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.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
