You Are So Important, Please Remember That

Please stick around, 'cause you and I can change the world but I need you here to do it.

You Are So Important, Please Remember That
Mikayla Carr

In This Article:

I am a pretty understanding of being a sad bitch. I am diagnosed with clinical depression and I take antidepressants and I do the talk therapy, and it sometimes helps. But sometimes it doesn't. The problem with fighting with your own mind is that it is incredibly difficult to try and cope with day to day. I know what it feels like to be alone and want to go away permanently.

But I argue, what if we stay? I know that the pain can be unbearable, but please know there is somebody who maybe you never met right here on this small part of the world who cares about you and thinks that you are valuable. I understand where you are at but there is so much to live for.

It breaks my heart to think about the fact that anyone would ever think they don't matter at all, because how would the world have your special spark if you aren't here? It wouldn't. You matter you are so important. Every moment you are here is a beautiful, perfect moment. I don't know if you need to hear this or not but I am so glad that you have struggled through every moment and that you are still here. It means something.

So, keep trying if not for me for yourself. Or your mom, or if you don't talk to your mother maybe your third cousin that you have a weird relationship where you only exchange memes. Stay alive for that next moment because I promise it is worth it, you are meaningful in this life or you wouldn't exist.

Recently, it has just been really hard to accept that people can feel so low and leave everyone behind. I wish I could help the people suffering consistently, it is just... really hard to see so many young lives lost to their own battle.

Please stick around, 'cause you and I can change the world but I need you here to do it.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
