A few of my favorite things.

Poetry On Odyssey: My Favorite Things

A few of my favorite things...

Scalding hot baths with soft lighting and bubbles.

Kisses on my shoulder with arms wrapped around my waist.

Kitty cats laying on my lap and purring.

A book that forces me to keep turning the pages.

An ocean that softly laps the shore and makes me human again.

Running my fingers through his soft curls.

Cruise ships with a deck party and a soft breeze.

Pool days with the smell of sunscreen and the taste of fresh fruit.

Sleepovers with my best friend, laughing late into the night.

Dessert dates with my best friend in search of the best chocolate cake.

Dance parties with my little sister, hurting ourselves with our insane dance moves.

The Mamma Mia soundtrack playing in the car with the windows down.

Throwback songs being sung at the top of our lungs.

Random 'I love you's.

Butterflies when I haven't seen him in more than 3 hours.

Comments from distant friends on a post.

My mom's hug when I don't feel good, or at any time to be honest.

My dad's voice telling me that I am ok and there is no reason to panic.

Laying my head on my Poppy's shoulder.

Cooking with my Mema.

A hand on my thigh while I am sitting in the passenger seat.

Watching a cheerleader get a new skill.

Having a day to watch my favorite Netflix shows.

Eating popcorn for dinner.

Finding a new key chain to add to my collection.

Finding a spot for a new sticker on my laptop.

My hair curling just perfect for one day.

Doing my makeup right for once.

Getting a good grade.

Getting a haircut.

Tanning in the sun.

Writing in a journal.

Finding jeans that fit just right.

Laughing with my love.

...A few of my favorite things.

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.
