If People Were Colors

You changed my life from black and white to vibrant color.

If people were colors, you'd be yellow.

Shining and glistening like the sun, your immanent light illuminating every place you travel. As cliche as it sounds, you could light up any room, and when you speak the brightest lights glisten with envy. You leave sunspots everywhere you go, even an hour in your presence enough to leave me feeling warm and tingly all over. A day with you is like a trip to the sun, one that I never want to end.

If people were seasons, you'd be summer.

Your spirit carries you further than anything else. The possibility of freedom in every moment living in your every move, and the endless love for the world that pulses through your veins propelling you forward. You crash over everyone that knows you like a wave, your waters leaving me breathless in the best way. Every day with you feels like a new adventure.

If people were songs, you'd be my favorite one.

Melodic and floating through the air without a care in the world, not giving a second thought to who may be within earshot, but wanting everyone to hear you regardless. You are loud and incredible, and your voice is my favorite sound. You feel like a movie soundtrack, perfectly crafted for every moment. Everything you do complements you so perfectly, and I could have you on repeat for hours.

If people were colors, before you I was blue.

Going through the motions day by day, yet not feeling a thing. Cold, damp, drowning. Sunshine feeling as far away as any sign of help. Cast into the deep by the ones who came before you, I was as blue as they come. Waves crashed, I cracked, watching as they took me under one by one.

But then you came along and everything changed.

Somehow sunshine found its way into my darkness, illuminating things I thought would stay hidden forever. You tore me from my comfort zone, and made me into a new creation. You dredged me of the water that was swallowing me whole, cradling me and leading me to drink from the sweetest water you could find.

You turned my life from black and white to vibrant color.

Jesus, you make me feel yellow.

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.
