Stop waiting around for him. He'll come when the time is right.

I know, you've probably heard this thousands of times, and you're sick of hearing it, but he will come eventually. Things take time. Everyone's life is different. Some people start dating young, some people don't date until well into their thirties. It just depends on what life has thrown you.

This doesn't mean you aren't beautiful.

It means that fate has a different destiny in mind for you than others. Stop comparing yourself to other people. You are your own person. Your life is different than everyone else's. You're different than everyone else. That's what makes you unique.

Don't let society make you think there's something wrong with you if you haven't been in a relationship with someone.

Don't lower your standards just because you want to be in a relationship.

Stay true to yourself.

You can say I'm biased because I'm in a relationship. You would be right. But I also know plenty of people who are exactly like you. Or better yet, people who thought they found "the one," but they really didn't. They just wanted to get a move on with their life.

There's no rush. Stop thinking negative things about yourself. Go out and do something you normally wouldn't. Live life on the edge. Be the best possible you. Stop waiting for something that's not going to happen because you are waiting for it. The most beautiful things happen when you least expect them to.

I promise you, you are good enough for someone out there, so stop with those ridiculous thoughts in your head.

You are beautiful, you are worth it, and it's time you stopped waiting around for "the one" to appear.

Live life to the fullest, make dumb decisions, and along the way, you'll be surprised by what happens.

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.
