A Loved One In Heaven

Watch Over Us

A Loved One In Heaven

Hey, everyone! I was planning on writing a different article this week, but the past couple days have been a little rough. While living on campus, I am surrounded by classes, homework, and work. My family understands that I do not have much free time, so it is hard to find time to talk to them. On Thursday, I found out that one of my great uncles had passed away.

I have a hard time when it comes to dealing with my emotions. Losing a loved one makes it even worse for me. Understanding that I have a hard time with my schedule and how hard I have to work, it tore me apart to notice that I will be unable to make it to the funeral due to my most difficult classes being on that day.

So, I was thinking about this.

Heaven Watching Us:


To The Angels In Heaven,

Take care of our loved ones as the venture your way.

Watch over them as they have watched over us.

Shower them with love and happiness as they remember the good days they had in life.

Give them peace for many have struggled in life.

Teach them your ways as they become angels over their family.


To The Loved One In Heaven,

You left before we had time to properly say goodbye.

Tears shed down our cheeks as we whisper our love to you.

This horrendous pain may be forever or may be a few days,

Yet we will continue on with life until it is our time to join you.

While we wait, become our guardian angels and watch over us with a smile on your face.


To The Loved One Who Is Now a Guardian Angel,

Watch over us as we discover the simple joys in life that you found during your time.

Smile down on us when we find love and happiness.

Spread your mystical light before us when we are lost,

And never leave our sides.

Let us feel your presence and love to let us know that we are never alone.

Wait for the day to rejoice when we are by your side again.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
