Demi's 'Sober' Relates Too Closely To Those In Trouble

After six years of being Sober from her alcohol and drug abuse Demi relapsed. She wrote her song "Sober" as a way to apologize for her misstep. Although her song is dedicated to her alcohol and drug abuse it can relate to those who struggle with so many disorders.

Demi has publicly discussed all her struggles as openly as she can throughout her treatment the last six years and her songs reflect all her past setbacks and accomplishments. This song in particular can relate to so many people who struggle with substance abuse or even their worse disorders. When I first heard this song it made me think about when i first started self harm. I have now been three years "sober" in self harm. Music has always been determined and interpreted by those who take all that they are and express them in the music they write, play, or listen to.

Demi's song reminds that we are all humans and we all make mistakes. She may be famous but even a celebrity can admit that she needs help. She has become such an icon in showing that those who need help do not need to be afraid to ask for help. Her song "Sober" shows that those in trouble can still find forgiveness in the darkest of places. She addresses her fans in her song and asks for their forgiveness. They have since showed massive support in her recovery and wish her well as she makes brilliant strides into recovery.

This song shows that you can seek forgiveness from others as well as yourself and to promise to get better. Demi's music in general has become an iconic inspiration to everyone all over the world that you can do anything you set your mind to. So to Demi good luck in recovery and thank you for showing that your music can help those who struggle with substance abuse, self harm, or any trouble that comes their way!

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.
