Dear Person(s),

First off i just wanted to let you know I forgive you, no matter how much you shattered my heart. I am not mad or angry or sad I am relieved because of you I have dealt with many different obstacles in life. Some obstacles I shouldn't have dealt with when i was a child, or even now. Do I miss every single one you? Of course I do. You will all have a special place in my heart no matter how bad the situation was. Some people would probably not believe me or would like me to forgive all of you but I do because I have a big heart and I am that person who will be there for you even if you shattered my heart a million times.

Another thing I want to say to every single one of you is thank you. Thank you for opening my eyes and forcing me to see the other side of every situation. Thank you for helping me become stronger in every little thing I dealt with every little argument and every little fight. Because of all this you all have helped me become stronger and more dependent on myself and nobody else, you have let me break out of my shell and let me go to people for help instead of keeping it inside me before I blow up.

I have become a happier person now because I can finally take the past and put it behind me and look to the future. Thank you for letting me deal with these situations every single one of you has made me dealt with because even though I went through hell and back with all of you I know I have become a better person for myself and I am so grateful for that.

No matter what happens in the future I just want the best for all of you. I want all of you to be happy and I want you all to be successful. You will all have a place in my heart. Thank you again for making me the person I am today. I am the type of person now who is there for anyone, happy about the littlest things, and is always smiling because before you were lucky to see a smile on my face. So thank you.

For anyone who has dealt with any of this just know you can get through this no matter how bad or hard the situation is. You can get through all of the heartbreak. It is going to be hard at first but all you have to do is keep your head high and know all of your friends and family love you. There is hope and happiness believe me just give it some time.

Sincerely,
Me

11 Things Summer Nannies Can Relate To

As a college student, being a nanny over the summer is both enjoyable and challenging. Underneath the seemingly perfect trips to the pool or countless hours spent playing Monopoly are the obstacles that only nannies will understand. Trading in your valuable summer vacation in return for three months spent with a few children less than half your age may seem unappealing, but so many moments make it rewarding. For my fellow summer nannies out there, I know you can relate.

To The Girl Who Falls Too Fast, Never Be Ashamed Of How Hard You Love

Love hard, every day, and never be ashamed.

If it hurts now, it'll hurt again. Not because you're gullible or naive, only because you fall fast, hard, and you do it every time.

We fall each and every time with the complete and utter confidence that someone will be there to catch us. Now that person we SWORE we were never going to fall for has our hearts, and every time we see them our palms start sweating. The butterflies in our stomach start to soar and our hearts are entirely too close to bursting out of our chests.

Growing up I have always wanted to own a horse. My grandparents own a well known equestrian facility in Georgia, so I have been riding since I was born. A bond between a person and their horse is a bond so strong that it cannot be broken. Everywhere I went I wanted to be around horses, even forcing my family to go on trail rides during vacations. Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember has taught me great responsibility, as well as 14 things that all equestrians can relate to.

College is super hard. Between working, studying, and having a social life, it feels like a struggle to just keep afloat.

I understand. When you feel like your drowning and there's no way to stay afloat I understand that it feels like everyone else is doing just fine. I understand all the frustration, long nights in the library, and that feeling that you want to just throw in the towel. I understand that sometimes it's too hard to get out of bed because your brain is already filled with too much information to remember. I understand because I am also feeling pretty burnt out.

Some of the best advice I've ever received was from my social studies teacher in sophomore year of high school. He stated, "If you don't know it at midnight, you're not going to know it for the 8 a.m. exam, so get some sleep."

It's such a simple piece of advice, but it holds so much accuracy and it's something that the majority of college students need to hear and listen to. "All-nighters" are a commonality on college campuses in order to cram in studying for an exam that is typically the next day.
