I’m sorry but when did I become everyone’s therapist? Why is everyone coming to me? I honestly could not care less about everyone else’s problems. I don’t see them anywhere when I have a problem. It just seems a little fucked up that the same people who are constantly using me for help are never really there when I need the same thing. And why does it seem like it’s always a competition of who has it worse? It just really bothers me that, I always have to be there for certain people, but I can’t tell them about any of the problems I’m having. I can’t talk to them the same way because my problems aren’t as bad. I’m ready to start pulling away. I’m ready to surround myself with people who are willing to put in the same effort. I’m done feeling like and being everyone’s last priority.

Dear Little Lost Girl
Dear Little Lost Girl, Always remember to speak your mind. It's ok if you make people mad. It just means you're doing something right. You'll thank yourself for it later. It's the best thing for you in the end. Those who truly care will always stick around. You'll find the people who truly matter. Don't let the little things bother you. It's not worth the energy. It's not worth your peace of mind. Don't waste your time. Focus on what's truly important to you. Things won't always go your way. That's just the way life goes. Always remember that life is what you make it. You decide how far you'll go. No one can live your life for you. You have to keep going. You can't let them win. You have to outlive your enemies. Even if it means surviving purely out of spite. You are meant to be here. You are meant to be. It's your time to shine. All of your experiences become life lessons. Remember to take notes. You can do anything you want. You are fully capable of great things. There is no turning back now. Forget the past and keep your eyes on the future. Let me offer you some words of wisdom. First of all, don't take advice from people who aren't where you want to be in life. Trust me on this one. it may not make sense right now but it will. Secondly and probably most importantly, be honest with people. I know it’s hard but always speak your truth. You may hurt peoples feelings but in the end it’s worth it. Life is hard enough without you being hard on yourself. Give yourself a break. Say exactly how you feel. As Dr. Seuss once said, “be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don’t matter and those who matter don’t mind.” Try to always be unapologetically you. Speak your truth and be loud about it. It’s not worth it to feel miserable all the time. It’s ok to hurt peoples feelings. It’s ok to disagree with people and argue when you’re passionate about things. Remember that you have to live with yourself every single day. No one else does. Life will always go on.
