To The Man Who Saved A Sinking Ship

You took my hand and never let go

There are some things in our lives we keep buried deep inside. You were brave enough to uncover everything I had hidden away from this world. You took all those things and picked them out one by one. It took a lot of time, patience, hugs and tears but you proceeded to love me unconditionally.

We grab ahold of things that bring us comfort, and you have held my hand throughout it all. You have let me dance in the rain, sing at the top of my lungs, took care of me when I was sick, and sat at every doctor's appointment by my side. You kept composer during the times I was falling to pieces, which seem like a lot.

You have woken up every day for the past 465 days with the same love and compassion. Each day you have made me smile at least once contrary to what you may believe. I smiled when you first said you loved me, I smiled when you wisphered the words beautiful, and I smile when you give me the world's biggest hugs. I smile because you know how to treat me. I smile because you are my reason to.

We have spent close to two years learning what our likes, dislikes and pet peeves are when it comes to us. We have took that time to always let each other know that we are loved by one another. We have fulfilled at least one of our dreams since being together. During that time frame we have built each other to become stronger, and more loving towards each day that comes our way.

You took the hardest job knowning it would not be easy. You saved my ship of troubles from sinking, you threw out my life jacket knowing I could not swim. I appreciate that you are mine. To the moon and back with love.

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
