I hope you don't think my lack of these as if it was a good week.

"I hope you don't think my lack of these as if it was a good week. I mean, I had a few good day. Funny enough they were both Fridays."

Honestly, I'm tired of giving people chances. I don't know. People can go somewhere. Do you ever try to tell someone something and they ignore it and 5 months later, they get mad because won't tell you that thing?!? Or when you tell someone what bothers you but they still do that thing? Or when they run into you after you move out the way and they push you down?

One is not the like the other. I was already describing people/friends of sorts so I thought I should show I, in fact, do have someone that isn't a complete asshole. Well, he is but there are other reasons for that."

I think we are all allowed to go through bad times in our life. I also think it is okay to tell someone instead of keeping it to yourself. You have the right to voice your opinion even when no one agrees with it. If people make you uncomfortable, you don't have to stay in that. You get to pick and choose who you let in your life, other people don't get to. If someone is bothering you, you can tell them. You don't have to live your life around other people, live it around yourself and let others fall in. You are allowed to be happy too.

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.
