Smiling is contagious. We all have our own battles to fight. Each one of us! And sometimes all a person needs is a smile to reassure them that everything will be OKAY (because it will be). Maybe one smile can reassure that girl who sits beside you in the class, that someone sees her - that someone actually cares. Maybe one smile to a stranger you walk by in town today is all it will take to turn that rainy cloud hanging over him into a bright shining sun.
Sometimes I feel like everything in the world could be going wrong all at once. I feel so overwhelmed and frustrated. I think that nothing will ever go right and that I should just give up, but I believe that if I stay strong in all that I do, I can overcome anything. Anything is possible if you believe.A few days ago I was struggling with a lot of things in my life. My schoolwork was piled up with essays and projects and I had multiple exams to take. Ineeded to pack for the weekend because I was leaving to go visit my family. On top of all that, I had four of my good friends, back at home in California, pass away.It was really hard for me to understand why all this was occurring to me all at once. I felt like I had done something wrong and because of that my whole life was going insane. I wanted to give up on everything right then and there. For a while,I didn’t care much for schoolwork or for my exams. Even knowing that if I failed my exams it would hurt my grades very bad. I was behind on getting my things together for the weekend and wasn’t paying attention to how much time I had before I had to leave. My friends and family were both very supportive, but it took me, by myself,to get everything back into one piece.I made myself understand that everyone has hardships throughout their lives and that it does get difficult. Not everything is going to be easy. I started to study very hard and have confidence that I will do good and I took responsibility for myself and getting organized for the weekend. I reminded myself that my friends are in a better place, and that nothing could hurt them anymore because they are safe. It might take time and it might be hard, but I know that if I push myself to do well and strive to be successful, thatI can. I know that if I have confidence I can do what I think I cannot do. I need to always be strong and ready for anything even when things seem to be going completely wrong. This I Believe.

As we watch the sun go down, I want to let you know; my love for you is forever, I'll never let you go. You're the one I've been searching for, the one I've finally found; without you in my life, my world wouldn't go round. The love you bring into my heart, which is so true and kind; is something in no other, I could truly find. You're the only one for me, God tells me so, deep within my heart, mind body and soul. Today isn't just an ordinary Valentines Day, it's all about me and you; about the love we share, and how it will forever continue to grow. It's not all about the chocolates, or the dozen roses; it's about the love we found, how much we've been blessed. Everything happens for a reason, I believe this statement is true, that's why you were sent to me, and I was sent to you. I've never been more happy, as I've been with you; even through the rough times, we always ...
