Stop Running Back To A Life That Wasn't Meant For You

God created a specific plan for you, don't you want to know what it is?

Stop Running Back To A Life That Wasn't Meant For You

My biggest pet peeve is hearing people complain about their situation. There is always something you can do to change your situation. It's all about how bad you want it and truth is, some people love to be miserable.

I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason-even if you don't know the reason at the time. It's cliche to say, but some doors do close for better ones to open so who are you to try and pry the old door back open? The past wasn't meant for you but the future is waiting for you.

You think that if you can go back, you can change things, but you can't rewrite the ending. Let it be. If you were still meant to be in that place or with that person, God wouldn't have pulled you in a different direction.

Stop staying in your comfort zone, you don't grow there. Nothing gets accomplished if you stay in a position where there is no longer an opportunity for growth. Stop complaining that you're not going anywhere and step up. I know it's intimidating, but if you weren't ready, God wouldn't have given you this new opportunity. There's never going to be a time where you are 100% ready, remember that.

You owe it to yourself to see what is waiting for you. God created a specific plan for you, don't you want to know what it is? What's waiting for you? Be scared, but do it anyway.

This is your sign. It's time to move on. You've served your purpose and this situation has serve its too. Go see what's waiting for you. I promise that you won't regret it.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
