To Those People Who Make You Feel You Aren't Good Enough

You are good enough. You are capable of success and achieving everything you dreamed of, even if others sometimes make you feel like you aren't.

Those who make you feel unworthy and like you are less than them don't deserve your friendship. Those who bring you down with hateful comments and negativity don't deserve to bask in your success with you. These people don't see your worth; but believe me it's there.

We've all been there. We've all fallen into hopeless despairs and felt like everything we do is wrong and that we just aren't good enough. We compare ourselves to others and their success. Why is this person so much smarter than me? Why is this person so much more outgoing?

We've all had moments of not fitting in and fearing we won't ever find happiness; but you will. Life is a journey full of things to learn, about the world and about you yourself. In time you will find those friends who make you feel accepted and who see your potential. You will find friends who support your aspirations and cheer you on every step of the way. You will find friends who better you rather than bring you down and who make you feel nothing but loved. You will find friends that are worthy of being your friends. Never let them go.

In time you will find success. You will realize that other people may be smarter than you, but they're not as creative. Stay ambitious and continue to work hard and you will find all of the success you desire, and all of those who doubted you and didn't think you were good enough, whether it be that girl who always gave you a hard time, or that boy who didn't see how great you were, will see you're more than they thought, because you are and you should know it.

No one knows you quite as well as you do. No one knows your capabilities, your strengths and your weaknesses. You might not even know this about yourself. Each and every person has strengths and weaknesses. Learn to use yours to your advantage, in ways other people can't. Every person is different, but every person is still good enough. Never let anyone make you feel like you aren't. If people can't see how wonderful you truly are, let them go because someone else will.

You are good enough.

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.
