whisper

Thank you, for the pain is still there

Thinking back to when I thought I was in love

You weren't

And I swear

I thought we had something

We didn't

I thought it was love

It wasn't

I thought oh we would get married one day

That was nothing

I had planned everything

You were too focused on yourself

Let me put it straight forward

Thank you for helping me realize This was a game

Not the real thing

You did not deserve me

You said I was stupid, too high maintenance, spoiled and immature

But look back on who you were

Now tell me who was immature

Thank you for helping me realize that no one has ever torn me down as bad as you and your friends

Truly you were not the best for me

I wasn't the best for you

But some day I will mean the world to the right person

The person who pursues me, puts his all into the relationship and cares for me over himself

Thank you for helping me realize my worth

You said I was no princess

But I'll tell you this my daddy owns this world

He says I am his

Unless you know this to be true you were never meant to have my heart in the first place

I am a princess

God's princess

Men are put on this earth to treat women as though they are precious

Not relentless

To have my heart you must have my father's first

And that you never had

You said you believed but did your actions show it

Thank you for helping me realize I deserve so much more

I am a child of God, a princess, and made in his image

He loves me and unless you are pushing a woman to the Lord and to eventually make her your wife don't waste her time

Do her a favor and let her go

If your intentions aren't right

For she is more precious than silver or gold

She is not easy to understand, easy to handle, or easy to hold

But she is worth it through it all

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.
