Trust Me, You'll Win

Bullies, are insecure. You'll win in the end.

Trust Me, You'll Win
Colorado State

People who don’t suffer with anxiety and or depression, they mean well when they say don’t let it bother you. Because that’s what they wish you could do. They wish it was that easy for you. I still think my parents believe saying that to me every day will make me just get better, that nothing will bother me. I have been in a mental unit, in a mental institution, and undergoing therapy since January. I have literally worked my ass off to get myself to the point I am at. I work, go to school, have a social life, and deal with my two diseases all day, every day.

People who have lived privileged lives, they have an entirely different world view. I am not saying they don’t have to deal with stress and problems. They just don’t understand not everyone grew up the way they did. And when they see people who have to work their asses off to get to the point they are, the find them weak. Basically, I’m an easy target.

But, how messed up is that? How people need to belittle, harass, and bully people to make themselves feel better about themselves? It is the world we live in. Look at Donald Trump, he belittles and makes fun of his opponents, so he can look better. Since when does the perspective leader of your country do the same thing that middle schooler's do? It makes me so sad knowing that my whole life, I will be the person people like Donald Trump are making fun of, no matter how much I work and how much i succeed.

So in conclusion, I am just going to keep going to school on my full ride scholarship. I’m going to keep being a government employee at the age of 22. And I am sure as HELL going to show everyone who belittled me, harassed me, bullied me, I am going to show them that if they spent have the time they wasted on me on furthering their lives, they would be where I am. After all, if people aren't talking about you, you aren't doing something right!

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.
