This Letter Is To You

We all have those days where we just feel like we aren’t good enough. We aren’t smart enough, pretty enough, talkative enough, tall enough, outgoing enough; the list goes on and on. However, none of this is true. We are constantly comparing ourselves to other people and seeing what they have that we don’t.

But why do this when all it leads to is you being unhappy with yourself?

Trust me, I know its not easy but once you realize this it makes it a bit more simple. Everyone compares themselves to other people. This means that there are people out there who compare themselves to you. As much as you don’t believe it, there are people who look at you and want something you have. And yes, there are people who look at you and think otherwise, but screw those people.

You shouldn’t let anyone bring you down, no one regardless of how close they are to you. You are the only person who can be the judge of yourself. This is your life and you can live it anyway you want to. And you know what, yes you are going to have bad days and you’re just going to want to lay in bed and never move, and there are going to be nights where you sit on the bathroom floor and can’t stop crying, but there are also going to be amazing days. There are going to be days where you just want to drive to nowhere, blasting music and feeling the wind in your hair, and days where you laugh at everything and anything because you are just so completely happy. Life is full of good moments and bad moments because without the bad you wouldn't be able to appreciate the good. So enjoy everyday and if there is someone trying to tell you how you should live your life, ignore them and be yourself because life is too short to pay attention to what others think of you. Don't let irrelevant people bring you down.

I know its hard and you can't help but hold on to the negative things someone says about you, but all the negativity isn't worth it, it won't matter in a few years. You have gone through and will go through so much more. Think of it this way:

You have survived up to this point in your life. You have survived heartbreak, traumas, devastation, loss, lies, all the phases you have been through and more. You have been through a lot, but here you are, still standing strong. You’re incredible and full of so much potential. You have so much left to do in your life but you also have so much time to figure it all out, listen to your heart and don't let anyones words or actions influence your opinion of you.

So take a deep breathe, remember what got you here and hang on because better things are coming your way.☼ ☺ ☆ ♡

Here Is How You Are Ruining Your Life Every Morning

Your alarm goes off, you roll over and wake up, what’s the first thing on your mind? The exam you have today? Work? Something you’re avoiding? You finally manage to pull yourself out of bed and get ready for the day. You look in the mirror and hate everything you see Not skinny enough Skin not clear enough Hair not long enough You say today will be a good day but you go on continuing your everyday routine. When you wake up and the first thoughts running through your mind all morning are negative ones, you’re setting your mindset to be a negative one. You’re basically setting yourself up for a bad day. You don’t choose to fix anything, instead you choose to complain. It’s easier to complain though, isn’t it? But the thing is, every single morning you have a choice. Everything in life is a choice. You can choose to dread something happening that day, you can choose to feel crappy about your appearance, and you can choose to be unhappy. You chose who you are and eve...

On The Road To Happiness

A few months ago my world kind of just stopped. This time last year my life seemed like it was in the perfect place, I was happy. I had amazing friends, an even more amazing family, and I was over all just in a really great place in my life. But then my mom got sick along with my two grandfathers. Life just got, sad. There’s really no other way to put it. I had three extremely important people in my life pass away within a few months of each other. Loss is difficult, I understand that, but having to watch my mom suffer for the summer and pass away at such a young age in my life really effected me in a way that I don’t think many people can understand. I just couldn’t be the same constantly happy, and positive person I was before this. Surprisingly though I didn’t get as depressed as I expected to. Obviously it was a lot to handle and didn’t really come as an initial shock at first but when it hit, it hit hard. But, as known from previous posts of mine I got through this by follo...

I'm Not Okay, But I Will Be

“How are you doing?” I hear this question constantly recently. Everyone’s worried about me and how I may be handling life after this summer. It’s understandable though, after the loss of my grandfather on top of the loss of my mother, both in a short period of time, who wouldn’t be worried? When my response isn’t that I’m curled up in a ball on the bathroom floor having a breakdown, it seems to worry people even more. How am I fine? How am I handling everything so well? The assumption is that I’m holding everything in or ignoring the issue, but it’s not that at all. So for everyone who’s been wondering, here what’s really been going on: This summer sucked. My grandpa passed away, I watched my mom suffer for most of the summer and then pass away, my other grandpa is sick, and on top of all that I spent forty hours a week working, sometimes even fourteen...
