To The Person Having A Bad Day, It's Okay

It's okay to have bad days. Everyone has one every once in a while. You are not alone.

You are only human. It's okay to make mistakes. It's okay to be less than perfect. Everyone else is too.

It's okay to cry. Cry a lot if you need to. Your feelings and emotions are valid.

It's okay to do what's best for you. Stay alive. Take some deep breaths. Eat some good food. Drink lots of water. Put on some comfy clothes. Go for a walk. Do whatever it is you need to do. Taking care of yourself is one of, if not, the most important thing you can do.

It's okay to be yourself. Sometimes it's the best thing you can do. Never lose sight of who you are.

I know it's so much easier said than done, but don't be afraid to reach out for help when you need it.

Don't forget about all of the days where everything went right for you. You make a difference in the world.

For those who need to hear it, healing is not linear.

Don't believe everything you think. Sometimes the worst liars we know are ourselves.

Be kind.

Be gentle with yourself. I know you are trying your best. You are stronger and braver than you can imagine. You are so resilient.

Your bad day won't last forever. I promise you that. You will be back to yourself soon enough. Better days are coming for you. Don't give up on yourself. You may not realize it, but you have so many people in your corner who are constantly supporting and rooting for you.

It's okay. Keep your chin up. You are enough. You are loved.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
