I’m Only 19 But I’ve Found The Person I’m Going To Settle Down With

And no, I'm not making a mistake or an impulse choice.

I’m Only 19 But I’ve Found The Person I’m Going To Settle Down With
Lauren Brocious

Yes, I’ve found the person I’m going to settle down with for the rest of my life.

Yes, I know I’m only nineteen and I’m young and have the world ahead of me.

Yes, I’m also aware that ½ of marriages end up in divorce.

And I’m also aware of the current state of the world and the financial responsibilities.

And yes, I know it’s going to be rough making ends meet sometimes.

I know we both will be in student debt trying to pay our rent.

And I know we both will be trying to find jobs.

But this is what WE want.

WE want to build a life together and grow with each other every day.

WE want to be next to the person that builds them up in situations that tear them down.

WE want to make a future for our own and be successful human beings.

WE want to be together because once you’ve felt this feeling, you’ll never let go.

And I know this won’t be always easy, but WE ARE determined.

WE ARE not like other couples are age, we don’t party, drink, or practice drugs.

WE ARE believers that society is forgetting what commitment is.

WE ARE best friends, business partners, sometimes worst critics, and each other’s half.

WE ARE both Christians and believe in God has a plan for us and loves us.

WE ARE only human and sometimes we make mistakes but this is not one.

WE ARE what each other has dreamed about finding and are stuck like glue.

WE ARE successful college students who invest time in their studies and future.

WE ARE both greek-affiliated and don’t care if friends go out and party.

WE ARE leaders in the community and want to help others succeed.

WE ARE only ourselves. We don’t try to live up to anyone’s standards but our own.

WE ARE different from others, we are ourselves and that what makes us unique.

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.
