For Anyone Who Feels Alone In An Out-Of-Control World

No one said it would be easy
But it can be done.
In a world where just chaos and guns
Seem to shine in the news more than the morning sun
Blazing a trail of hurt and pain
Leading to more sadness and more disdain

We cry out; where are you God
Why did you leave me? Did you ever shed a tear?
But he's looking us in the eyes, and he says,
I'm right here.
Stop child, stop your tears.
I died for you, so cast away your fears.

No one said it would be easy
But it can be done.
You see God's love is as consistent as the morning sun will come.
Never skipping a day, never expressing regret,
Never complaining that some people tend to forget how unasked it is.
To light up the Earth. Day after day, and even when it goes away
And the moon and the stars take over the sky
'Cuz even on a cloudy day they still shine.
No- you can't see them, so it's easy to forget
But hold onto his promise.
It's not over, not yet.

But your heart beats, it races and it flies,
Out of your chest and into the sky
Filled with black holes ready to swallow
Your hopes and beliefs and all that follows
Slow down.
Take a breath.
As you rest the darkness begins to fester and caress all that you fear
But remember. He's looking us in the eyes, and he says,
I'm right here.

Do you see the stars in the sky? They're beautiful right?
I made them with the same hands I made your eyes.
Do you see the moon hanging perfectly tonight?
I made it with the same hands that created that bump on your nose you do not like.
But believe me, it's beautiful right?
Do you see this whole Earth?
Every detail precise one of my finest works,
The only thing that could compare is each stand of your individual hair,
And every curve and line I put on your body.
These hands do not make mistakes.
You forget that I'm perfect, and that you are fearfully and wonderfully made.

No one said it would be easy,
But it can be done.
So trust in me child, this battle can be won.
Hold fast to me, hold tight with care.
Let go and try to survive that's a dare.
I can make you invincible.
Nothing you touch, nothing thrown your way will be able to puncture
The armor I will wrap around you my dear.
I'm looking at you, and I'm telling you,
I'm right here.

Sorority Girls

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.

I'll admit it, I have a condition called RBF or, if you will, Resting Bitch Face.

Anna Kendrick, poor Kristen Stewart, the Queen of England are all life-long sufferers of RBF. Victoria Beckham even made a career out of it! And though it's usually used to describe women, some men are also afflicted. Kanye West is the best example of this.
