The People I've Met
Lauren Mar 2017
I've met so many different people throughout this year. And they all inspired me.

I've met people who brighten my day just by their presence. I've met people who surprise me with coffee. People who I can bring on all my adventures with and share my thoughts, secrets, and wishes. Those are my people

Then I met people who wanted to see me fail. People who made me feel unwelcome. People who get upset over success and positive outlook. People who don't make the effort and then get mad when I move on. People who find one little thing wrong with you and then gossip about you to make you look bad to others. Bitter people.

And that's okay. They all inspired me. They inspired me to keep shinning and doing what I love and to always be me. Everyone inspires me. Everyone.

Mess
Lauren Feb 2017
You're a mess.
A beautiful mess that is.
The stress you're feeling now will pay off
And you will smile. Oh you will smile.
You will wake up and look in the mirror and be so happy you never quit.
It's hard now, but the light at the end of the tunnel is worth it.
So worth it.

So do what you love and do it with the cheesiest smile.
Kick, punch, run, sprawl, and smile.
Just don't forget that you're doing your best.
And one day, your best will be good enough.
I can and I will

Stars
Lauren Feb 2017
Look at the stars and how they shine for you.
Your deepest fears, your happiest thoughts, look how they shine.
No matter what, they are shining.
So why aren’t you?
You need to be confident with your light

You have something
Lauren Feb 2017
I can't quite put my finger on it, but you've got something. Something that others don't. The charm, the outlook, the way you walk. There's just something that captivates me when I see you. You're not scared to be yourself. Everything just comes naturally. And I love it.

Move on and make room
Lauren Mar 2017
Let me tell you something. You deserve a lot more than what you put up with.
You deserve people who are happy for your success. You deserve someone who you can call at any hour of the night and just talk about anything with. You deserve belly laughs, smiles, endless adventures. So tell me, why are you settling? Settling for people who don't care about your feelings and aren't happy for you. Settling for people who makes excuses as to why they don't want to be your friend. Settling for people who are so quick to exclude you.
It's time to move and make room for people who genuinely care about you.
As they always say, when the wrong people leave your life, the better ones enter.
**Be you
The worst feeling in the world is when someone gives up on you, but as long as that person isn't yourself, you'll be fine.
Let it go

Do You Believe in....
Lauren May 2018
Love?
Being the truest version of you?
Letting go of doubts?
Letting go of fear and trusting faith?
Fairies?
Never growing up?
Living life to the fullest?
Traveling so far that you find yourself?
Letting go of your doubts?







Miracles?!

YES!
Do you believe?
