You have an idea, a new and brilliant idea. But then when you actually sit down to write, you find that no creative juices are flowing out onto those blank pages. Suddenly the long, grueling process of trying to write but utterly failing begins. This process can be summed up in thirteen steps, all portrayed by our favorite Disney characters:

1. A New Idea Has Come To You

2. You Sit Down To Write Out Your Creative Brilliance

3. You Try To Pound Out That Brilliant Idea But Nothing Happens

4. You Stare At the Screen So Long Your Eyes Hurt

5. You Write A Couple Of Lines And Think They Are Genius

6. But You Read Over Them And Realize They Are In Fact Terrible

7. It Has Been A Couple Hours So You Decide To Take A Break

8. And Then Get Some Food

9. And Then Watch Some Netflix

10. And Dance A Little

11. After A While You Finally Go Back To Your Computer And Say A Silent Prayer

12. You Stare For A Little While Longer

13. Then Suddenly The Idea Returns And You Start Writing!

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.

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.
