A Quote That Inspires Me

There are a lot of wonderful quotes that can make you think about your outlook in life and who you are as a person.

A quote that really inspired me is, “One kind word can change someone's entire day". I like this quote a lot because the minute I read it I removed how important it is to be kind to others. I believe how other people treat you and act towards you has a huge affect on your day and how you feel as a person. One mean word can ruin your whole day or week. But when someone says something nice to you even if it's just a simple complement it will insistently make your day better and makes you really happy.

Why not lift people up, than bring them down? Everyday we decide for ourselves what kind of person we want to be and it's important that we have a positive impact on people rather than a negative one. So next time you see somebody, even if it's a stranger say hello and say something nice to them.

People like to feel valued and appreciated. I know that if someone did a simple thing like say hello to me or open the door for me it would immediately cheer me up. We never know what people are going through and it's important to remember that, if someone says something hurtful to you just imagine what they may be going through to say something mean to somebody else. We never know what circumstances people are going through so always be kind to everyone.

So I challenge you to go out of your way and do a random act of kindness for a stranger or somebody in your life that means a lot to you.

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.
