10 Hopes For 2021

"When you have lost hope, you have lost everything. And when you think all is lost, when all is dire and bleak, there is always hope."

Bring on a better 2021! We all had a stressful 2020 - BLM movement, the pandemic, celebrity deaths, job losses, - the list goes on. Here are some hopes I came up with for 2021.

1. The Pandemic will die down and vaccines will be administered more

Stay safe, get vaccinated, follow protocols, and this too shall pass and hopefully we will have a normal summer.

2. That Black lives are taken more seriously

Seriously, all lives matter - but stop attacking Black individuals, and disabled individuals, and elderly individuals - everyone deserves dignity and respect.

3. That people get better paying jobs in hopes of the pandemic ending

The fact that before and during the pandemic people get low paying jobs - there needs to be better paying jobs

4. That individuals can get the education needed to succeed

Education is expensive - I hope people who wants to get education have the funds and help needed to succeed

5. That we find more solutions for battling global warming

Solutions I hope are on there way - and I know some are already here - we need to act more on them

6. That people can afford health care

I have struggled trying to afford my own health care when I got laid off work - it's too expensive and things need to change- I hope more people can afford health care plans and they are made more affordable - where people don't have to live without health insurance as well

7. That police officers don't get attacked but that they don't attack innocent people as well

We need to respect offices but they need to respect individuals. No one is netter than anyone else.

8. That no one goes to prison for being falsely accused

I can't believe we live in a world where people go to prison for not even committing a crime. I hope the justice system steps up their game in positive ways.

9. That no one kills oneself due to hardships in society

Mental health issues are REAL and societal problems are REAL - We need to help each other out so no one should feel like they need to end their life or feel helpless

10. That the economy goes back up, especially for small businesses

SUPPORT SMALL BUSINESSES! They need to make a living.

I really HOPE 2021 is better - I hope everyone stays happy, healthy, safe, warm, and all the above.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
