You Deserve Better, Girl

look. i know it feels wonderful to love. and to be loved in return. but because we live in reality, not all of us get our happy endings. so when you don't get your happy ending, what do you do?
simple.
remember that you have a 'me' to take care of.
what do i mean?
i mean that you still have yourself to pay attention to, dearest. all these years, when you traveled all those roads and encountered all those obstacles, who did you have? (aside from the parents, if you're thinking that.) when you tripped, fell, got bruised and broken, and decided to pick yourself up, who made that decision and who did you make it for?
if you answered someone else's name to those questions, you may want to reconsider knocking on the door of your heart and asking whoever's inside there to wake up. (no sarcasm or pun intended.)
however, if you answered 'me', or 'I did it for myself', then you know what I'm getting at. In the end, dear, all you'll ever really have is yourself. i the beginning, it was what you had, and you're going to end with it. and no, this isn't some article that's teaching you to be narcissistic, or to be some hardcore independent woman who doesn't rely on anyone else; NO. this is meant to tell you that you are yourself; and for being that, you need to know that you deserve SO MUCH BETTER.
when someone talks badly behind you about your back, ignore him/her. he/she's not worth it. sure, confront him/her so you can trace the root of the problem, but if he/she refuses to talk and instead challenges you to a fight, MOVE ON. YOU DESERVE SO MUCH BETTER than a stupid, pointless, catfight that 'supposedly' proves who you are.
when someone tells you you're not good enough, without proper basis, leave him/her be. he/she's baseless, and won't really contribute much to your life. of course, i'm not saying you shouldn't listen to anyone who critiques you--i'm just saying that you need to see the basis, the solidity of the argument, before you go beat yourself up for making a mistake like that. again. YOU DESERVE SO MUCH BETTER than hollow, baseless, and useless criticism.
and finally, the most common example.
when you fall in love, and the guy doesn't love you, or falls out of love for you, be sure to have a closure, and then move on. the problem with most people who insist they can't move on is that they likely missed the closure. everyone needs to talk; to have a definitive end to something. you deserve as much as that. however, once you've talked, and you've had your closure, girl, please...
MOVE ON. YOU DESERVE SO MUCH BETTER.
you're beautiful, wonderful, a masterpiece of the Creator; thus, it is a given that you are destined for greatness. each time you feel like giving up, or going back to something that you know isn't good for you anymore, just remember that. aside from the fact that you deserve so much better, you are also destined for greatness.
so don't let that person who called you 'nerd' or 'igat' behind your back destroy your reputation.
don't let that person who told you 'you're not good enough' ruin your talent and potential.
moreover, don't let that guy who broke your heart dictate your future.
because you deserve better, girl. because you are destined for greatness. :)
