It's Important To Follow Your Dreams

There is so much importance to your dreams. They are your desires and hopes for yourself and your future. Dreams are something that you look forward to do your best to pursue. They help to shape you into who you want to be and hopefully, who you end up being.

There are so many things that can stand in your way to achieving your goals and dreams that it may seem like you will never get there. Sometimes the world may make you feel like your dream isn’t enough because you wont be making a million dollars or maybe because it doesn’t seem reasonable. But hey, good thing it’s not their life, and it’s your choice.

There are obstacles that everyone has to face and overcome. There can be struggles financially, physically, emotionally, and mentally. There are times that you hit rock bottom and don’t think that your dreams will ever be attainable, but they will. You can make it with some hard work and dedication. Don’t be discouraged because good things take time. You have to start at the bottom and work your way up, but this won’t necessarily be a bad thing for you. Starting from a low place will make you appreciate when you get to the top of that mountain.

Your dreams give you something to work for. They are something that you eventually reach by taking many steps. Working towards your dreams teaches you patience and determination. It helps to give you a purpose and helps with your own self-fulfillment. The satisfaction of finally reaching your goal is so sweet when you get there.

It’s important to follow YOUR dreams because its YOUR life. Happiness is something that we can create for ourselves and our dreams are a darn good place to start. Whether it’s a career, having a family, traveling, or anything else, don’t let anyone tell you that your dream is unreasonable or not worth it. Dreams are so important to your soul and identity, and I hope that everyone is able to live theirs and make their dreams their reality.

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.
