You Are Good Enough For Whatever It Is That You Want

So what if you weren't the first pick?

7

So she didn’t choose you?

Alright, that entire statement is horrendous in the first place; why are you even losing any sleep over another human being that had more than one choice? Always hold yourself up to a standard that you are not a choice. Your first mistake was even thinking that you were an option because I’m going to be honest, you aren’t.

You knew what you wanted, you didn’t need any other option than the only option, and that was the one human being that you wanted. Some people are lucky; they end up with the person who loves them just as much as they love them. Those are the people you look up too.

After going through everything, realizing you aren’t an option, you do some soul searching, you do some screwing around, you spend too much money at the bar, and you stay up way too late with people you don’t even know. All for the fact of feeling something other then what you are actually feeling. We have all gone through it and it is completely okay, because once you get to the step of actually acknowledging the fact that you are worth so much more, you are very attractive, and you have a bright-ass future ahead of you, then you start to fall back in love with yourself and the life that you are living. That is what matters the most.

So stop thinking about it in the sense of you weren’t picked, or it wasn’t the right time, or that it just didn’t happen because of some odd alien explosion on a different planet. You were good enough, and you still are good enough, just maybe not right now and maybe there is someone way better out there that is just waiting for you to stroll along their path. So until that day happens, keep on doing what you are doing, keep staying out late with a heavy bar tab, keep waking up early the next day, fall in love with your life, fall in love with your friends, and fall in love with the process.

Believe in the process, believe in the path you are on. It always gets better, no matter what happens.

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.
