An Open Letter To Anyone In Need Of Inspiration
coastalinsight

To anyone whom feels they are not important, not wanted, invisible to the world, or are just struggling in some way. You may not notice it, but someone out there notices you. They deeply care about you but simply do not have the words to express themselves with. This letter is for you to read. It is from those who silently care.

You are not useless. You are wanted. You are appreciated. You have people whom care about you. You are noticed. You are not invisible. You have a life worth living. There is nothing in the way of your sunbeam to shine. It shines, and it is noticed. You are unlike other people, and that is perfectly okay. Every person on this earth is perfectly imperfect. Each individual is unique. Each individual makes mistakes. Not everything is your fault. Things happen that we cannot always control.

Do not put yourself down just because someone said something mean, rude, or hurtful, or because an event in your life suddenly occurred to make you feel that way. Do not let this change who you are, because you are wonderful.

There is good in you that people see. Your attitude an actions say it all. The look on your face tells it all. You are a book that the silent watchers read. They know that something is bothering you deep inside, but are too afraid to ask you if there is any way they can help, or even simply say that they are there for you if you feel you need them. Most of the time, the silent watcher is one who is shy, or simply does not speak that often. These people are the ones who will always be there for you no matter what, because the chances are they are the ones who are seen by themselves. The people whom you hang with on a daily basis may be your friends now, but later on in life they won't be.

The quite people are the best observers. They may even know you better than you know yourself and could give you some great advice for whatever you are struggling with. They see what is going on around you that you may not be able to see. They are like the paint on your masterpiece. Without the paint, there is no image. The paint makes up the image, just like the artists sees it before it is compete. The silent ones are the artists. They could see the differences in the situations from miles away that you may not be able to notice because you are in the painting. You cannot physically see their image because you are the image they are looking at. They see the flaws they feel like they could help you with. Let them help you in any way they can. Who knows, you may gain a friend for life. A friend that will not ever leave your side no matter what.

The initial meaning behind this letter is to not give up, and look toward the hidden light. Don't you ever give up, because that light is waiting for you. However, that light can only shine if you let it. It will not be seen on its own. You have to be willing to find the light hidden in the darkness to get out of what seems like an endless tunnel.

You are wanted. You are important. You are not invisible. You are noticed. You are useful. People notice you and want to know you. They want to help you. Please open your eyes and find these people. They will change your life.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
