My Wish For You

Never stop growing...

My Wish For You

A letter to myself,

I hope you become the best version of yourself. I hope you grow into the person you have always wanted to be. Our minds and bodies are constantly changing... and sometimes we get stuck. Change can be scary, but it can also be a wonderful thing. So keep going, chase your dreams.

As time goes on we grow apart from friends, get closer with others. As I grow older, I notice people around me changing more and more. Doing the things they love, traveling more, expressing themselves, and finding their happiness. One day I realized I was doing the same thing.

My best advice is to step out of your comfort zone. Try things you have always wanted to try, but maybe you were too scared. You can't live in a bubble forever not facing your fears. You could but what good would that do? Surround yourself with the people who make you the happiest and radiate positivity. The most important lesson I learned in 2016 was to leave the negative people in my life. Wow, can I say I am so much happier without them! When you find people who make you laugh, smile, and bring out the best in you... hold onto them!

Remember, everyone grows and changes at different rates and times in their lives... But don't let them hold you back. Keep growing! Keep becoming that star! Everyday you become wiser, even when life throws (what seems like) impossible tasks at you. But those tasks make you stronger.

Remember, you are an amazing person with goals and dreams. Never let someone take that away from you. Most of this probably sounds corny, but you are amazing.

I hope you grow more than you ever thought you could. I hope you learn, love, hurt, fail, succeed, find happiness and everything in between. I hope you let go of that one thing you think you can't let go of. I hope you grow as tall and bright as a sunflower. You're beautiful and can do anything you put your mind to.

xx

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.
