8 Feelings We Hate to Feel
Sunflower Storytime

Sometimes saying or feeling what you are experiencing at the moment can be a pain. I know personally, I hate feeling so here's a list of some that make me uncomfortable:

1. Guilt - Nobody can possibly enjoy the pit in your stomach feeling as though you are responsible for something. Talking about it can make you feeling better but some people it can seems like you are dwelling on that experience or emotion.

2. Loneliness - As much as people like to be alone, sometimes we crave people, even in the most basic ways. Feeling another presence or even hearing someone else's voice remind us all that we aren't alone in this big world.

3. Failure - Who wants to hear a story where you didn't get what you want or lost the thing? Well, it is not a bad idea to hear more of these. Hearing about someone else's failure tends to make us feel like it is okay to fail. It is a good reminder that we are going to fail at things in life and that is okay and it important to the life learning process. We aren't immortal and are supposed to fail.

4. Anger - How awkward is it to be angry? We are in this state of irrationality where it is harder to fix the situation at hand? Most commonly refered to as a useless emotion, once anger is let out, life tends to feel a little more bearable.

5. Overwhelmed - How much it sucks to be here in this stressed and struggling state. Feeling as though the world is all on you is terribly unbearable and make all the things you are doing feel a million times harder. Learning how to cope with stress and this feeling is a long process for most.

6. Rejected - After not getting that reply back or someone not feeling the same way, can feel horrible, of course. This state tends to leave a person bitter and a little sad because that thing you wanted to happy is not now. The rejection could have been done in the nicest way but still can leave any person a little raw feeling. A good way to deal with this feeling is to just ride it out for a bit and just give yourself a little break from life.

7. Weak - Personally, this is one of least favorite emotions ever. I hate the idea of someone catching me at a weak time and spilling my emotions all over them. But I know it is a part of life and needs to happen because even strong people feel weak. As I said before we are all human and it is best to just feel these feelings instead of by-passing them.

8. Sadness - Feeling sad is obviously quite sad. The lamenting that needs to be done is important because all feelings are important to life. Nobody likes being sad but it is a natural emotion to get when you don't get a good grade in class or hearing bad news to just feeling kind of bummed out. Give yourelf a break and if you need to cry just do it because would ever tell a friend not to cry? Well sometimes you need to treat yourself like your friend.

Letting all of these hard and complex feeling pass by is important to living a good life because these all are very natural and common to experience.

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.
