10 Little Word Stories

I have recently started following a page on Facebook called "Ten Word Story." It is basically just a bunch of different quotes that are only ten words long. Most of them are very profound and are things that only my inner soul knows. Therefore, when I read them, things make sense. I know. That sounds a little weird. But it is kind of true. Reading these sentences that are only ten little words is kind of comforting. Of course, many of them are sad, but it puts into words things you may be feeling. These are some ten word stories that I have found to be the most relatable, profound, sad, ones I like, etc.. Warning: many of these are going to be sad. But I am a writer, and I love words. And the way these words go together is honestly quite beautiful, no matter how sad they are.

The most selfish thing I'll ever do, is love you.

You can't destroy me when I have already destroyed myself.

Yesterday is gone. Today is okay. Tomorrow will be better.

True, sincere love does not die in two weeks time.

I don't regret meeting you, but I regret believing you.

I'm cursed with a heart that never ceases to love.

Starts with a cute hello, ends with a sorrowful goodbye.

I will keep breathing no matter how much it hurts.

Do not fight for someone who wouldn't fight for you.

Keep in mind, not everyone you lose is a loss.

I was doing great, but then they said your name.

In the end, I'm writing for someone who won't care.

I will always make time for people who make time for me.

Let your heart be open so it can be filled.

Broken hearts write the most beautiful yet the saddest lines.

I wonder what people see when they look at me.

I was gasping for air, and you just walked away.

Damaged people are dangerous because they know they can survive.

In love I find passion, in loss I find strength.

Its easier to love myself when you love me too.

Everything, even a tiny flower, has a story worth telling.

You ended us and ended me in the same breath.

I could've written novels for what I felt for you.

Writing is the most painful way to get over someone.

My words are weak but my heart is so heavy.

Isn't it frustrating? Wanting someone who doesn't want you back.

I have you to thank for all the sleepless nights.

What do I do when home doesn't feel like home?

My life isn't exactly what I expected it to be.

And there is nothing more brave than choosing to care.

You deserve so much more than being in one-sided love.

I'll fall in love again, but you'll always be there.

I keep imagining the day you'll come back to me.

You were the only part of myself that I loved.

I hope that the thought of me eats you alive.

It's astounding how much things can change in a year.

This is something that I can't control, and I'm terrified.

I wish life was spent more carefree and always laughing.

Your heart isn't meant to beat for anyone but yourself.

If it hurts when you see them, you still care.

I keep thinking thoughts that I don't want to think.

You are still my person, even if I'm not yours.

I'll always wonder why it was so easy for you.

I knew you too well, and somehow, not well enough.

Broken and beautiful is a combination for a lovely disaster.

I deserve your apology, but you don't deserve my forgiveness.

I know nothing is wrong. But nothing is right, either.

My love is special because it's capable of lasting forever.

I realize that I am terrible at letting things go.

The worst kind of loneliness is when no one understands.

The smell of rain after a hot day: that's happiness.

Economic Benefits of Higher Wages

Nobody deserves to be living in poverty.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
