... Is this goodbye forever?

How do you let go of, say goodbye to, and live without someone who was not only the person you talked wedding plans with, but was by your side and your best friend for six years? What do you do, what do you say or think, who do you turn to? Relax. Take a deep breath.

God wouldn't have let him leave if he wasn't supposed to. Sure it's going to feel like someone is literally ripping your heart out and stomping on it for quite some time, but eventually, you will come to terms with what has happened, and you will have to learn to accept it. As heart-wrenching as these words may be, moving on is the only option. You will see that. You cannot live everyday with anger, sadness, and pain that someone has caused in your heart or it will reflect upon everything in your life. You're more than that. Wish him well, and keep moving forward.

Wait what?

I know, I know it's not that easy, but honestly, if you believe it, you can do it. Life doesn't stop for anyone. Why waste your time thinking about how you can get them back? Why would you want to be with someone who doesn't feel for you what you feel for them? There is someone out there, that isn't him, that's going to bring your more happiness and love than you ever thought existed. He left, he's gone. Let go. Move on. Why am I being repetitive? Because it needs to be instilled into your brain that this life of yours is now different. You can choose to be outraged by this, or unbelievably sad, but you can't let that control your thoughts, feelings, and actions round the clock. Here's what you should do:

Step 1: Be sad, be angry, but be these things to yourself and your close friends who are there to support you for only so long.

Step 2: Wish him well, let him know you're not bitter anymore. Maybe someday in the future, your paths will cross again so you can say hello and show him how well you're doing without him.

Step 3: Accept. Walk away because you value your selfworth, and don't look back.

Do your thing now, do all those things you wouldn't have while in the relationship. Now is a new chapter, a chance to start fresh and new. Now is your chance to focus on yourself and possibly opportunities that you have missed out on. Work on being a better version of yourself than you ever were before. Now is the time to be so involved in you that nothing else matters. Please, I am begging you, do not allow yourself to live everyday full of sadness. There is so much more to life. You have the ability to choose how you heal, you have control over whether you will heal or not. I promise that being at peace with yourself and your life begins with moving forward. You owe this to yourself.

How can you let a single human being, who broke your heart with no remorse, ruin the beautiful person that you are? Do you not see that you deserve so much more?

Accept that you deserve more than painful love. Life is moving and the healthiest thing for your heart is to move with it.


So do just that. And don't think twice. Don't look back.

It is goodbye forever because your real 'forever' is waiting on 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.
