An Open Letter to Whoever Cares the Least,
“Whoever cares the least, wins” you would always tell me. When I would be crying over a heartbreak, you’d say this as if it’s the answer to all life problems. As if love and relationships are just a game. That the outcome to every situation in life, there will be a winner and loser.
“Whoever cares the least, wins”
You say these words to me as if you cared for me. But really, you were setting up the game. The Who Could Care the Least Game.
How you played: You are only kind to me when it was most convenient for you or wanted something in return. On a good day, you would greet me with a smile, open the door for me, and may even compliment me. In front of others, you would boast how proud you were of me. You would offer me your drinks,...

Dear Depression,
I was 14 when i first met you. You never had asked to be friends you took over my life. As I close my eyes at night I see you staring at me with a smirk knowing I can not get rid of you. My happy days were gone you kept following me around making me feel like i was unwanted. I didn’t want you here. You had grew as I grew. You had crept into those quiet moments when I thought I was alone. You changed my thoughts making me feel like I was nothing. You said you’ll make me feel better…… but you’ve only made me worst.You had left me feeling like nothing. Like a broken shell of a girl. But I wasn’t always like this I used to be happy as the sun came out shining on my skin as I ran and laughed like I had no care in world. At that time we weren’t friends we were enemies. I...

Dear Myself,
Wazzz up, how you doin? Well i’m doing great. You on the other hand, not so well, let’s talk. Well I know that your grades are not good at all like WTF bro. I know you can do better but your acting like your not smart but you are. Everybody tells you this and you know you are. But why are you holding back all that potential? You used to love going to school and learning all throughout middle school but its like you hit a big ass wall you can’t get passed 9th grade year. Its like you just gave up and left. Not now, not here, not at this point in your life. Come on now, pick it, up you got this.Only thing I can say is get it together?
Another thing, stop being so scared to talk to new people, why are you shy. Your not a shy person but you act like you are whenever you try...

Dear Misery,
I remember the times I was happy, before I met you. Maybe I wasn’t always the happiest but at least I had some joy in my life. Smiling wasn’t a big deal, but then I met you and my face turned angry like the dark, black storms. Misery, you have turned my whole life around just so you can squeeze into it. I blame myself for letting you go this far into terrorizing my life, you could’ve at least been decent.You could have at least let me have some light and some happiness but no. Now, I'm going to bring the light to the deep truth of the life you wanted for me.
I’ve hated you since the first time I experienced you in my life. The pain you’ve inflicted upon me caused wounds to cut deep within. Your words have haunted my existence in this world. Misery, You couldn't stand me...

Dear Management,
I wanted to write you a quick letter. I am sure you haven’t thought twice about me since you fired me for really no quantifiable reason earlier this year. But I think about you all the time. I think about all the precious time I wasted working for you. I think about how you took me for granted, squashed my dreams, and killed my soul at little bit more each day for nearly a decade. I think about the time I lost with my kids because I was committed to you and your company. Time I’ll never get back. You might expect this letter to be a nasty tale of all the horrible things you did to me over the years. Nope. I actually wanted to thank you for a few things. I learned a lot from you.
Thank you for teaching me how NOT to manage and lead people. You taught me that...

"We are all addicted to something that takes the pain away."
How many times have you seen that phrase used in sentimental images, or in ironic memes? Probably a handful, considering how much both of these things get thrown around on social media. The sad part is, it's entirely true.
For my mom, it's coffee, cleaning, and reading a good book. For a few of my friends, swallowing large clouds of thick marijuana smoke. For me - it's causing myself more pain.
I know you're worried about me. Trust me, I know. Ever since I was first spotted with a very minor incision across my left wrist, and ushered away by a concerned teacher to talk about feelings, I've known.
I've become used to the stares, the questions. The name calling and the whispers.
It's unsightly. It's ugly and I'm...

First off, I would like to say that I am in no way judging anyone who was a part of this election or articles. I hold no judgment, only concern for each and every person who voted in favor of Karen Oliveto and those who are accepting this act of disobedience to God's Word. I am greatly concerned for the people who are ignorant to the truth, and the children who are now being taught that not only is being LGBT okay, but that God condones it and maybe even encourages it! I was quite shocked at the level of acceptance on this matter. My main questions are: Where are all the true Christians? Where are the Elders of the church to lift up God's Word in desperate times? Will nobody stand up and give the true Word of the Lord Jesus Christ?
The church (I am referring to the body of Christ)...

This whole Charlotte situation has me so upset. Not only am I worried about my son who lives 15 minutes from there but all the innocent business owners, innocent people, and our police force, news reporters,and now the Military. Yes I totally get it you are mad, frustrated with the system, feel targeted, but don't your animal like behaviors go against everything you are protesting for. Just think about it you say 2 men were innocently killed. You want your voices heard. But the problem is who do you think is listening to you amoungest all your destructive behavior. You say the police broke the law and want them to be held accountable and I agree with you completely if they acted inappropriately. So the same standards you are all fighting for apply to all your actions over these past few...

Dear Bullies,
Today has been a day of reflection and growth. A day of gratitude and appreciation; a day of being thankful. Today Bullies; I found thanks for all of you who have spent time in my life, and I wanted to make this newly found appreciation public-so here I go!
See Bullies, you have been the most consistent source of feedback throughout my 36 years of life, ever present. When I was a youngster, you always provided me with feedback on my self worth; my beauty; my value (or lack thereof) as a human being.
As I grew Bullies you remained ever present; never too distant, never too busy to remind me that you define me, that your views of who and what I should be were of the utmost importance-constantly making me a top priority in your life! Always finding time to deman me...

I scrolled past your Facebook post to the disgust that a human being could repost a video about a public torture/execution of a gay man in Africa with hateful words stating that gays should deserve that punishment. I can't restate what you said, since it was so evil and insensitive but I also couldn't believe that 2 hours into your post, none of your 3000 Facebook friends replied with a single comment. Unfortunately, in our day and age, we always feel so safe not projecting our voices about what is right and wrong for someone else, with the fear that the comment would be retaliated with embarrassment or our own insecurities. I could confess that for a moment after seeing your post, I felt the same way. But I sat on it for a couple of minutes before replying "That's f*cked up", to which...
