The Hurting Never Stops...

I can’t stop hurting.

The Hurting Never Stops...

I'm to the point where even if something small happens, I have a mental breakdown. I can't handle anything anymore because I've bottled everything up for so long that I'm slowly cracking. I'm going to keep cracking till there is no point of repair which is my biggest fear. I don't know what to do anymore besides cry. I wish there was something I could do. I try to be positive then something bad happens which causes me to crack more & I'm back to square one. I can't keep doing this cycle. It's too hard on me & it's hard on everyone around who has to deal with me. I never realized how difficult of a person I was till recently. Everyone complained about everything I did or said, but little did I know that I wasn't sure what I was doing in the first place. I feel like a shell & I'm empty on the inside. I don't know how to make myself feel whole. I'm tired of putting the burden on my family. It's just hard because I care but I'm too the point when I'm so tired of hurting that I don't care if I hurt anyone else. I scream out for help but there's no one. Everyone leaves in my life & I can't count on anyone. When I finally have my last straw, that's when strangers come in & try to save me but little do that know that I'm already too far gone. I honestly don't know what to do besides “ACT” normal. I want to cry & be alone. I also want someone to be there to comfort me. I can't win. I'm continually losing this battle. I can't keep up anymore.

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.
