Hey readers! I just wanted to give a bit of encouraging personification this week. There are goals that you may have set for yourself, whether new or expanding on the old. I want you to visualize one of these goals; how does it make you feel when you see yourself accomplishing it? Now, take this emotion and imagine what it would look like (an animal, a light, etc.) With simply picturing your dreams realized, you can expand and build your inner strength. I hope all of your aspirations come true and allow all of the positive feelings to guide you. Keep dreaming and reaching for all things!



Red is the passionate drive I have

It molds itself like a high flame, never ending

Though confused for anger, I use the fire to move ahead

Blue is the calm I keep

It washes over like tide seeking to cool, relaxing always

Though mistaken for sadness, I use the waves to cleanse doubt

Green is the spiritual energy I preserve

It creates nature and the world around me, encompassing guidance

Though associated with jealousy, I use the lush surroundings to harvest love

Orange is the consistency I wield

It forms in the might of candles, sturdy and sure

Though called demur, I use the wax to carve my own destiny

Purple is the loyalty I possess

It finds itself home in the veins of my being, regal and secure

Though seen as mysterious, I use my life force to be ambitious

Many colors around mean different things

No matter what they are to you, they are there

To help live your aspirations fully

Colors sound simple and juvenile, but I assure you

They provide fullness to complete your vision

They ask nothing but define everything

Your world of dreams is as valid as the colors

They make perfect sense just as the rainbows in the sky

I pray that all of the colors you choose

Fill you with the best things

Take you to new heights

Inspire deeper meaning

Complete who you are and where you want to go

Colors, let them shade beautifully

Your soul

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.
