If Adele Can Be Fearless, So Can I

No matter how big our fears are, they can be defeated.

If Adele Can Be Fearless, So Can I

Have you ever wondered what its like to be fearless? We all have fears. How we deal with them makes us the strong people we are.

We all have different fears. Some of them are more common than others. For instance, we can be afraid of spiders, or clowns. Overcoming fears is a hard challenge in life to overcome.

Have you ever wondered what your role model or the person that inspires you the most is afraid of? One talented singer I can think of is Adele. I have been listening to her since 2011. Her voice is so amazing and unique. I would have never guessed that she has one of the biggest fears most people can relate to. She has the fear of singing in front of people, or most commonly known as stage fright. She does countless shows all over the world and braces her fear every time. A few years back I learned that she had this fear. It puts a light in me and made me think that no matter how big our fears are they can be defeated. Having a fear does not make you a weak person. Showing people that you are much bigger than your fears, shows that you are strong.

One common quote by Eleanor Roosevelt is "You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, I lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along."

So now take a minute and think about what would have happened if Adele didn't follow her dream of becoming a singer and she let the fear of stage fright run her life. We would never be able to see her in concert or adore her. Since she does overcome her fear every time she sings, she shows her fear who's boss.

If Adele can overcome her fears and become fearless, so can I.

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.
