An Open Letter To Everyone To STOP Opening Letters

There is no need for open letters if there is no closure that comes with it.

Hello everyone!! I have seen many of you open letters here on Odyssey. And while that is all fine and dandy, let me just say that, I am getting tired of seeing these open letters.

If you have something to say, just say it!!!!

Do not have any regrets, remorse or be reluctant to say how you freaking feel!!! Let your free thoughts flow wherever they go....unless you are Kanye West!!! But do not be marred or deterred by what others may think about you.

I know all of us, including me have situations, circumstances and feelings to unpack, delayer and unfold, but do it with transparency, and not with hesitation. I mean I do not want any of you to blow your breath before writing an article. Get that ish off of your chest.

I mean are you really, opening your letter to your mom, your brother, or that intruder? Or are you really opening up for me? To see your life experiences? To see where you are coming from? To offer sympathy and empathy for your teeth-cringing story?

I can never tell unless there is no ambiguity. But there is no need for open letters, if there is no closure that comes with it.

I am hoping that with the open letters I come across, they are heartfelt, inspiring, empowering, something that they have overcame, or miraculous.

No need to open letters, if you are not willing to close. It is like opening a can of worms that will become finicky.

As frustrating and annoying as it can be, being a girl is really awesome. We are beautiful inside and out. Not a lot of people may see that, but girls have a ton of amazing qualities.

We have unique flirting skills.

Us girls have a significant way to flirt with other people. Even when we say the most random or awkward things, we have a way of making everything sound cute and planned. It’s just a gift; we’re good like that.

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.
