51 sad break up quotes

So you're going through a breakup and you think the world is falling apart. When in reality, there are a bunch of things that suck, there are things that don't suck too. Here's a list of things that don't suck about your breakup.

1. You get to mingle: This is probably one of the best parts. You get to talk to whoever you want, whenever you want.

2. Everyone is there for you: What's better than everyone offering to buy you food and hanging out with you? Nothing.

3. No one wants to step on your toes: Everyone is so nice to you because they don't want to upset you, it's great.

4. Independence: You get to do whatever you want without worrying about someone else.

5. You get a little stronger with each one: You get to see what you deserve and you get stronger every time it happens.

I'm not saying breakups don't suck, because they do, but there are definitely some things that don't suck about them. You get to do what you want, when you want to. That's the best part. Even though breakups suck, always try to look on the bright side.

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.
