I like to think that in life, there are no coincidences. Everything that happens to you has a reason, and even though it may seem like the end of the world at first, you'll see the benefits in the long run. Don't stress out too much over things; you’ll only end up hurting yourself. Find purpose and strive for success. But always remember to remain balanced. When you stumble upon opportunity, take it. You never know where you’ll end up. Here are 10 reasons why you should take the chance:

1. What if…

You’ll always be wondering what would’ve happened if you had taken the chance. Lose all of your regrets! It’s your time to fly.

2. Your future.

When a life-changing opportunity comes up, take it! Your future self will thank you.

3. Learn to leap!

You’ve been taking baby steps all of your life. Now it’s time to take off! Learn and live and learn and live.

4. You’ve got nothing to lose.

Life doesn’t end until your heart stops beating. While you’re still breathing, take all the risks that you can; it’ll be worth it. Your happiness is the most important thing, and if you take a chance, it’ll never leave.

5. Face your fears.

Rattle your senses by running into what you fear most. Bravery is not the lack of fear, but the strength to stand up to it. Be courageous! You haven’t lived if you’ve based your life on running away from your fears.

6. Life is waiting for you.

What are you waiting for? You can climb any mountain and confront any storm. Just do it! Life is ready for you.

7. Get to know yourself.

Through adventure and some soul-searching you can discover parts of yourself that were previously hidden. Do you truly know who you are? Run and stumble and you’ll learn more about yourself than you ever have.

8. Find your purpose.

Look for the meaning in life and uncover your purpose. The satisfaction in knowing what you’re meant to do is oxygen to your soul.

9. Gain strength.

If you fall, get back up again! Those muscles will get stronger and stronger each time.

10. Fail and succeed.

Through trial and error you will find success. Learn from your mistakes and you’ll get better each time. Have no regrets. Everything is worth falling for in the end.

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.
