To My Mother From An Aborted Baby

I'm mad, but I want you to know I love you either way.

Dear Mom,

Can I even call you that ? What did I do to you? What did I do to dad? What if I wanted to be a part of the world? What if I wanted to make something of myself? Become a celebrity or a big wig business person?

You took all that away from me. You took it all away from me because you and dad chose to have sex and make me. I know I was an accident, but I did not do anything to deserve what you have done.

I am in Heaven now. I am loved here, but I rather be down there with you and dad and the rest of my family. Do you think you will ever regret this? Then what? You have to live the rest of your life with the decision you made and you cannot take it back.

I was so warm and comfortable in your belly. I didn't want to leave it yet. I mean I was too young to be a part of the world, but after a few months I would have been big enough and healthy enough to be held in your arms. All I wanted to do was feel your skin and smell you.

I really didn't want to die. I wanted to be your special child. I wanted to be your everything. I am sad you were sad. I felt you crying when you went to the doctor. I did not know why you were crying at the time.

You were crying, but I was dealing with the most pain of all. I had physical pain because this weird thing came in and got me and put me in Heaven and I had mental pain because my mommy and daddy did not want me.

I wrote this letter because I just don't understand how you did this to such an innocent soul? You made the adult decisions you did and you and dad knew the consequences, but you did it anyway.

I hope I am in your mind forever. I hope that you cry about me every once In awhile. I hope you think how I would have changed your life. I am mad, but I want you to know I love you either way.

Love,

Your unborn baby

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

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.
