Crystals are a girl's best friend.

For me, crystals are a part of my life that help shape who I am on a daily basis. No, I do not mean that I solely rely on the crystals to make me who I am, but I do believe the power they hold within them.

I charge them in the Full Moon, cleanse them within Mother Earth and bring them with me in situations that call for certain crystals.

My collection is rather small, but it is in the process of becoming larger and stronger each day. When I was younger, my Mom introduced my sister and I to crystals. She came back from a trip to Arizona and brought back a citrine crystal necklace for my sister and an amethyst crystal for me. I still have it and hold it dear to my heart. It brought me closer to something that helps define who I am, pushing me to be the person the Universe designed me to be.

My crystals range from Rhodochrosite, Tigers Eye, Smokey Quartz, Opal, Amethyst Geodes, Labradorite prisms, Citrine, Moon Stones, Larimar, Sodalite, Serpentine, as well as countless others. I keep them next to my salt lamp, arranged differently depending on how I feel when I wake up that morning.

Some people think that crystals have no meaning and are pointless, but it is different depending on who you are talking to.

To some, crystals introduce them to a new reality, giving them the ability to escape the corruption of this physical life and create a life of peace, love and serenity. This is why I have grown so attached. Not only are they absolutely gorgeous to look at, but they allow me to see myself and the world around me in a different and more enlightened perspective.

As my collection slowly grows with time, I feel myself escape into the dimension my crystals create for me.

Live life in the brightest colors that the Universe intended it to be lived.

Adore each moment.

Adore the gifts the Universe presents you with.

Adore yourself.

Stay Woke.

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.
