Be Proud

"You must be proud of yourself for seeing the real in people. You must be proud that you do not allow people who hurt you to turn you into someone like them. Be proud you recognize that people who try to break you are doing so from a place of pain. Be proud how you always choose to be the better human. Be proud of yourself for always taking the higher road. Be proud of yourself for not quickly making judgments or drawing conclusions or painting assumptions about the people who are mean to you. Be proud that you know how difficult life can be and that people can react to situations differently, that some people choose to hurt others, but you, you choose to be kind everyday. Be proud of yourself for not harboring ill feelings towards the ones who did and are still doing you wrong, for quickly forgiving them but never forgetting the lessons. Be proud of how you're able to keep your head high in spite of the mistreatment of others. Be proud because you understand that the source of their mean-spiritedness is from all the pain they've been through and left unhealed. You must be proud that you are able to carry on being kind and loving, showing them how to be an emotionally mature human being. You must be proud of how much your heart can contain. You must be proud of all the love you carry, so please don't ever, ever change..."

Girl Who Deserves A Chance

 Ryan, You asked me once, "Why do people love me?" I'll tell you why... Your energy is what makes people fall in love with you. It's how you make them feel. It is not your body, your money or your looks that make you magnetic. What makes you unforgettable is how you transform the hearts of people around you with your simple presence. That is your energy, that is your power, and that is why people love you. Jessica,     the girl who deserves a chance...

Backstage Stooge

 Dear Ryan,  You're delightful and a real treat to be around, a regular jack who's so down to earth. What you see is what you get with you. No pretenses, no false fronts, no ulterior motives or ill intentions. You're one to say what you're thinking with your eyes, you can never hide behind lies, and your sighs give you away. Although you're an exceptional actor, you shed those roles only to recreate yourself whenever you feel you need to. I suspect you've got some secrets and perhaps you very well could be a demon in disguise. But I seriously doubt the dark side of you isn't just as beautiful as the light side. You're no one's fool and you're fooling no one. You've simply got to walk in any room and your energy speaks for itself. You're one of a kind, and don't tell anyone, but I think my heart might become rather fond of you. Your co-star and backstage stooge, Jonah D.
