Find Yourself In Your 20s

There is no better time to define yourself than in your twenties, this is the most important decade of your life.

I'm a firm believer that your 20's is a time meant for you to find yourself and discover who you are. When you hit your 20's that's when the reality seems to really set in that you are now an adult, and that's not always fun. You ask a lot of people I'm sure you will hear most of them say that they at least sometimes wish they could be a kid again because it was so simple. I know I've felt that way before, but I've also come to realize I've never been happier with who I am than right now.



I like to think of your 20's as the 'selfish' years. There is a time in everyone's life where they are entitled to be a little selfish and what better time than your twenties. In your twenties you discover who you really are and who you want to be. This is the time find all your likes and dislikes, things your good at and maybe not so good at. At this age you've got nothing but freedom and time for you so be selfish with it.



I think I've discovered more about myself in these short few years of being in my 20's than I have in my entire lifetime. I not only discovered things about myself but new outlooks on life and I think that's what you're twenties are about; molding yourself to be who you were meant to be.

There will be some days where you just want to say...


Let's face it not every day will be a good one and some day it will feel like being an adult is just too much, but of course we can't stop time. Stop putting pressure on yourself to have your life together, and take advantage of the youth you have left. After all you may never get another chance to be 'selfish' and discover who you are, so take the bad with the good and make it all count. When you're in your 20's the world is at your finger tips; it's what you choose to do with it.

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.
