First Love

or Can You Name These Song References?


When I see your face, 1

I drink in your eyes, 2

And all of my doubt suddenly goes away somehow. 3

Everything seems different; 4

I pray to be only yours. 5

You make me happy when skies are gray. 6

I’m living in a daydream, 7

And no one is ever going to bring me down. 8

I’m yours to keep. 9

You save me from the dark. 10

You’re the only one I see. 11

Where are you going? Can you take me with you? 12

You wouldn’t have to say that you love me. 13

But if you know what you want… 14

I don’t want to hold you back now. 15

Sunday morning, rain is falling. 16

The nights are long alone, 17

No one to comfort me or guide me. 18

Just me and my broken heart. 19

I stare at a picture of you 20

And my heart is heavy. 21

Now the memories are on the wall. 22

I wish, more than anything, 23

That I won’t fall. 24

But as the walls begin to tumble down, 25

I let you go and let the lonely in. 26

I need you, and I miss you. 27

And I think to myself, 28

“Hamerchák shebeynéynu hu ad.” 29

(The distance between you and I is endlessness.)

But I can do it; I’ll get through it. 30

I stand so tall, just the way I’m supposed to be. 31

All I ask of you 32

Is that you don’t forget me. 33

Remember me once in a while. 34

For if I could find a way to see this straight, 35

The one thing that would never change 36

Is that you are the best thing that’s ever been mine. 37

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.
