, but when 2 a.m. hits and I’m all alone, you’re the only thing my mind runs to. I hate it, but I can’t keep denying it forever.

I’m sorry I wasn’t what you expected. I don’t know what you thought you were getting into, but I wish I could’ve been that. I’ve always told myself I’d never change for a guy, but from the beginning, I was willing to change for you. I’m still willing. When you care for someone so much, it doesn’t matter what you have to do to keep them happy – you’re going to do it. That’s how I am with you.

The moments I spent with you were some of my favorite moments of my life, ever. Your smile melts me and every time I’d see it I’d get so happy. When I’d hold your hand I felt so complete, like the other half of my soul was finally connected. I can’t even begin to describe to you what your kisses felt like. I was in heaven, and I was happy – happier than I’ve ever been.

When things ended between us, it got nasty quick. I tried so hard to fix whatever I believed I had done wrong for the sake of whatever we were. I blamed myself because that’s all I’ve ever known how to do, but looking back on it, I don’t know what I did wrong. I was myself. Was being myself not enough for you?

In the short time between getting to know you and you becoming someone I knew, you brought so much joy into my heart. Maybe it’s because the entire time I was just infatuated with the idea of you, and not a real person. Or maybe it’s because, for once, I almost had the relationship I’ve been craving my entire life. Either way, feeling something so deeply after such a short time is what causes the deepest of heartbreaks.

If you decide to come back into my life, it would make me so happy. I can’t even begin to describe the feelings that would run through my body just seeing you again. Just to spend time with you again and laugh at your jokes would be enough for me. But if you get word that I’m still hung up on you and it drives you in the other direction, I understand. There are so many unanswered questions between us, and those answers likely hold the reasons why you stopped speaking to me.

I want nothing more than for you to be happy, even if it’s with someone else. Seeing pictures of the two of you will leave me on my bedroom floor sobbing at first. She’ll be the luckiest girl in the world because she’ll be able to call you hers and kiss your soft lips each and every night. I’ll be jealous of her. I’ll wonder what she has that I didn’t. Is it just that she’s prettier, or is there something more you were looking for that you found in her? After awhile of heartbreak, I’ll wake up and realize that you are smiling again. Your smile is my favorite thing, and if I can’t be the reason you’re laughing, I just want to be able to see you smiling from afar.

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.
