Always Follow Your Heart. Your Instincts Are Almost Always Right
Google

Do you ever second guess yourself that you might be wrong about something, when your brain is telling you that you are right? Are you one to struggle with tests because you’re always stuck between two answers’ and can’t decide for the life of you, which one sounds like the right one to pick? Well, you should always go with your gut and pick the best answer you can think of. Not just about tests, but also about relationships, and life in general. If you’re stuck in between two really great answers, people, animals, etc., don’t keep going back and forth because it will only get you to replay in your head over and over. If you keep thinking about one question with two really good close answers, go for the one that makes the most sense.

Your mind could be telling you one thing, that your heart could be telling you the opposite, but it’s usually the way to go. For example, you could be talking to someone for a while, your mind thinks that everything is going really well, but your heart could be reminding you that they haven’t been the same for a while, so something could be up or not feeling right. In this case, follow your heart and understand that maybe that person didn’t feel the same connection that you felt. Your mind tells you a lot of things.

Although you should always follow your heart, following your mind isn’t all that bad of an idea either. In some cases, you need to think fast and not take the time to work around what is best and what isn’t. sometimes it is all about taking that big risk and that’s where your mind would be the right path to take, but if you can, always go with what your heart is telling you. It’s almost always the right way to go.

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.
