Being a one is a feeling we all know too well. As the year progresses, my schedule seems to get busier as well as those in my surrounding life. I have been finding myself spending a lot of time alone which has always been such a bitter sweet thing for me. Time alone can be refreshing, however, at times my mind starts to wonder into lonely apprehensions. I find myself a bit agitated not being surrounded by others constantly but Don't get me wrong, I do believe it is healthy to have time dedicated to yourself. So what happens when you find yourself spending time with me, myself, and I?

Explore

Take a drive, walk outside, lay in the grass. Have no exact destination but happiness. Explore not only the world around you but explore yourself and your hobbies. Take in your surroundings and the beauty of it will find you.

Relax

There is no harm in taking care of yourself. Take a long bath or even just lounge on the couch with a cup of tea. Take full deep breaths and exhale the darkness in your life.

Be positive

If you think, positive you act positive. Inspire yourself when there is not anyone there to inspire you. Rather than dwelling on yourself and your negativities, talk yourself up and think about the things you are looking forward too in life

Create

There is a creative spark in all of us. Wether you're creating art or cooking yourself a healthy and beautiful meal, constantly think about your creativeness and all the things you can conquer as an individual

Spending time alone can be just the cure you need sometimes. Being by myself grows my comfortably of who I am as an individual. Instead of morning your time alone make time to make it sacred.

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.
