They Don't Deserve To Be In Your Life

Realize that you're better off without them.

They Don't Deserve To Be In Your Life
Ana Santos

There will be many people who come into your life for all the wrong reasons, and they will destroy you if you're not wise enough to know that they shouldn't be part of your existence anyway. It's all up to you to recognize these toxic people and not allow them to make you feel any less than what you are, and what you deserve. They will try to belittle you, your dreams and your goals because they are insecure and unsure with the person they are themselves. They will not motivate you or encourage you to be the best you can be because they are actually secretly hoping for your downfall all the while. They will do you wrong, then deny the fact that they did such a thing, and will even justify it to no end because they will never be able to admit when they're wrong. To them, it must always be your fault and if you're not strong enough, they can even make you believe it too.

Your life begins the moment you come up with an answer to these two questions; what kind of life do I want to live and who do I want to be? If you aspire to live a successful life full of joy and happiness, then you need stop allowing this kind of negativity from these kinds of people, into your life. They have no business tearing you down. They have no business interfering with your plan, your goals- cut them off. Love yourself enough to let them go; realize your self-worth and how you don't deserve what they are giving you. You will feel as if you lost eighty pounds of dead weight after you have, and you'll feel capable of doing anything you put your mind to.

Who do you want to be? If you want to be a good person who has not become bitter over the fact that someone has made you such, cut that person off. If you want to live happily and successfully, you need to let this person go willfully or such a thing will not be possible. It will be an uphill battle and they will do nothing, but drag you down to the level they feel they're stuck at. You'll never grow, you'll never accomplish all that you want to all because they say so. You'll feel horrible about yourself all because you might be afraid to lose that person, but why? It doesn't matter how long you've known them. They have done nothing to show you that they're afraid of losing you. You simply have to consider yourself, and being selfish in this situation is a good thing; a great thing.

And you don't have to explain yourself. You don't have to explain why you don't want to be involved with them anymore and why you don't want them in your life because odds are, they already know. They just refuse to admit they were wrong and refuse to apologize, but that's okay because now you know they were never meant to be apart of your life anyway, that they never deserved to be there in the first place.

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.
