To My Fiancee, This Is Why I Love You

Because I know that I don't tell you WHY I love you enough.

To My Fiancee, This Is Why I Love You
Cierra Donnelly

As we are rapidly approaching the end of school careers and beginning wedding planning, I want to remind you why I love you.

I love you because you make me smile when I don't think it's humanly possible. Hell, you made me smile the day after my grandma died and I always told myself growing up that after I lost her I would never smile again.

I love you because you don't judge me when all I want to do is lay in bed. You lay there with me until I'm ready to be productive.

I love you because you always tell me that you're proud of me even when I feel like I've failed. You remind me that as long as I've done my best, that it's all that matters.

I love you because you make me feel comfortable in my own skin. No matter whether I'm wearing a dress, shirt and tie, or sweatpants you make sure I know how beautiful I am. And that in itself is something I could never thank you enough for. Growing up I was so insecure with the way I looked, dressed, and presented myself. I would even go as far as to say that I hated myself. I was questioning my sexuality, struggling with self harm, and body issues. Before I met you I had already had all of those things under control, but you just solidified the fact that I was stronger and more beautiful than I gave myself credit for.

I love you for accepting the fact that I fangirl over Demi and Fifth Harmony. And for not judging me for crying when Camila left. You held me and listened to why the group was so important to me and why it had affected me so much.

I love you for proposing to me because I was too much of a wimp to do it. I've known that you were the one I wanted to marry for a while now, but I was too scared to take the next step.

I love you for rubbing my back after a long day to help me fall asleep.

I love you for forgiving me each time we fight and argue. I know we've both said things that we regret and things that I wish we could take back, but in the end I feel like they've made us stronger.

I love you because you're my home. I don't care where life takes us as long as we're together.

I love you for being strong. After the last couple months, I've seen you grow into a woman I never expected you to become but I am so glad that you did. I can't imagine life without you.

I love you for always picking up the dog poop because it makes me gag. You're the real MVP.

But most of all, I love you because for the last almost year and a half you took a chance on romance and have chosen to give your love to me. I feel so honored to be the one that you choose to love every day. That gets to spend the rest of her life with someone as great as you. So any time we argue and you think it's the end of us, I want you to read this and remember that I love you with all of my heart. And I promise to love you for the rest of my life because I know that you're choosing the same thing. Thank you for being you. I'm in love with you the most.

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.

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.
