It's So Important To Appreciate "Your Person"
Caroline Cook

Having that one person you almost have an unspoken connection with is something special. That person who knows exactly what to do when you're upset. The person who can make you laugh no matter the circumstance. Reading this I bet you're already thinking of that person. Your Person.

Your person can literally be anyone. Parent, sibling, boyfriend/girlfriend, husband/wife, best friend, cousin, aunt/uncle, grandparents, anyone. You may also have more than just one person and that's okay. Having someone who understands you better than others and being able to open up to this person about anything is not just found in all of your friends. It is found in a special person.

It is so important to have a person like this in your life.

A lot of people say they can get through life on their own and maybe that's true, but for most of us, we need that comfort.

We need that other half to share our emotions with.

We need someone who we connect with on a deeper level.

And that person needs us.

It is almost an indescribable relationship. Your person can challenge you when they think you can do better, motivate you when they know you're doubting yourself, pick you up when they see you are crumbling down, talk to you when they know you need someone, and be that person who never leaves your side.

Your person is the one who can have the best day in the world but when they hear how bad your day was, all they do is listen and not say a word about themselves. Your person listens and truly cares about you and vice versa.

Your person is the one you want to spend not only the good times with but the bad as well. They are the first person you call when you get big news. That person you know if you argue with, you can come back and they will have their arms open wide to welcome you back in with nothing but love.

You need them more than you know. They help you get through everyday life and are basically family if not already. This person is yours and will always be yours.

Tell them you love them and make sure they know how appreciated they are. Because if you have a person... you are one of the lucky ones. You have someone who is forever.

Find your person and be that person.

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
