For Anyone Who Feels Alone In An Out-Of-Control World

No one said it would be easy
But it can be done.
In a world where just chaos and guns
Seem to shine in the news more than the morning sun
Blazing a trail of hurt and pain
Leading to more sadness and more disdain

We cry out; where are you God
Why did you leave me? Did you ever shed a tear?
But he's looking us in the eyes, and he says,
I'm right here.
Stop child, stop your tears.
I died for you, so cast away your fears.

No one said it would be easy
But it can be done.
You see God's love is as consistent as the morning sun will come.
Never skipping a day, never expressing regret,
Never complaining that some people tend to forget how unasked it is.
To light up the Earth. Day after day, and even when it goes away
And the moon and the stars take over the sky
'Cuz even on a cloudy day they still shine.
No- you can't see them, so it's easy to forget
But hold onto his promise.
It's not over, not yet.

But your heart beats, it races and it flies,
Out of your chest and into the sky
Filled with black holes ready to swallow
Your hopes and beliefs and all that follows
Slow down.
Take a breath.
As you rest the darkness begins to fester and caress all that you fear
But remember. He's looking us in the eyes, and he says,
I'm right here.

Do you see the stars in the sky? They're beautiful right?
I made them with the same hands I made your eyes.
Do you see the moon hanging perfectly tonight?
I made it with the same hands that created that bump on your nose you do not like.
But believe me, it's beautiful right?
Do you see this whole Earth?
Every detail precise one of my finest works,
The only thing that could compare is each stand of your individual hair,
And every curve and line I put on your body.
These hands do not make mistakes.
You forget that I'm perfect, and that you are fearfully and wonderfully made.

No one said it would be easy,
But it can be done.
So trust in me child, this battle can be won.
Hold fast to me, hold tight with care.
Let go and try to survive that's a dare.
I can make you invincible.
Nothing you touch, nothing thrown your way will be able to puncture
The armor I will wrap around you my dear.
I'm looking at you, and I'm telling you,
I'm right here.

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.
