Just A Reminder

No one is you and that is your superpower.

I want for all of us in this world to truly live each day and truly love each day. This world has so much to offer us, day in and day out, no matter where you are or who you are. I want you to make this day yours. I want you to make this life yours. I want you to feel loved, and to know love from the most important person in the world, yourself. I want you to know that you are perfect, just as you are. You are going to be okay, everything is going to be okay.

You don’t have to try so hard to meet “standards” or to prove who you are. You just have to be. I want you to follow your heart and do what you want. I want you to listen to yourself. I want you to push past your limiting thoughts and your fears. I want you to be confident in who you are. You don’t need to look a certain way, or eat a certain way, or act a certain way. You don’t have to agree with everyone. You don’t have to disagree with everyone. You can be whatever you want to be. You get to create it.

I want you to dream big and live big. I want you to find the balance between pushing yourself and being compassionate with yourself without forgetting to enjoy it all. It doesn’t matter what your circumstances are, who you are, where you are, or what is happening in your life. You get to choose your thoughts. You get to choose your actions. You get to choose who you are for yourself and who you are for the world.

I believe that we are all just figuring it out the best we can. Be who you are. Love who you are. Live your life. Love your life. Do you.

We are all human. We spill things on our shirt. We get pimples here and there. We make mistakes. We say the wrong things or weird things and everyone is so worried about what the person sitting next to them thinks, even though they will probably never see them again.

Why stress? Do you. Be you. Be happy. You have to learn to love yourself enough to not tolerate disrespect, disloyalty, and wishy washy feelings. Surround yourself with people who value who you are as a person. If a person doesn't value you, move on. You are not obligated to hold down any person who constantly holds you back. That isn't loyalty, that's stupidity. When you seek fulfillment in others you end up lost when they leave. It's important that you know yourself before getting involved with someone else.

Remember that you were created in God's image, you were designed to be different from everyone else. Do not compare yourself to anyone.

You're beautiful. You're one of a kind.

No one is you and that is your superpower.

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.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

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.
