To The One Crying At 2 A.M.

It's okay to cry.

I feel you. I feel your pain, your heartbreak, your sadness.

I feel your helplessness and your wondering on whether or not it's worth it to go on.

Let me first tell you that you do not deserve whatever is making you cry.

Whomever, or whatever hurt you is not because of you and you do not deserve it.

There is nothing you did that could justify whatever is bringing you so much pain.

It is not your fault. You do not deserve it.

I know it doesn't feel like it right now, but things will be okay.

I have to be honest and tell you that I don't know when things will get better — if things will get better.

But, I do know that they will be okay.

I'm still trying to determine whether or not things get better for myself so I will not feed you the line that everyone else does. I know you're tired of hearing it.

But I will tell you that you have gotten through 100% of your bad days until now and I'll tell you that you don't want to ruin that streak.

Everything may seem like it's crashing down right now, and it may seem hard and damn near impossible to continue on with this hurt or this heartache but you can and you will.

You will wake up tomorrow and things may still hurt, things may still be bad, but you are alive and that is amazing.

You should be proud of yourself right this very second for getting through all you've gotten through and you should know that even though things look rocky and foggy for the future, you will get through this too.

You will wake up tomorrow after a night you didn't think you would get through and you should be proud of that.

You should know that you're not alone in this, there are many people awake at the same time questioning the same things that you are and if it makes you feel any better, know that we are all going to get through our own troubles - together.

Whatever is making you cry right now, will be so little in comparison to the big picture of your life and all the good that will come of it.

I know you are hurting, and that is okay but you have to know that things will eventually be okay.

You will eventually be okay.

You are strong.

You are worth this life, and of love.

You did not do anything wrong nor do you deserve whatever is troubling you right now.

Things will be okay.

For all you know tomorrow could be the best day of your life, so cry it out now because eventually, you will be smiling again, even if it seems impossible right now.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
