Insecurities Make You Weak

No matter how big or small there will always be something that makes us insecure.

Insecurities Make You Weak

People say all the time that the insecurities you carry are a sign of weakness. I disagree with this statement completely. The insecurities we carry aren't weaknesses. They are a sign of strength and courage that people should embrace.

Insecurities have a wide range. People are insecure about so many different things. For example, some people are insecure about how they dress, or how they look. I've even met people who are insecure in the way they eat food or the way they laugh. With the world becoming so superficial people have lost their ability to embrace their insecurities. Maybe it is due to the fact that social media has made it seem as if people shouldn't have any insecurities and live this "instagrammy life". The problem with this is that we as humans aren't perfect. We all have flaws. As rude as that sounds you and me both have many flaws. Noone is perfect. We are all trying to be as perfect as possible, but it doesn't mean that we have become successful in being completely perfect.

So this is for anyone who needs to hear this. Your insecurities don't define you. No matter what insecurities you have you should embrace them and love yourself regardless. Be less harsh on yourself and enjoy the one life we have to live. Let me repeat again. Be less harsh on yourself and enjoy the one life we have to live.

Trust me, you may think you are not beautiful, or you smile weird, or your feet are too big whatever the insecurity is just remember these insecurities are a way for yourself to compete with no one else but yourself. However, just remember these insecurities mean nothing.

Be yourself. Love yourself. Treat yourself.

Ancient Roman Kings: 7 Leaders of Early Rome

The names and dates of the reigns of the first four kings, as well as the alternation of Sabin and Latin names, are more legendary than historical. The last three kings, of Etruscan origin, have an existence which seems less uncertain.

It is evident that all this is only a legend although archeology shows us little by little that these kings if they did not exist as the ancient history, describes them, have at least in the very Outlines were real as chief of a shepherd’s tribe. The period when kings ruled Rome could estimate at 245 years.

Love Lost

Being the girl that is falling for the boy is never easy.

You constantly text my phone telling me that you want to see me and hang out, even though we may not have sex we cuddle and that’s intimacy in its own. I’m tired of buying you food and being there for you like a girlfriend when you consistently tell me you aren't ready for a girlfriend. I am constantly feeling I’m getting slapped in the face because I’m doing all these things and getting nothing in return. Every day I feel myself liking you more which is just crazy because why would I even waste my time liking someone there isn’t a future with. I just want you to be honest with me and with yourself, tell me how you feel from your heart, stop just saying you aren’t ready. You are wasting time telling me you aren’t ready because while you are “getting ready” some guy somewhere else is telling me that he likes me and thinks I’m beautiful and wants to date me. I’m not asking for much, but I at least want exclusivity because you ask me for all these things but in return you give me nothing.

Pretty Little Liars

From reading the books in eighth grade to watching the television show all throughout high school, "Pretty Little Liars"basically defined my teenage existence. I was completely and totally obsessed on all accounts. However, even though I loved the fact that the books and the show are starkly different, there are simply just some ways in which the books are much better. Let's take a look:

Recently I was blessed to be a counselor at a wonderful camp, secluded in a cornfield somewhere in Virginia. I consider myself to be a seasoned camp counselor, as I have not only been a camper for most of my life but have been privileged enough to work multiple camps with all kinds of different facilities. I have worked camps with multi-thousand dollar facilities, with zip lines, rock walls, ropes courses, and boats. I have worked at camps with amazing water sports, camps with paintball, camps with canoes and paddle boats and floating blobs or trampolines in the middle of the water. I have worked at camps with in ground pools and camps without any pools, and even some camps with go-karts. I've had problem kids, kids who refuse to listen to anything I say, kids who sneak out after lights out to meet a significant other, and kids who are every camp counselors dream.

The United Nations (UN) has been in existence since June of 1945. Since then, the world has come together to work on and solve some of the harshest problems that face the Human Race. Be it children in societal ills like Human Trafficking, natural issues like Deforestation, or issues of extreme poverty, the UN has worked together in an attempt to make it a better place for us all. It's the only organization in the history of the world to bring people together in a willing, peaceful way; a feat that not even the League of Nations could do in the Post- WWI era. Why was it that one organization failed, and the other one is still going strong, 72 years later?
