Dear different,

Let me get this out to the world: you are different, and to be different is better. Hearing about your state of condition for the first time, not only opened my eyes but confused me. You were different; you were like a unicorn, rare and exotic. We did not necessarily get off on the right foot, but we eventually grew closer and became close friends, and soon enough we considered each other family.

In today's world, it is common to see many transition from what they used to be into someone they were born to be. However, it is unheard of that many allow or accept it. Don't let this be a setback. Let this be a chance for you to prove those wrong and show them how strong you are. You don't need anyone but yourself to be happy and better about yourself.

Seeing you change from a fragile, delicate state to a gorgeous, and more confident you has brought out the best in you. Let me tel you. you are the best friend a girl could ask for. Your change from one gender to the next is difficult, and it's a road most don't make through. You are strong, and you are passionate. Don't let this deteriorate your image or cause setbacks. You've gotten this far, so don't let those around you swing negative vibes your way.

Remember, different is what you are, and to be different is better.

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.
