11 Quotes To Always Remember

Everyone has those moments when they feel like they have hit rock bottom. When that happens, sometimes it's hard to bounce back. I like to read some of my favorite quotes to remind myself that I really am the person who I know myself to be when I run into situations like that. If you're feeling less than ordinary, read these quotes to remind yourself that you truly are extraordinary!


1. "Never make someone a priority when all that you are to them is an option." - Maya Angelou

You deserve better than that!


2. "Give, but do not allow yourself to be used. Love, but do not allow your heart to be abused. Trust, but don't be naive. Listen to others, but don't lose your own voice." - Unknown

Never forget that you are the most important person in your life.


3. "Your value does not decrease based on someone's inability to see your worth." - Unknown

If they don't see your worth, then you don't need them in your life.


4. "You don't need to waste your time on someone who only wants you around when it fits their needs." - Unknown

That is the last kind of person that you need in your life.


5. "Destiny is for losers. It's just a lame excuse for letting things happen to you instead of making them happen" - Blair Waldorf

Your future is in your hands. Do everything you can to make it wonderful.


6. "In the end, we only regret the chances we didn't take" - Unknown

This one is cheesy, I know, but it's actually true. You took a chance and if it didn't work out then that's fine because at least now you know.


7. "One of the happiest moments in life is when you find the courage to let go of what you can't change." - Unknown

Some things can't be changed and that's OK.


8. "Often, it's the deepest pain which empowers you to grow into your highest self." - Unknown

Getting hurt is never fun, but it can lead to something so much better.


9. "Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind on the present moment." - Buddha

There's no time like the present!


10. "I think fearless is having fears, but jumping anyway." - Taylor Swift

Be bold and live life fearlessly like Taylor Swift.


11. "I'm not a stop along the way. I'm a destination." - Blair Waldorf

All hail Queen B, this girl just gets it.

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
