I hope you I am able to help you find your way.

I pray each and every day that you all succeed and find your way through this journey we call life. I WANT you to succeed. I NEED you to succeed.

I wish I could give you everything you have ever wanted. I wish that I could solve all of your problems. I wish I could make each and every one of yours days the best they can be.

As Rascal Flatts once sang,

"My wish, for you, is that this life becomes all that you want it to,
Your dreams stay big, your worries stay small,
You never need to carry more than you can hold,
And while you're out there getting where you're getting to,
I hope you know somebody loves you and wants the same things too,
Yeah, this, is my wish.

I hope you never look back, but you never forget,
All the ones who love you, in the place you live,
I hope you always forgive, and you never regret,
And you help somebody every chance you get,
Oh, you find God's grace, in every mistake,
And always give more than you take."

I hope you all learn something from me. I hope you know that I genuinely care about each and every one of you! I will do all I can for each and every one of you.

I hope that I have impacted all of you. I hope that you know how much you all have helped me grow as a person.

I need you to know that the strength and power that you all have shown me is what you need to show the world. You all are going to do amazing things in your life. I hope that one day you look back on our time spent together and remember where you came from.

I pray that you are given the world. I pray for the strength to help you will all you may face. Remember that no matter what or where you are in life I CARE ABOUT YOU!

Never hesitate to call, email, text, or even dm me. I will always stand by and support you. No matter if you are 18 or 88 I will always be here for you.

I will never walk away from you and you are important.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
