Every morning when I wake up, I want to hear or read positive words and some piece of good news. Whether the news comes on the TV in the morning, in the newspaper I read over breakfast or on the radio in the car on my drive to work, it is important to start your day with some positivity. Often I find the much needed and uplifting words in the form of quotes. I keep a quote book by my bed and start each morning by reading a page.

Here are some of my favorite quotes that will hopefully put you in a good mood, no matter the time of day.

7. "There is no royal road to anything. One thing at a time, all things in succession. That which grows fast, withers as rapidly. That which grows slowly, endures." - Josiah Gilbert Holland

9. "Be somebody who makes everybody feel like a somebody." - Unknown

10. "I will breathe. I will think of solutions, I will not let my worry control me. I will not let my stress level break me. I will simply breathe. And it will be okay. Because I don't quit." - Shayne McClendon

11. "Never stop doing your best just because someone doesn't give you credit." - Unknown

12. "When you arise in the morning, think of what a precious privilege it is to be alive - to breathe, to think, to enjoy, to love." - Marcus Aurelius

13. "The sun is a daily reminder that we too can rise again from the darkness, that we too can shine our own life." - S. Ajna

14. "Thinking positively isn't about expecting the best to happen every time, but accepting that whatever happens is the best for the moment." - Unknown

15. "If you see something beautiful in someone, speak it." - Ruthie Lindsey

Remember every day is a fresh start! Go out and seize the day! Make it your own and I promise you won't regret it.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

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.

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.

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.
