an open letter to the person I no longer recognize
https://www.azula.com/ocean-quotes-tattoos-2499986333.html

6 months ago you seemed put together. Loving yourself and your family. You seemed to almost have it all figured out. But somewhere along the lines something switched. You became distant and your words became hurtful. Your heart became cold and your mind started to become lost.

You began to hurt the ones who loved you more than anything. I watched you push away anything that ever meant a thing to you. As I watched in the distance I could see it coming, you falling apart again. But this time I had no idea that I wouldn't be able to fix it. This time I no longer recognized you. I'm no longer the person you come to for help, and you are no longer the person I seek when I need someones protection.

Im curious, did you mean to change? Did you mean to throw away everything you built while you were better? How did you become this person that I no longer recognize? You are hurting and it's very noticeable because you are hurting everyone around you as you continue to change.

Will you ever be who I need you to be again? Who our family needs you to be? Or will you always just be who you want to be all for yourself? To the person I no longer recognize, I miss you.

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.
