I Have Some Advice For The Confused

Hello Beautiful/Handsome,

You're clearly reading this article for a reason. Either this article applies to you, or you're just curious what I have to say. I don't have all the answers to everything that happens in someone's life, and that's not why I'm writing this article. I am writing this to scratch the surface of some advice that I think will help you when you're confused.

If it's about a significant other.

It may be a boyfriend or a girlfriend, maybe just someone you "talk" to. Do what your heart tells you to do. Don't do something that will make someone else happy, you always need to do what makes you happy, first. Even if it may hurt someone's feelings, they will get over it someday. They may not get over it today, but they will someday. Your happiness will always come at a cost, I am sorry about that. In the end, your happiness is what is always important, as long as you're not physically hurting someone or hurting someone in a sense of abuse.

If it's about your family.

They have always been there for you, so be careful with what you say. Depending on what the situation is, remember to always stay calm. Getting angry never helped anyone. Take a deep breath and think about what will happen if you freak out. Always think before you say something, you can't take it back after it has been said. The last thing to remember is that they love you and want what is best for you. Of course, this all depends on the situation.

If it's about college/school.

We are all confused. You're not alone. Always know that you have people to support you and help you through whatever you're struggling with. Please, if you're struggling, take advantage of all that the campus has to offer. The people on campus are paid to help you. They have degrees, some of course being students (but still helpful), just so they can help you. Take advantage of everything that college/school has to offer. You got this!

If it has to do with friends.

This is a hard one, every situation is different. You might have that friend that has separation anxiety. The friend that on your case 24/7. The friend that is just really getting on your nerves. When it comes to friends, and this will sound bad, but they come and they go. If they're not good for you, then you need to find some new friends. If to you, they're worth the trouble, then keep working through whatever is going on. Always be honest with them. Honesty is always the best policy. They might not accept it right away, but they will be happy you were honest.

No, I don't know all the answers. I wish I did. I fall in this category all the time, being confused that is. Life is confusing. Always fight for what you believe in, never give up and lastly, remember you got this!

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.
