Your journey isn't over, it's only just begun.

To the Bewildered, Soul Searching Woman
Morgan Richard Olivier

Here's to the beautiful disaster

The one who has created a war within herself to please and keep peace with the people around her.
She’s been dealt some difficult cards, taken the wrong paths, overcame trials and experienced losses that not only seemed to break her heart but also break her very soul.
Her hindsight haunts her, the future frightens her, so she overanalyzes today.

She may feel fragile, trapped, and consumed by this world but little does she know she is nowhere near defeated.
The numbing discomfort, overwhelming confusion, and the loss of self that was meant to destroy her very being was derailed and is being used to mold her.

What was set out to silence her words, corrode her mind, and rot her soul only awakened her hidden spirit.
She is more empathetic, humble, aware and understanding.
She craves purpose over perfection, authenticity before outside validation, and longs for the feeling of fully accepting herself and experiencing peace.

So let her cry till she has no tears left, disappear into the darkness of her soul, and scream if she has to.
She is releasing her former faults, detoxing from what she thought she knew about herself and the world, and carefully putting the mask away.

There is purpose in her pain for lessons in her lie. There is a burning and alluring passion in her eyes, warmth in her embrace, and compassion in her voice.
She is a child of God, a fighter, a beautiful spirit, and a powerful Queen.

She is YOU.

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.
