To my loving guardian angels,

While every moment that passes may seem like forever, your compassion and sweet nature are eternally embedded within my heart. I may not be able to hear your voice, but I am reminded of the years of constant joy and laughter on a daily basis. From shelling peas and sharing hilarious stories to teaching lessons that I will cherish for a lifetime, every moment was filled with happiness and bliss. In my hardest of times, I dwell on the good times that we shared and I am immediately brought back into a state of positivity and love.


To my hardworking guardian angels,

The work ethic that you instilled within me has helped me surpass anything I ever imagined. When I feel intimidated or afraid of the task ahead, I think back on the examples that were placed before me. The "you don't work, you don't eat" mindset was not always my favorite, but it has helped me to achieve goals that I had no idea I was capable of achieving. I am constantly reminded that I never have to be the smartest, fastest, or most respected individual in a room. All that matters is that I give the max amount of effort that I have on that given day and that in itself will always be enough.

To my guardian angels who never gave up,

While you may have lost the earthly battle, you have now found true victory and peace in God's arms. There are so many moments that I wish I could share with you. So many things that I wish I could say to you. Yet, I find comfort in knowing that you are in a place of relaxation, love, and tranquility. You fought a hellacious disease with every fiber of your being and put up a hell of a fight. I watched you go through agony and pain, while still maintaining a fun and loving spirit. Never once did you allow your circumstance to define you. Because of this, I was inspired to never allow a situation to control my attitude, as well as refusing to allow anything/anyone to get the best of me.

You may no longer be here physically, but your witty spirit full of compassion, kindness, and care will always remain. I will forever cherish the time shared and I look forward to seeing you again.

Love always,

Shady

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
