Christina Grimmie: Moments To Remember

This past week, we have sadly lost another beautiful soul to gun violence. Christina Grimmie, an extremely talented musician who had her start on YouTube and later became a contestant on The Voice, was shot and killed at a post concert autograph signing in Orlando, Florida. The fact that we have lost someone who promoted love and light to this horrific act is tragic, and definitely shows that something needs to be done about guns and who carries them.

While this is a very sad time, it is important we remember Christina for the positivity she has brought into this world. Here are a few moments that marked a positive change in her career.

Her Youtube Days

YouTube is where Christina gained most of her following. Her videos were typically her talented singing or positive words of encouragement. This was definitely an important part of Christina's life that many will remember.


Opening for Selena Gomez

Long before her days on The Voice, Christina joined Selena Gomez on both the We Own The Night Tour and Stars Dance tour. The two became best friends while touring together. This was a big jump in her career.


Journey on The Voice




Her phenomenal audition where all judges turned their chairs was just the beginning for Christina Grimmie and her journey on The Voice. While she had a following before coming on the show, this really let her talent be shown to the whole world. She ended the show in the top three, but this was just the beginning for her career and how far she would go.

While Christina was not with us long enough, she has definitely impacted the lives of many. Her talent and positivity helped make the world a bit brighter. She will definitely be missed.

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.
