Lesson Learned

An open thank you letter to the guys wasting girls' time.

Lesson Learned
whisper

Thank you, for the pain is still there

Thinking back to when I thought I was in love

You weren't

And I swear

I thought we had something

We didn't

I thought it was love

It wasn't

I thought oh we would get married one day

That was nothing

I had planned everything

You were too focused on yourself

Let me put it straight forward

Thank you for helping me realize This was a game

Not the real thing

You did not deserve me

You said I was stupid, too high maintenance, spoiled and immature

But look back on who you were

Now tell me who was immature

Thank you for helping me realize that no one has ever torn me down as bad as you and your friends

Truly you were not the best for me

I wasn't the best for you

But some day I will mean the world to the right person

The person who pursues me, puts his all into the relationship and cares for me over himself

Thank you for helping me realize my worth

You said I was no princess

But I'll tell you this my daddy owns this world

He says I am his

Unless you know this to be true you were never meant to have my heart in the first place

I am a princess

God's princess

Men are put on this earth to treat women as though they are precious

Not relentless

To have my heart you must have my father's first

And that you never had

You said you believed but did your actions show it

Thank you for helping me realize I deserve so much more

I am a child of God, a princess, and made in his image

He loves me and unless you are pushing a woman to the Lord and to eventually make her your wife don't waste her time

Do her a favor and let her go

If your intentions aren't right

For she is more precious than silver or gold

She is not easy to understand, easy to handle, or easy to hold

But she is worth it through it all

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
