An Open Letter To The Girl Who Doesn't Think She's Worth It

You have been used and abused to the point that you feel completely useless. You are not worthy of love or affection. You are not worth the time and effort anyone would put into a relationship with you. You are not even worthy of the little bit of space you occupy on this earth. You feel completely and utterly worthless.

You are wrong.

You were put on this world for a reason. It was not a mistake that you are exactly where you are right now. You have been hurt and life has not been kind and you may feel shattered, but you are still worth it. You are worth letting someone love you. You are worthy of being happy and content with your life. You are worthy of the effort people put in to be around you.

Do not go looking for your worth in someone else. They don’t have the answers for you. They can’t make you feel whole again. They can’t give you a reason to keep going. It’s all on you. You have to find the reason to get out of bed each morning. You have to figure out why you keep going to work and school and through life’s everyday motions. You are worthy of a future. Of love. Of trust. Of happiness. Just remind yourself that you are you and that is all you need to be.

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
