To the girls who meddle,

At first I would expect myself to be mad at you. Hate your guts. But to tell you the truth, I genuinely feel so sorry for you. The fact that you have to meddle into other girls’ love lives because your own is slowly falling apart is ever so saddening. I wish to ask you why you do it, why you find so much joy in making sure that no girl works out with the boy she wants, but really, I’d be wasting my time as I already know the answer. You’re miserable. Being that, your hope is that no other girl can feel the love and happiness you so desperately yearn for but highly lack. You meddle because the boy you wanted chose someone else over you and that kills you. Instead of allowing him to be happy with someone else, you try to ensure that that never happens. In the midst of feeling sorry for you, and yes, having some anger towards you, I more or less pray for you. I pray that you don’t spend your whole life obsessing over the same boy. I pray that you let him be happy. I pray that you let others be happy. I pray that you find someone who does make you happy so your crime of, what I will call, “serial home wrecking,” can end. Along with praying for you, I wish to give you a piece of advice: grow up. I realize that is a harsh sounding comment and I mean for it to be. I need this one piece of simple advice to get through to you. You need to grow up as you move on through your life. Whether it be going into or out of high school, into or out of college, moving to a new place or switching jobs. Wherever your life takes you, you need to grow up and leave other people and their happiness alone.

I tell you that because if you try to rob the wrong person of their love, you will end up regretting it. Not everyone will just walk away and forget it and let you win. People are capable of infinite things that you may not want to have happen. Happiness, not even in a relationship sense but in all senses, is becoming such a rare possession in today’s society and you have zero, and I mean zero right to take that from anyone. Focus on yourself and your happiness and you will go so much further in your life than when you meddle in other people’s lives for your own sake. Think about others as the world does not evolve around you. You deserve as much as happiness as anyone and yes, you should be selfish about obtaining it, but you cannot steal it to get it and think everything will be perfect after that. Your happiness, your real, earned, passionate happiness will come when you least expect it, I promise you that. Just be patient. If you know you are a girl who meddles, which you should because your actions are impossible to be unintentional, here’s what I’m going to leave you with. What if you fell in love with someone and another girl tried to rip him away from you simply because she felt she could. Would you like that?

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.
