Congratulations, You Played Yourself!

Alright ladies & gentlemen of all social media platforms, boy do I have news for you! Other peoples' opinions on you are NOT your business!
Now, I apologize for the tough love... But I'm about to tell you why you just shouldn't care about what other people say about you on the web.

#10 - Ask yourself: Does this person really know me? Have they sat down with you for coffee? Have they had endless conversations about your real life happenings? Have they even picked at your brain?

Maybe they texted you or you've met them in person before. But no one knows you like you know yourself.


#9 - You should feel flattered your life is important enough to be in there personal tabloids. Look at you - you're basically a Kardashian to these people. Go you! If you block them, they'll find a way to look still because you really are that fabulous.

Screenshot my tweets for your cute little group messages, keep hating honey, while I keep shining!

#8 - They will use the messiest of rumors against you. All that he-said-she-said drama will some how make its way back to you. Sometimes they'll even use your own posts against you.... I might tweet "I'm so over this." But let's be honest, your girl is just over ChickFilA being closed on Sunday's.

Go ahead and use rumors - I want to see receipts!


#7 - Funny how these people "hate" you but you can find yourself on the frequently visited section on their safari page. What kind of haters stalk you? Oh, that's right... FANS!

Thanks for being my number one fan!


#6 - How about the fact it's always the people you low key thought were down to earth people you could get along with?

Congratulations, you played yourself - I thought you were cool, but you're kind of a loser. *Sigh*


#5 - They actually have nothing better to do with their sad little lives. Isn't there better things to do than bully people behind a screen? Is this really your life? Go plant a tree, pet your cat, or tell your grandma you love her.

I'm sure Gramgram wouldn't be proud to see you calling people ugly and fat online.

#4 - They think you're going to get a rise from you - basically you should just be laughing at how sad it must be to be them. Let's be real, those poor excuses for insults are jokes enough.

Is that REALLY all that you've got?


#3 - 110% of the time these people are JEALOUS of you or something you've got! Most of the time it's happiness, they just want you to drown in their misery with them.

HAHA JOKES ON YOU, I CAN SWIM!


#2 - What are you even being "insulted" on? "Oh she's fat" - Uh, yeah! I make money so I eat whatever I please! "She's so ugly" - Are you dating me? Do I look like I'm trying to impress you? Nope, try again!

LAST BUT NOT LEAST - THE MAIN REASON YOU SHOULDN'T CARE ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE SAY ABOUT YOU...

#1 - They're wrong.

You're hella cute. You're fabulous. You're imperfectly perfect. But most importantly, you're YOU! Nothing anybody says about you should ever change who you are.

So just remember, the next time someone bullies you or talks about you via the web, you're awesome and they're wrong.

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.
