I Miss Being Little Sometimes

Being little made life more exciting, and when we reminiscence on those days we start to miss it a little.

Growing up because harder each day. Life continually throws curves balls towards us in every aspect of life.

When I was younger, Playing dolls was life. Going outside was a daily thing. Being my mom's little tag along buddy was the best. Boys were just friends. Christmas was more exciting. Things were simple and easier as a child.

Growing up came upon me very quickly. Cell phones were never important to me until I reached the age of "omg he's cute" or when the "clicks" became a thing. Bras were never important. Fixing my hair was never important. Making sure I looked good or was in style was never important. None of those things were important to me until I started to become a teenager.

Growing up is hard. Growing up comes with responsibility and challenges. Being the sweet innocent kid was me for a while until I decided to come out of my comfort zone. Which I do not regret. The smallest things did not matter to me when I was young, but they do now. I care too much about stupid boys. I care too much about a lot of things. I think most of us girls do today. No one ever told me that life is going to be easy, because it isn't. The tears I used to cry when I was younger were over a boo-boo, not a boy or a test. Crazy how our feelings enhance right? We all started off as kids who could care less about someone loving them, and now we spend nights wondering or hoping that our crush realizes us.

In life, we make choices either right or wrong. We make mistakes. It is apart of growing up. Everything you do in your life has a purpose, and you might think "why though" but trust me everything happens for a reason. We all miss those younger and easier days. But one day the stress you are having right now, will not last for long.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
