A Letter To Me

Well I wrote this for one of my classes, damn Rec 502, and my friend Amanda cleaned it up for me because I’m not the best writer in the world but after much pondering I figured I would put it up for others to enjoy. Feel free to comment on it and tell me if you think this is how I will really be.

Dear Bones,
I write you today from the future. I know you are wondering why I would write you from the future but there are things you need to know. I know that life gets hard for you and it doesn’t get any easier in the future, but you have a lot to live for. Don’t forget to reach for the things you love in life. Always remember to keep the people close that you hold dear. Make it a point to reach for the stars to make a difference. As it may seem helping one person doesn’t make a difference but from experience it makes all the difference
Be strong my young self, for being weak isn’t an option. You have a great group of friends to back you up whenever you are feeling down. I know you worry about being alone, for many of us fear that one, but with the people you have in your life you will never be lonely. They may disappear from your life sometimes, but know that they will always be there when you need them, and because of them you are a stronger person. Be true to yourself and to others, and don’t be afraid to let them know how you feel.
Never forget that there are people in your life that are going to reappear that mean the world to you, don’t let them go so easily this time. At some points in our life you will have to make some tough decisions about the company you keep, make the right choices. One tough one is Amanda; you love her, as she loves you. The baggage is great, but only you can find out the end to that story, but never get your hopes down about her. Our life is a great story that you have to live to experience the way I did, and I know you will enjoy the ride. Never worry about pain or failure for you are not a failure, you have all the tools you need to succeed in life.
William never forget that no matter what you do, that there is always going to be people or that one in particular person that will help you up when you are falling or push you to the last step you need to win the race. We are one and by one we can make the us a me. Heed to my words for I’m the one who get here before you to experience what you needed to succeed in life and always know that you can lean on you no matter what. 
Always,
William Mitchner

Fuck ups we Are

We are all fuck ups

In our own special way.

Not saying its bad

but none of us are the same.

 

Now the question is

what is considered a fuck up

is it a mistake you make

or a chance you didnt take

 

Is it that addiction

that you chose to let through

Is it that alcohol

through your lips you pursued.

 

Is it the girl or guy

You let into your bed.

Is it that lie you told

in hope that the truth is hid.

 

Is it your living situation

or the disease you were born with

is it the car you drive

or the road you’ve lived

 

We are all fuck ups

but that is no reason to cry

For even as fuck ups 

We are special in his eyes.

 

He loves you no matter what

And there is no doubt to that.

no matter what drug you pumped,

or lie you’ve told.

 

You are SPECIAL,

In his eyes and mine.

for in the end

All fuck ups must unite.

What is LOVE

What is Love?

love is a friend,
Constantly inspiring you to be better,
To be stronger, to love deeply,
And to look at yourself in a positive light.

Love is your sister,
The one who forced you to grow,
The one who gave you a reason
To live better and to push for a brighter future.

Love is your mom,
Constantly looking past your flaws
Developing a sense of hope within,
And teaching you how to believe.

Love is your brother,
Teaching you how to be a man,
Showing what not to do,
And how to ask for forgiveness.

Love is your father,
The push to make him proud,
The knowledge that he’ll always support,
And give you the love that you need.

Love is a stranger to meet,
You pass by so many times,
Only to notice one day,
How important they are.

So what is love?
Love is everything,
Love is everyone,
It’s what makes joy in life.
