better

dear Jesus,

You are better than taylor swift, owning a lot of sparkly things, and feeling like i could have helped every girl in america get through a breakup if only i played guitar well.

You are better than glee, performing, and the showbiz career that i think i might've been able to have had i taken singing lessons young and moved to l.a. at fourteen.

You are better than gossip girl, having everyone talk about me constantly, and thinking i could've worn supremely fashionable clothes to overwhelming trendy events if only i were born rich on the upper east side. (and yes, You are better than blair's headbands.)

You are better than harry potter, being constantly placed in dangerous situations with my best friends, and possessing an intense amount of magic, courage, and love to save everything that is important.

sometimes i don't act like You are more important.
but i wanted to make sure You know that You are.

sincerely, laura

ps. by better, i mean much much much infinitely better.
