Dear Humanity,

We are about to enter the uncharted territory of President Donald Trump. It's a scary thought. I know. It's terrifying to think that a man who has said so many horrible things about people, both specific people and targeted groups, and who has no experience in politics, is going to be the person running our country. I know that a lot of people are scared of what Trump might do as President in regards to policy changes. I want you to know that it is going to be okay. We are going to be okay.

Yes, Trump has said a lot of racist, misogynistic, xenophobic things. He has offended numerous people and probably will continue to offend us as people throughout his presidency. And we should be offended. We should be offended by the things he says, and we should want to fight it. Instead of hiding from Trump's words, we should allow them to fuel the fire and the passion to fight back. We are the ones that are going to make a difference. He is just one man, and together, we are stronger than he will ever be.

Four years. We will have President Donald Trump for four years. A lot can happen in four years. He can change a lot in four years, but so can we. I know a lot of people are scared of these next four years. And that's okay. I want you to know that there are people here who are here for you. We have your back, and we will always stand up for you. We will not stand down from our beliefs, despite what Trump says or does as President. We can do this. We will stand up. We will fight. And we will get through this. As Trump's presidency approaches, please know that I love you. You are an amazing and wonderful human, and you can do anything. Remember that for the next four years, and forever.

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.
