5 Truths about your life.

It is so easy to feel like your life is not worth much-- to believe that your life is nothing more than the mundane routine that it life has become. I find myself asking, "What is the purpose of life" or "Do I even have a purpose" sometimes.

But the awesome thing is that each life, mine and yours, has a unique and extraordinary purpose. No matter how we see ourselves, it is important to understand what God says about us.

1. You are fearfully and wonderfully made. (Psalm 139:14)

God made you in His image and knows every single thing about you. He made no mistakes when He made you. Everything about you is intentional.

2. You are a child of God. (Galatians 3:26)

More so, you are adopted into the family of Christ and always, always, always have a home for your heart. You belong. You are wanted. You are loved.

3. You are forgiven. (Ephesians 1:7)

Nothing you have ever done is so terrible that the blood of Christ cannot and will not cover it. You can live in freedom and joy because Christ died so that you could live a fulfilled and meaningful life.

4. You are more than a conqueror. (Romans 8:37)

You are so much stronger than you think you are and you are capable of so much more than you know. Never let anyone tell you anything different because nothing can separate you from the love of God and His plan for you.

5. You have a plan for your life designed by God. (Jeremiah 29:11)

You were made on purpose and you have a purpose. No matter how hard life gets at times, never forget that the God who made the moon and the stars knows your name and crafted you for a specific calling.


When you feel like you have no significance, remember that the Creator of the universe had you in mind from the very beginning. There is a magnificent plan for your life. Go live it!

"I knew you before I formed you in your mother's womb. Before you were born I set you apart and appointed you as my spokesperson to the world." -Jeremiah 1:5

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.
