We Are All Misfits

Even though I didn't see how God was going to use me in my circumstances, Christ knew exactly how things were going to turn out.

We Are All Misfits

So during my first hour class, I thought my teacher came up with a really good point and wanted to join in on the movement. We're all misfits. We all have our own desires, and stories of how we got here. But do we realize that those stories and desires just might be the very thing that impacts another person's life?

At first I didn't think so. I thought that my stories weren't as special and creative as everyone else's. But that's the beauty of it. Even though I didn't see how God was going to use me in my circumstances, Christ knew exactly how things were going to turn out. Because it was his plans from the beginning.

I think as Christians we tend hold on to things that we don't want other people to know about or hear about and it may seem okay at first but, once you get out of the bubble you're in. You'll realize that you are not alone and that there are many other people surrounding you going through the same thing.

It leaves me wondering sometimes how difficult things are for other people and how they handle it compared to how we handle situations in our life's daily. Because let's face it, there is always going to be somebody out there that is hiding something that we don't know about. That's why it's always good to pray not just for the people, but for anyone else that is going through something in their life's that may seem impossible now, but in the future will get better.

So it's okay to be a Misfit even when you think you're not one. There's always a story worth telling and a message to be heard.

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.
