To The Person Needing Hope For The Future

You are still so young don't be so concerned about things that are completely out of control. Things happen but that's just how this life works, you need to be prepared for the worst so you can maneuver efficiently through life with little stress. You don't necessarily need to have your entire life figured out at this exact moment, there's wiggle room. Always.

Life is constantly throwing you for twist and turns you'll never see. You could plan for something and get a totally different outcome which is why you should always have a plan B no matter what. Having one can give you a positive outlook on the future knowing that you have a backup to deter you from failure. And always having options can help too. If you can always have a choice in most matters it could make you feel more in control of your life.

Look more for positives. Easier said than done right? But if you really look at little positives throughout your day, almost automatically you feel better and won't focus your attention on anything unworthy of it.

You may feel down and out of place now but I can promise it will get better. Yes the future can seem pretty cloudy right now and you don't know what to expect but hey that's part of the experience. You need to feel the low valleys in this life to even get to feel the highest peaks. Whatever is plaguing you will cease eventually, you have to give it time and little thought. Positive mind equals a positive life. It may not get better in the next five minutes or days, but it will. You also have to be willing to stand up and actually give it a fight because laying down and taking it will make not a single thing better. You can do this, I know you can. If you give up now what will that do to all of your hopes and dreams? Go with the method that scares you the most because you'll learn so much from the experience. Have faith in yourself. You've been through a lot to be here and you can do it again because you're strong. You got this.

I promise

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.
