Dear Future Mr. President,

First of all I would like to say thank you for running for presidency. It by no means is an easy task and I cannot imagine the stressful, endless nights you have encountered through your campaign among being talked about by the whole world. But I have some things I need to get off of my chest (not literally because you of all people would have yet one more comment to make about women and I refuse to be the pit of your "jokes".....)

The situation we as Americans are facing right now reminds of when your good friend is dating that terrible guy that you know is 50 types of bad for her, but she is so in LOVE, she doesn't even realize....... that's truly how I feel about you winning in the election.

America has no clue what they just did. Hopefully (I pray)in four years we will be talking about all of the progress we have made as a country and how we are stronger than ever.......... but right now I think we will be saying the complete opposite.

I cannot fathom how we can have such a negative role-model leading the country. From disrespecting women, gender, disabilities, race, etc. I am utterly disgusted! Sick to my stomach really! I can't see someone who just about insults everyone besides the "superior white male" stereotype.

I really hope that your campaign was a media stunt to gain more air time or to get people's attention because what you say to others HURTS! I hope you truly think and realize the things you are saying and doing make half of the world question how "great" America really is! Being in a different country you are being taken as a joke..... not because you have thought of some ideas or have your own game plan about how you are going to go about things but solely on how you ACT!

YOU are what little boys and girls will look up to for the next four years....... you are suppose to be what other leaders around the world look to for advice or guidance but I do not think those relationships will ever be the same.

Oh yeah..... and about that "plan" you never talked about......I truly hope you have one! Everyone who voted in your favor must have some faith/trust in you to vote you in and not really know what you are going to do the next four years.

But just so were clear, I am not bitter about who won and who lost.... I am just very VERY concerned about the outcome of America. I want to see America be great...... what American wouldn't!? I just hope we take four steps forward and not four or more steps back...... We have come way too far with this country to just throw it away, and I don't believe we need to start being petty now.

So I wish you the best, but you already built the biggest wall with your fellow Americans.... So I guess if you want that wall after all they should go to the man who knows how to build it best!

P.S. Some love and kindness gets you far in this world!

Sincerely,

A Concerned, Young Adult American

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.
