I Hope You Come Through

It has been so long since I last saw you.

I hope you come through.

I hope you decide to pay me a visit. I have not seen you in a long time, and it can be hard for me to last without hearing your voice. I hope I don't impose when I say I want to see you, I want you to be here.

I woke up at 3 A.M. this morning, and I looked around my room, even though it was pitch black. Why was I awake so early? Did you make an attempt?

You have not been in my dreams for a while now, and it has started to concern me. I do not want to lose sight of you, and it is scary because I think I may be forgetting the sound of your voice.

A real opportunity is coming, and I am living with an open mind. I hope you come through.

I do not want to get my hopes up. Sometimes this does not work, but I already know that my heart would break if you did not come talk to me; that is okay. I want to talk to you again, I need you.

I need to tell you about what I have been up to, even though you know already. You watch me every day, and I think of you daily. But I want to hear from you. What do you think? I need advice all the time, and I wish you were here to give it to me because sometimes I just need to hear it from you.

I hope you come through.

I wear your rings all the time; I do not ever take them off. Hopefully, that will help. You loved jewelry; necklaces, toe rings, earrings. It never ended with you because I continued your legacy of wearing them.

Some days, I wonder what it is like up there. Is it nice? Do they treat you well? Is there really an afterlife worth living? Are you happy? Do you miss us? Do you miss me?

I want to know how you are doing. I know you know that I can handle this and that you do not worry about me, but I still worry. Where do you think I get it from? Because this is coming up, I keep thinking about it way too often.

Is that bad?

I hope you come through.

I miss you more than words can say. It has been tough lately, but that does not stop me from achieving my goals. I hope you are proud of me, of us.

I hope to see you again. I hope to hear from you again. It is your choice whether you want to join in, but I know you will be with me in my heart.

I love you.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

Because who understands your bitterness better than April?

Indiana University - Purdue University Indianapolis

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.

Because who understands your bitterness better than April?

1. When you have to provide an "interesting fact" for your first day ice-breaker.

2. When your professor is babbling on and on in his lecture.

3. When you edit your friend's paper and they get an A.

5. When you finish taking the test and you're pretty sure you failed...

6. ...but then you get the test back and somehow passed.

8. And then you manage to stay awake in class the next day.

9. When you have to butter up your professor for an extra credit opportunity.

10. When you're assigned a group project.
