A Letter To My Sister





Dear Ketsy,

I wanted to say no matter what that you are still bald headed, ugly and have no edges but I still love you. For the past week I’ve heard from so many of your friends and the people you interacted with in your life and I am happy to call you my sister. Being raised to network and accept everyone no matter what was a great trait that you had. Even though you liked to copy what I was doing we had the same mindset when making sure everyone around us was happy before we were happy. The worst part about caring about others before yourself is that you can’t win every battle. Every battle you’re not meant to win. I’ll have my moment to escape but I have to make sure everyone else is good. That is exactly what you would want me to do. 

Everyone misses you and I let them know to just to live life as much as possible. I’ll keep in touch with your bald headed best friends and those people you took as your friends. Those people that searched for a dark place to go to but you took them out of it. Those people that thought they had no one but you just popped up and said, “I am here for you.” I know it will take everyone some time to get adjusted to the fact that you aren’t here but I will make sure no one forgets you. When you would scream “Hey Sis” or “Bestfriend” you annoyed me so much. Steal my food when I clearly had it labeled “Kevin – DON’T TOUCH.” I am trying to figure out how I am going to move on without my twin but I have too. You know me, I am the strong one in the family and I’ll see you again. I can’t even send you my Monday morning motivational texts anymore. I am no Rev Run but you know it was all about staying positive and telling everyone how much you appreciate them in your life. 

We won’t forget you and your friends won’t forget you. I am happy you listened to my philosophy of just laughing as much as you breathe and love as long as you live. I know you enjoyed life and life enjoyed you. I will see you when it’s my time. I love you.

With Love From Your Brother,
Kevin

Things You Should Work On In 2016

Another year has passed and have you accomplished everything you wanted to in 2015? I would have to say I did a lot of things on my bucket list and a couple unexpected things. Another year to make those things a lot better and to improve on myself as an individual. It's all about growing and doing things different then what I did in the previous year. Becoming a lot better then the person I was yesterday.

Be Positive
We all tend to think that all the bad that is happening in the world will continue to happen. Don't allow the negative energy of this world to corrupt your happiness. Things always work out for the better no matter what. Think about all the things that keep you happy and moving forward. Today negative energy will not influence my life. Tomorrow negative energy will remain out my life. Just be positive and love the life you live.

Motivate Yourself
We all look for motivation from others but you should just look at yourself in the mirror and say, "I want to be better then this person in front of me." You always want to be your own competition no matter what. That other person you are watching won't always be available to provide you motivation but you will, so keep pushing forward.

Delete Dead Weight
Time and time again I say you have to get rid of toxic people from your life. If you don't they will forever bring you down and consume your life with negative energy. Remove people from your life who aren't relevant. Keep it cordial but make them aware that you are no longer dealing with the BS they are bringing to the table.

React Differently 
People always expect us to react a certain way when situations happen. Just stop, listen, analyze and react differently. Reacting the same way and achieving the same results should tell you if what you are doing good or bad. When we react differently then we achieve different results, so think outside the box. Be different and do something different.
