14 Things To Remember

14 things to remember:

1. That thing you did that was kind of embarrassing and weird, everyone else forgot about that already.

2. You look fine today. If you can’t notice something on your face standing 6 feet from a mirror then nobody else will either.

3. If you can’t stop thinking about someone or something, read a book, paint your nails or watch a movie. It won’t solve any serious problems but you will feel better.

4. Listen with the intent to understand, not the intent to reply.

5. If you want something, go get it.

6. Drink lots of water, eat lots of fruit, exercise more, go outside, get enough sleep and think positive thoughts.

7. If you don’t ask, the answer will always be no.

8. Throw away the idea of a perfect tomorrow and live in the moment.

9. Stop comparing yourself to others.

10. A beautiful day begins with a beautiful mindset. It’s a privilege to simply be alive and healthy. Start acting like life is a blessing.

11. Act the way you’d like to be and soon you’ll be the way you’d like to act.

12. You will change. You’re not the same person you were two years ago. You’re not even the same person you were five minutes ago and that’s okay. Especially if you don’t like the person you were five minutes ago.

13. You don’t have to open the curtains if you don’t want to.

14. Being happy is the most important thing.

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.
