In A Blink Of My Big Brown Eyes

Responsibility to keep the tranquility.

In A Blink Of My Big Brown Eyes
A picture of Rainbows drawn by me not long ago.

Every night I go to sleep and think:

Another day has gone by,

In a blink; of my big brown eyes.


I rest my head,

on my pillow in my comfy bed,

and I am thankful that I am not dead.

I am thankful for every smile I gave today,

and for the ones that will come my way.


The crashing waves of sleep envelope me in their warm sheets.

And I am thankful that throughout the whole night,

my body will rest, and my heart will beat.


Tomorrow I will wake up to the light,

that marks the start of a whole new day granted to me

by who is in charge of the Universe:

the whimsical Deity.


I pray I will be spared from any curse,

And I pray the Deity will enable me to do my best,

For it is not time to rest.


It is time for me to stand up!

I stand up for those who are less fortunate than I.

For I am fortunate to be alive beneath the beautiful sky.


I am thankful that I know that

With good fortune comes responsibility.

Responsibility to keep the tranquility,

a responsibility that is mine.

And I cannot let down the divine,

that is embedded in every soul that crosses my path.


I do my best in hope that my peers will be free of wrath.

For it is wrath,

that causes the world to crash.


My responsibility is to make the world a better place for every face,

that is why today I smile,

because TODAY is worthwhile!

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.
