You may not see it yourself, but you're one of the most genuine people I have ever encountered in my lifetime.

You are selfless, thoughtful, vibrant, and caring. It's rare to find a person like you these days.

Although I haven't known you a great deal of time, you always remind me how beautiful I am on the inside and the outside. You always point out not only mine but others positive qualities as well. You always give me advice on various things, whether I ask for it or not. Everyone needs a friend like you in their life.

Now, I am going to give you a piece of advice:

Stop searching high and low for love.

Like I mentioned before, you are one of the most genuine and beautiful people I have met. I know it literally kills you inside to be single, but I have seen you go through too many heartbreaks and seeing that, kills me. I tell you time and time again how so-and-so doesn't deserve you and that you're better than him. It's a seemingly endless go around of you meeting a guy, whether it be in person, on Tinder, or a mutual friend, getting your heartbroken after things don't work out, me trying to console you the best that I can, then you telling me about a new guy you met.

Instead of focusing on finding your soul mate right this second, go find yourself. You're young, go out and enjoy what you have as a single woman. Find what makes you happy, find what you're passionate about, find what makes you, YOU.

When you find yourself and learn to love yourself, someone one else will come along who will love you more than any previous boy has before.

I want you to find love just as much as you want it, but you need to learn to love yourself before anyone else can.

Now go be single and content. Enjoy your 20's. Do crazy things with your friends. Go on adventures. Go see the world. But most importantly, love yourself.

Xoxo

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.
