Don't Give Up On Love
odysseyonline.com

It's hard to fall in love again when you been hurt so many times and in your head you're losing control because you want to fall in love again, but you don't want to get your heart broken. Well I'm here to tell you that I know how it feels to want to fall in love or be loved by that special someone, but at the same time you don't want to get hurt.

Throughout life, there are going to be times when you are going to get hurt but that does not mean you should give up on love. Yes, you are going to have to start over and you will have baggage on your shoulder. While you are trying to be strong and carry that baggage, there will be someone who is falling in love with you because of how strong you are. Sometimes when dealing with love and being heartbroken, you will start to doubt yourself and not trust when someone tells you that he or she really likes you and they will never hurt you. Just as to the same person who told you that before, left you with broken heart. Dealing with that will cause you to build a wall and be cold hearted so that you won't get hurt again; but doing that will also cause you to miss out on someone who actually wants to be with you. There's a saying that says, "you have to go throw obstacles to get to where you want to be at in life", so why not make another saying that goes, "I have to go through a process of getting hurt in order to find the person that i am meant to be with despite all the hurt that I've been through in my past". Just remember this when you have an open wound due to a cut, that open wound will soon be a closed because it will have healed over time.

Therefore, throughout time my friend you will heal and you will be okay. If you want to fall in love or be loved and you don't want to trust yourself again then trust someone who will never lie to you ... God.

Remember always love yourself, because if you do not love yourself first then nobody else will.

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.
