An Open Letter To Women

The pursuit of dreams during and after Women's History Month.

Hey Readers!


When I write, I try to instill a sense of motivation to whoever finds it useful. There aren't guidelines to life, so we have to make them up ourselves as we go along.

During Women's History Month, I challenge women to do one thing you've hesitated with. It could be a hobby you've never taken up but showed interest in or a book you've never had the time to read. It can be a long-term or short-term goal, but I hope it adds a sense of positivity and peace to your life.

I know this sounds like a strange thing to write about this week, but too often, I see goals or moments get lost within time. These moments, then, become regrets. I, myself, am trying to remember the things that keep me happy and passionate so they don't become forgotten.

The determination within each one of us is essential to who we are, so keep this in mind when you feel you can't do something you've been wanting to do. If you feel you don't have the determination, I hope that any of my writings help. Sometimes, we need a reminder that fuels the dreamer within all of us. I hope that my words provide that for someone out there.

I understand that all of us as women come from different parts of the world. With this, brings different cultures, languages, and even daily routines. However, what I hope is that you do what brings you happiness. Happiness means many things, but as long as it brings restoration to your well-being and adds positivity, challenge yourself to do it.

Imagine five years from now if you've never attempted to take that trip you've wanted or applied for that job you've had your eye on. Imagine if you've wanted to whisk yourself away for a little while with the person you love or to sing that song you've practiced in your head over and over, but never got to do it.

I have never claimed to be an expert in life. But what I do understand is that whatever part of you lights up when you hear or see something you've held back from doing or accomplishing, please listen and do it. Time will not wait for you or me, so give all that you've got to that particular challenge for yourself. As I've said in the past: may all of your wildest dreams come true. Even after Women's History Month comes to a close.


With Deepest Sincerity,

Jessica

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.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
