To The Girl Who’s Been Told She’s Never Enough

You are enough to God

To The Girl Who’s Been Told She’s Never Enough
Rene Syler

First off, you are God’s child so you are enough for him and his followers.

Second off, you have more potential and a bigger heart than the person who told you that does.

Third off, who cares what people think?

I know that it is hard for people to not care what others think of them. It took me a long time to think this way. I have been through multiple “relationships” that ended this way before I realized this. It’s never easy to block out someone’s thoughts about you, especially if you really like them.

This is an issue every girl faces in life and even older adults.

To the girl who’s been told she’s never enough, you ARE enough. It isn’t going to matter what people think of you when you go to heaven or get a job. God is going to think you are enough for him. Also when you get a job, you are going to be enough for the job because that is how you got it in the first place. Another thing is that you are enough for your friends and your family members and that’s all that really matters. You do not need a man in your life to be happy.

That also took me time to figure out.

A lot of the things I am telling you about, takes time, efforts, and a support system. It helped me out a lot when I had at least one person to go to and talk about anything and everything with. She became my support system and I became hers. Also, my family members became my support system as well. It doesn’t matter who you pick to have that support system, but you at least need one to get through this. It definitely makes your life and self-esteem better.

You will always be enough in God’s eyes and in other people’s lives. If someone does not think you are good enough, then you need to kick them out of your life. They have a negative influence on your life and do NOT deserve your presence or time. Time is valuable and you should not waste it on dirt bags who think less of you.

NEVER settle for less!

We tend to do that when we get told we aren’t good enough and think that this is the only person who will care about us. In reality, there are plenty of people out there who think you are enough and that can treat you better. If your man doesn’t put in 100% like you do, leave him. He isn’t worth your time.

You have to be brave and stand up for yourself.

As Young M.A. would say, “These hates on my body shake ‘em off”. This girl has a point that we should follow and take seriously.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
