Don’t Let The Worst People Put You Down
Sierra Wolford


Never let people put you down so easily. Shine bright! Fight back, and say what is on your mind. Stop holding back every word you say because you are afraid of what others think, it is hard, i know that myself.

Do not be afraid to be heard. You are you, nobody can stop that. You DO have a voice. You may feel like nobody cares about what you have to say. Stand up for what you think is right. Nobody is going to know what you have to say unless you say it. Nobody is going to hear your words or how their actions hurt you, unless you simply say something. People will judge you for being straight up. Which should not matter.

Focus on the good around you. Let them think and feel how they feel but in the end, it is only you who can control yourself; how you feel; and how you let others make you feel! You cannot let the weight of the world bring you down. There is too many bad things, but also so many better things to look forward to! Never feel like you are alone, or fighting a battle by yourself. You are more than enough.

Nobody should have to feel so unimportant because of how people are treating you or others. Simply they are just that way cause they need guidance and protection. They need someone to reach a hand out and tell them everything's going to be okay, and that someone here for them. I will be here for anybody, for anything. I will reach my hand out, be a shoulder to cry on while wiping your tears.

You are all going to be okay. Life can be chaotic and scary which is why you have to find the good in it. Be the light for those who can't see because it's too dark for them. Help those around you because they just need a little push. Just anything can do. Be there.

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.
