"Anyway, I can convince you and God to let me stay for a bit, it has been too long without you"

Let's be honest, if someone told you could could visit Heaven your response without a doubt be a yes. We all have at least one person we'd want to see. If you don't you haven't experienced loss of a loved one. Losing a loved ones has changed me in so many ways I can't express the feel. I have lost so many people dear to my heart I can't keep count anymore.

I know without a doubt the people I would meet. My grandpa's that I never got the chance to meet. I'm tired of hearing the stories and memories I would've loved to experience with them. It's draining to hear relatives talk about them and you have to pretend you know exactly what they're talking about.

I know I'd love to visit my aunt that passed at childbirth, Karen. My dad's sister, nobody got the chance to formally meet her. I know if I had the chance I would tell her all about the goofy things my dad does, or remind her of how good of a cook he is. Maybe mention that his name is so well known in our opportunity, everyone that has met him absolutely loves him and gave he gave them a positive outlook on life.

Seeing my Busha one last time would be the dream, because she has been in my dreams for last month in a half. Relatives always tell me, I look like her. To be honest, I have no recollection of her, just memories that people have told me. One thing that will always stand out because she called me "Shrimpy" not because I'm obsessed with Shrimp, because her and I were the shortest. With her at 5'1 and myself at 5'5 now. I can see why she called me Shrimpy. I just want to hug her and tell her I love you since I never got the chance to say goodbye, because it was so sudden.

Maybe he could've been a doctor, symphony director, maybe an astronaut but I have be content that he's not in pain anymore. Alex, was a kind hearted soul that never took anything for granted. If someone needed anything he'd be there for you in a heartbeat if he wasn't at a music lessons. I reconnected my bond with him in eighth grade as we're getting ready to be incoming freshmen. Blue and green aren't just my favorite colors anymore they're in remembrance of Alex. Donate Life means, donating your organ, like the person who saved Alex until he passed 2 years ago. Alex and I would tell you to consider becoming an Organ Donor.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.
