For The Girl Who Doesn't Know What She Wants

It's okay to not have a clue.

It's okay not to have clue what you want in life. In fact, I would be extremely suspicious of someone who claims to have it all figured out. Life throws crazy curve balls and it's more than likely you will be caught by surprise. Some of these surprises could become blessings or lessons, but neither of these things are bad.

Life is unpredictable, and that's okay. It's the unpredictability that makes it interesting. Don't ever allow anyone to discourage you because of your inability to decide what it is that you want out of life. There will be days where your thoughts will be rambling through your mind and you will decide you want to do a million things, and there will be days where your mind will draw a complete blank, and none of those things you previously wanted will seem to be of any importance anymore. That's okay. The day will come when your passion in life will be brought to your attention when you least expect it. Just like anything in life, it's important to be patient.

It's understandable that this issue we face as young women who are expected to achieve greatness at whatever cost will stress you out. However, just remember that your propose in life is on its way to you. There will be a day where you will be able to look back on this time and wish you could have known what was ahead of the road. Where you will laugh at your sleepless nights and naive thoughts.

Because we are women, we are expected to know everything, have a plan for it, and be organized. This expectation is unfair and it's a lot to live up to. Just remember to stay focused and stay positive. Prove to yourself that you can achieve greatness and forget about what others expect and what they think. You will be truly successful once you are happy with yourself and your accomplishments. Do not doubt yourself!

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.
