A Letter To The Fighter

It’s a fight or flight world and you would rather fight like hell.

Dreamer, believer, wanderer, fighter; these are all words that describe you. You are intricate, complicated, and beautiful. You have been broken, more than once. Every tear you’ve shed has filled a cup so full that one day it will overflow with the most deserving Joy that one could hope for.

You feel it all; the pain and the happiness and you welcome each feeling with open arms. You would rather feel it all than nothing.

You’re faith could move mountains, boldly working towards the faithful believer God has designed you to be, a leader that might change the world. Even if you only touch one other soul in your lifetime.

You are a fighter, don’t take that lightly. In a world where it is easier to walk away, you choose the road less travelled and it is that way for a reason.

“And though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil, for though art with me”

You are not alone in your fight, you have the ultimate victor leading you in a way that no other could.

When you are broken down, beaten, losing every battle that you thought you would surely come out of unmarked stand up and keep fighting.

The question of whether or not to surrender may cross your mind occasionally. Is this fight worth it? Is this pain going to become joy? Can I pull myself together long enough to fight another day, because I am so tired.

Stand up.

Nothing that is worth something will come easy.

You are a treasure, not everyone can say they fought with everything in them, they gave it everything they had. You left it all on the table, be proud.

You are not stupid nor are you naive. When going to battle you are fully aware of every “I told you so” that might come your way, on that day you remember that the battle is your own and no one else’s. When you feel the need to explain yourself, don’t, your reasons are your own.

So on the day you question why you would rather fight, remember what you’re fighting for. Remember that it is worth it, that your fighting soul is one that requires a strength that is more than admired.

You’re fighting soul is perfectly imperfect, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
