When To Let Go

Even when you think you shouldn't.

When To Let Go
hdimagesnew.com

The beginning of everything is always exciting and new. You get that feeling a young kid gets when they learn how to ride a bike… scared, but reckless. Falling in love feels exactly like that. It feels amazing, but on the inside you are absolutely terrified. What are you really scared of? Rejection? Unfaithfulness? Not sharing mutual feelings?

Instead of fearing it, you go for it full throttle. You give it all your time and effort, because maybe, just maybe this one is different than the last. You hope and pray that you found the one that is going to stay. The one who will sweep you dead off your feet and never drop you.

Instead of all the beautiful flowers and cliché messages all you got was heartache and disappointment. That “one” you fell heads over heals for changed their mind and has left you insecure and confused.

This is when you look at yourself in the mirror and say over and over again that you deserve someone who will give you the entire universe and not think twice about it. Let me tell you how much you are worth it. How you deserve so much more than just the universe. One day you will find that special someone that sees how worth it you really are.

Make a promise to yourself that you will let go when that little voice in your head says this situation is not right. Let go when you start questioning yourself. Most importantly, promise yourself that you will let go the very first night you cry yourself to sleep over the “one”, because let me tell you that the “one” will not let you go to sleep upset or mad. I promise you that it will never go away and when you have the wrong person in your life that you will not give up even after all the signs; God will allow this person to continue to hurt you until you realize. You are stronger than any of that, and until you see that all that you need to know is that…

You are Beautiful and you are worth it.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer.
