You stare at your reflection in the mirror on the wall, menacingly. You don’t recognize yourself without her. You can’t stand to look at yourself without her. You’ve told yourself time and time again that you don’t need her. That you’re better off without her, but you do not believe this yourself. It is a need that has taken over your whole being. You can’t fight it and you wonder what’s the point.

You explore her with the tips of your roughed fingers, spreading her out evenly in front of you. You tap against her softly with the sides of a razor, readying yourself for her control. You take her in.

She’s inside you.

You can feel her roaming around, rattling your brain as she tries to take over every inch of you.

You close your eyes and let her take you. Vibrations. You can feel the vibrations of every nerve, every muscle and every cell in your body bowing themselves to her power.

She speaks to you softly.

You listen carefully, “Open your eyes. Go.”

And with no hesitations…you do.

There’s no way you cannot tell that this is a concept of “love,” a concept of “trust,” a relationship you have developed with her. You pity the naiveness, shaming yourself for believing something like that could even exist beyond her, for anyone.

It never does.

It never will.

…could it?

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.
