10 Quotes You Didn't Know You Needed

I quite often find myself on Tumblr scrolling through quotes so here is a list of 10 quotes that I don't think anyone realizes that they need to read until they read them - some you may recognize and some you may not. So enjoy!

1. "And one day, you'll be in a better place. Your thoughts won't be so loud, breathing won't feel like a really complicated gym workout, and the idea of actually living life will make sense."

2. "Consider that you radiate. At all times. Consider that what you're feeling right now is rippling outward into a field of is-ness that anyone can dip their oar into. You are felt. You are heard. You are seen. If you were not here, the world would be different. Because of your presence, the universe is expanding."

3. "I believe in the sun even when it is not shining. I believe in love even when I cannot feel it. I believe in God even when he is silent."

4. "The days when you love yourself will be the best days of your life. Love radiates from being to being like an unstoppable force, loving yourself will result in you loving others. Find peace with who you are and how you feel, accept how you manifest and acknowledge the beauty in others. Loving yourself is the best beautiful thing you can do, for yourself and the universe."

5. "Be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves, like locked rooms and like books that are now written in a very foreign tongue. Do not seek the answers, which cannot be given to you because you would not be able to live them. And the point is, to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps you will then gradually, without noticing it, live along some distant day into the answer."

6. "She stopped midway, sighed softly, and said: I believe that there is no such thing as a coincidence. Every encounter happens for a reason. But I don’t think that it’s as simple as a blessing or a lesson. With some people, it’s a little bit of both. Their lives cross yours once and leave you speechless wondering about them for the rest of your life. Did meeting them make you better, or worse? You never know. But one thing is certain: that you come out of it different from before."

7. "The true mark of maturity is when somebody hurts you and you try to understand their situation instead of trying to hurt them back."

8. "So, I guess we are who we are for a lot of reasons. And maybe we’ll never know most of them. But even if we don’t have the power to choose where we come from, we can still choose where we go from there. We can still do things. And we can try to feel okay about them."

9. "She is a work of art that is under appreciated. A beautiful storm of uncontrollable strength. The heart of a hero, unnoticed but essential. A dream you could only hope for. Chaotic mind and broken soul but perfect in the way she strolls. Silent and still she bring the strongest to a stand still, whether she is sleeping or reading her presents is uplifting. She is the one you can turn to the one who understands she will help and guide you with no regard for her plans. Kind but reserved you know there's more, a half smile with a frown shes always messing around. She knows I love her. I know shes the one. I’ll always be there when the world too much and she is done."

10. "Stop setting yourself on fire for someone who stays to watch you burn."

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.
