An article I wrote back in March 29 2009.
- inspired piece from true life events.
Dear You,
I completely understand what you’re going through and I know it hurts, trust me, I’ve been there and it wasn’t easy for me either. However, it isn’t the end of the road for you, there are so much more things out there worth being happy about. For instance, you have a warm loving family, awesome friends and of course God is with you all the way; all you need is faith and I’m sure with the beautiful person that I know you are, you can reach great heights and achieve so much more. Life isn’t just focused on that one person that you once depended on, there was life before that person and therefore, life outside him. Don’t belittle your world, instead, focus on your life, set goals to achieve and live your dream. Whoever told you that you aren’t capable? Everyone is capable, and with that being said, you can and will excel on things you never thought or imagined. Love never started from someone else to begin with, it started from you. All that love inside of you had been there all along; other people just made you realize that it was there, nevertheless, it came from you. YOU, YOU, YOU!! Keep that in mind.
It is never too late to correct your mistakes, to change and to grow; with every trial faced, is another lesson learned. Life is a journey, a gift, a miracle and a blessing; you are here today stronger than yesterday although you may not realize and for that I salute you. I am proud of you as you stand in the middle of the storm while you patiently wait for the sun to shine, I am proud of you for making it out alive with whatever life throws at you, I am proud of you for being a martyr, hurting on the inside yet putting on a strong front, I am proud of you for the continuous joy you give other people regardless of your sorrow, I am proud of you for everything that you are. You are beautiful, strong, smart, fun, and cheerful. You are every good word found in the dictionary and you have no reason not to believe that you are special because through my eyes you are unique and there’s no one in the world that is quite like you. You amaze me, you amuse me and you impress me with your little ways. The light you project outshines the shadow of my broken past and because you lived, I have no more reason to doubt.
