An Apology

A simple writing with words I should have said a long time ago.

An Apology
Libreshot

I am not a writer.

I am not someone that enjoys sharing all of my secrets.

I am not the person that I want to be.

In school, I wasn't a perfect friend. I went through some hard times and didn't always react the way I should have.

I made some mistakes and did some really bad things.

I was constantly changing because I didn't know myself. I didn't know who I wanted to be.

I wish I could go back and change things. I wish I could go back and fix problems I let slide. I wish I could go back and make myself a better person at a younger age.

I hurt so many people because other people hurt me.

I wasn't a bully, but I wasn't always a good friend.

I regret many things and don't understand why I did things the way I used to.

They say kids will be kids, and that we will mature and grow up eventually.

They never say how maturing and growing up will cause you to not think straight.

To make decisions that seem right at the time, but then 5 seconds later you realize the huge mistake you made.

They don't tell you how hard it will be to look back at your life.

They don't tell you how hard it is to turn your life around.

Even good people have things they wish they could change. Even the worst people can still find something good in their life.

Looking back, I really wish that I could say I was sorry to certain people.

To the people that changed my life, and then disappeared from my life because of one stupid thing.

To the people that made me who I am today as I took them for granted.

I just wish I could say, I'm sorry.

I am so, so sorry.

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.
