Throughout your life you come across many different types of relationships. You can watch a father love their child and have that overwhelming feeling of warmness in your heart, maybe not as in depth of a mother, but something similar. You can experience heart break, multiple times, in a variety of ways. You can find friendships that last only momentarily or a lifetime. You meet extraordinary people and hear their unique stories.

Life is so full of experiences, unfortunately you look past the little things it has to offer. How many parts have you played in others lives? Have you ever been a care giver, lover, mother, father, or friend? Although not all those relationships last, you were still an important memory of their life. Often, they may come across your name and smirk with the thoughts of your memory running wild through their minds.

The impression you leave on someone's life is much more important than you may know. The moments you spend laughing along in the car, sitting up until the sunrise sharing stories, or just out adventuring the world are the moments that last forever. Take a step back, deeply examine the relationships you have had in your life, or currently having. How many different types of relationships have you had, what roles did you play in their lives, what roles did they play in yours? It is quite an extraordinary realization if you can think deeply enough.

With that being said, you are important. You have a profounding affect on each and every soul you come across and touch. The roles you play in others lives has an influence no matter if it is admirable or unfavorable. Imagine having a life time of those memories and feelings! Imagine this life with only memories of you, adventures not taken, and words unspoken. There are so many who would love to have those moments with you presently and in the future. Live your life to the greatest extent you are capable of. Leave that long-lasting imprint on another's life. Explore your mind, think deeply about the small, minor features that make up your life. You are here, wanted, and loved by so many. Keep holding on and never forget how important you truly are.

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.
