Dear Mister Player,
You have been in my life for so long and surprisingly we’re still in each other’s life, even though I have fought to be in it still. I was happy when you told me that you were glad that I fought so hard to stay in your life because I feel as if currently all my fighting is being paid back. Honestly, back when we were kids I would have never expected that I would be turning to you when I need someone to be there for me. I enjoy our conversations together very much because I can express myself as much as I want without because I know you won’t judge me at all. Even though I’m stubborn and can be a bitch sometimes to the point where I’m hard to stand, but you still remain by my side and constantly remind me that you’re there for me which is something I never had. We are miles apart and don’t speak to each other often, but it doesn’t matter because when we do talk it seems as if we have been talking to each other every day. Although I only have literally a handful of friends, I’m happy still cause I have people like you in my life who support me no matter what. All I want to say is thank you for being there for me and always checking on me to see if I’m fine. With what I have been through for the past few years, I can truly say that I’m thankful for having you in my life and that no one can ever replace you.
- Your Truly Stubborn Friend
I’m going to try to finish what I have started years ago, which is completing this letter challenge.

Day 28 — Someone that changed your life
Day 29 — The person that you want tell everything to, but too afraid to
Day 30 — Your reflection in the mirror
by Suji Kwock Kim
I don't mean to make you cry.
I mean nothing, but this has not kept you
From peeling away my body, layer by layer,
The tears clouding your eyes as the table fills
With husks, cut flesh, all the debris of pursuit.
Poor deluded human: you seek my heart.
Hunt all you want. Beneath each skin of mine
Lies another skin: I am pure onion--pure union
Of outside and in, surface and secret core.
Look at you, chopping and weeping. Idiot.
Is this the way you go through life, your mind
A stopless knife, driven by your fantasy of truth,
Of lasting union--slashing away skin after skin
From things, ruin and tears your only signs
Of progress? Enough is enough.
You must not grieve that the world is glimpsed
Through veils. How else can it be seen?
How will you rip away the veil of the eye, the veil
That you are, you who want to grasp the heart
Of things, hungry to know where meaning
Lies. Taste what you hold in your hands: onion-juice,
Yellow peels, my stinging shreds. You are the one
In pieces. Whatever you meant to love, in meaning to
You changed yourself: you are not who you are,
Your soul cut moment to moment by a blade
Of fresh desire, the ground sown with abandoned skins.
And at your inmost circle, what? A core that is
Not one. Poor fool, you are divided at the heart,
Lost in its maze of chambers, blood, and love,
A heart that will one day beat you to death.
An Unforgettable Night : )

This video may be short, but it brings upon a powerful message. Just in these three short minutes, no in a minute it has already brought tears to my eyes. This video make you realize how much you should appreciate your mother and the things she does for you because all she wants in return is your happiness. I love you mommy and appreciate the things you do for me and Irene. Just know that you are one extraordinary woman that I love who I can never replace because you are the only one who puts her children on top and would give up everything for them just to make them happy.
[Pre-Chorus]
Today is your day
You deserve a chance to shine, you’ve been waiting all your life
To live Today
I know the world’s been unkind, go ahead and take your time
Today is your day
Moments like these don’t last forever
So the seconds tick away
The choice is yours so now or never
[1st Verse]
I know you’ve had enough and you never got a break
You knew that it was comin’ but it never came your way
But it didn’t knock you down ‘cause you always kept the faith
And you prayed every night hoping for a better day
You knew that you deserved it ‘cause you’ve been through a whole lot
It might of slowed you down but you never once stopped
You would find your way home when you got a little lost
You would do it on your own, you weren’t scared to be alone
And that’s why you made it, even when it’s tough
You listened to your heart and you listened to your gut
And that’s why you’re amazing, you never gave up
Always out of luck but never ran out of love, no
And this world is a cold place
So you warmed it up by lighting up the propane
‘Cause you knew there’d be a day you’d have your way
You don’t have to save a date, today is your day
[Chorus]
You deserve a chance to shine, you’ve been waiting all your life
To live Today
I know the world’s been unkind. Go ahead and take your time
Today is your day
Moments like these don’t last forever, so the seconds tick away
The choice is yours so now or never..
(Don’t let it slip away)
[2nd Verse]
Have you ever felt like you were walking on a rope?
Trynna balance everything, hoping you don’t choke?
And you’re smiling on the outside but inside it’s cold
Even in your own home it’s a battle zone
‘Cause everything you did wasn’t good enough for them
Nothing seemed to fit and all the things you trusted in
Fell in the end. when everything you know went bad
You knew the hard times wouldn’t last so you kept on track
You never let ‘em shut you down, oh no
You believed these things would help you grow
You look good up top from down below
Everything that you went through helped you know
(Uh) That this world is a cold place
So you warmed it up by lighting up the propane
‘Cause you knew there’d be a day you’d have your way
You don’t have to save a date, today is your day
[Chorus]
You deserve a chance to shine, you’ve been waiting all your life
To live Today
I know the world’s been unkind. Go ahead and take your time
Today is your day
Moments like these don’t last forever, so the seconds tick away
The choice is yours so now or never..
(Don’t let it slip away)
Moments like these don’t last forever
(Don’t last forever)
Moments like like these just slip away
(Slip away, slip away)
The choice is yours so now or never
(Now or Never)
Don’t let it slip away

[Pre-Chorus]
Just when I thought love was a lie
Then you showed up in my life
You believe in what I do
But I need your trust that we’re gonna pull through
[Chorus]
I’ll be I’ll be there for you
I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be there for you
I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be there for you
I’ll be I’ll be I’ll be there for you
The world won’t see it
But between you and me, it’s perfect
Love in one word is your name
Baby to me, you’re worth it
[Verse 1]
it’s getting kinda difficult, adjusting to this lifestyle
No one here to hear me out, so I just write down
Since the last one, I promised not to love again
Broken hearted, it was even hard to trust a friend
So I just pretend like life is going good
Never put a smile on, even though I know I should
You got the world, the people in it getting in between us
Why can’t we just agree, like shit it ain’t a damn prenup
That night to remember, I felt like you’re the one
I didn’t wanna tell you, I was never good at speaking up
I want you to be happy, happy that you’re with me
I got your back, don’t even worry bout supporting me
My visions getting blurry and life’s getting distorted
I’m always in the studio, work and recording
Don’t need to prove it, I need you to take care
Wondering if you think you’re too good to stay here
[Verse 2]
When I look at you I see a different kind of beauty
Even though you did pursue me but you didn’t see right through me
I’m not a perfect person but you see me perfectly
And I ain’t gotta worry bout you ever hurting me
Build up your confidence, I’ll help you take a stand
I got your back, you and I, that’s my greatest plan
I’m who I am today and I got no regrets
And what we built for us is something that I won’t forget
In this world, if there was more love I would give more
I’m glad you weren’t the type to judge what I live for
Every show I go to, gotta deal with the assumption
Of what the ppl perceive, try to brush it off like it’s nothing
I look forward to every trip, and I do it for the music
But when I’m gone, my excuse is that I’m coming home to you quick
But let me do my thing with this dream I’m gonna pursue
I would hate to ever hurt you and patience is a virtue
- J. Reyez ft. Lydia Paek - There For You
There’s always a little truth behind every “just kidding.”
A little knowledge behind every “I don’t know.”
A little emotion behind every “I don’t care.”
A little love behind every “I hate you.”
A little uneasiness behind every “I’m okay.”
A little pain behind every “forget it.”
A little fear behind every “leave me alone.”
A little hope behind every “goodbye.”
And a little “something” behind every “nothing.”
“When I look back, it was the people I cared about most deeply that ended up hurting me most. Makes me wonder though; is it really because they gave me greater scars? Or did I inflict the pain upon myself by naively expecting that they, of all people, wouldn’t ever be bad to me?”

[TAEYANG] No no no no more tomorrow
no no no no more tomorrow
[TABLO] You can’t just,
Receive because love gives
Go away because time walks
Live on because a man breathes
[TAEYANG] Baby there’s no tomorrow
I’m stopped just like then
The time that’s halted at that last moment; for you its just a yesterday
Baby there’s no no no no no no more tomorrow
[TABLO] Till you come back everyday is yesterday
[TAEYANG] Baby there’s no no no no no no more tomorrow
[TABLO] The memory that tore my heart tears calendar
And wanes like the sun. I live pretending to have forgotten you
Still, my world is the same; it’s just without you
People tell me I’ll just laugh about it when I will be looking back
Why do they jabber on—i don’t want to hear—when its even hard for me to turn
Back my gaze from your direction
Don’t say, “the sun will rise tomorrow”
The morning would be darker than your darkest of nights
“The soil will harden after a rain,” it will be stifling relief than
Time for worrying with you
It’s all wrong.
It would be spring for you again, but my season won’t change
Even if my heart sprouts again,
I’ve got no tomorrow.
[TAEYANG] Baby there’s no
No tomorrow I’m stopped just like then
The time that’s halted at that last moment; for you its just a yesterday
Baby there’s no no no no no no more tomorrow
[TABLO] Till you come back everyday is yesterday
[TAEYANG] Baby there’s no no no no no no more tomorrow
[TABLO] They tell me I look better than when I used to be with you,
but it’s just hollowed-out dead smile.
They can breathe a sigh of relief, but my breaths are tightening.
The smile can’t fool just me. Yeah, I did get a bit normal.
My heart became a burden so I emptied a lot of it.
I’m gonna go crazy please stop all those consolations that doesn’t even come near my ears
Saying that you forget a love with another love
It would be a relationship even more lonely than a break-up.
Saying that time will solve everything
Sure, I know now,
You can’t just,
Receive because love gives
Go away because time walks
Live on because a man breathes
[TABLO & TAEYANG] No no more tomorrow no no more tomorrow
Till your come back no no
No more tomorrow till you come back no no
No more tomorrow baby there’s no tomorrow I’m stopped just like then
The time that’s halted at that last moment; for you its just a yesterday
[TAEYANG] Baby there’s no no no no no no no more tomorrow
[TABLO] Till you come back everyday is yesterday
[TAEYANG] Baby there’s no no no no no no no more tomorrow
[TABLO] Till you come back everyday is yesterday
[TAEYANG] Baby there’s no no no no no no no more tomorrow
[TABLO] Till you come back everyday is yesterday
[TAEYANG] Baby there’s no no no no no no no more tomorrow
