Open Letter To The Person Who Does Not Believe In Me

I can do anything I have put my mind to, and I have shown you that.

Open Letter To The Person Who Does Not Believe In Me
Info Twister

To the person (or possibly people) who do not believe in me,

I was hoping to show you that I can do anything I put my mind to. I have made it this far on my own, right? Well, I guess you cannot be pleased too easily. Or think my dreams might just be too big and instead of shooting for the stars, I will fall flat on my butt. That is where you are most definitely wrong. I know my dreams are big, but I have a big heart to go along with that dream. My heart and passion for what I want to do will be my driving force to make it, maybe even surpass my dreams and do something even bigger. So when I get there, I will try to not say I told you so. But I probably will not be able to not say it if we are being honest with ourselves. I do not think you realized how much impact you have had on me, and do not take it as a compliment before I explain. I would sit and wonder why you did not believe in me. I wondered if I was not good enough for you, would I be good enough for anyone else? Should I actually change my goals and dreams to something more moderately sized instead of so big? That is when I realized that I should not adjust my life to fit your thoughts. I can do whatever I want to and you cannot stop me, so you can just sit your negative self down and watch me get to where I want to be. I should not be so upset about what a person like you says to me when you do not even have any goals and dreams for yourself in the long run. My motivation intimidates you which makes you feel bad and gives you the need to make me feel insecure, but not anymore my friend. Not anymore. Sit back, get comfortable, and watch me get to where I want to be.

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.
