An Open Letter To The Girl Who Has Not Found Her Way
http://m.favim.com/image/528965/

To the girl who hasn't found her way,

You know who you are. You're the girl who is behind on everything.

You don't know who you are or where you are going. You have plans, but you have not had the chance to see them through. You have dreams of places you want to see, things you want to try, people you want to meet, but you haven't found your way yet.

You're the girl who hasn't had the perfect life. You are full of insecurities, doubts, fears, but at the end of the day you are still confident, smart, and strong. You get down sometimes, but there is always something that will be there to pick you up.

You are the girl who hasn't had the perfect relationships. Maybe you haven't had any yet. The relationships are far from flawless. They may be nothing like you imagined, but you still see the good anyway.

You went to school for a specific thing, but you've already changed your mind. It doesn't mean that life is over, it just means you're changing your mind to get things right.

You've made mistakes. You have said things that you are not proud of. You have had your feelings hurt on multiple occasions. You have lost people that you want back in your life. You have wasted time on people. You have taken for granted what you had before it was gone.

All those things may seem terrible. It may seem as though everything was wrong.

Look over here. It's the bright side

Love yourself so that you can love others better. Live so others can live through you. Laugh a lot, cry very little. Smile even when it seems like the world doesn't want you to. Be kind to others because you never know what battle they are facing.

Make mistakes so you can learn from them.

You are you. As cliche as it sounds, no one can do it better. You're going to find your way even when it seems like you will not. Believe in yourself even when no one else will. Find your way no matter how long it takes.

You can do it. You just have to keep telling yourself.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
