A Letter To The People Who Should Keep Their Opinions To Themselves

Seriously, it's not cool to put others down through you're negative words, bro.

Yo,

Haven’t you ever heard the expression, “if you have nothing nice to say, don’t say it”? Okay, we get it, you’re entitled to your own opinions, but there are just some things you shouldn’t have an opinion on. My thing is if it doesn’t affect you personally, then why is it a big deal to you at all? It shouldn’t be. It’s like the whole gay marriage thing. Why THE HELL are a bunch of straight people dictating the lives of people who are just trying to love someone??? Like honestly, it has NOTHING to do with your life and its not gonna kill you or drastically change anything. Your opinion is the most irrelevant, so honestly shut up about it because no one wants to hear your negativity, thanks.

I just don’t get why people make such a big fuss about things that don’t directly affect their lives at all. Just because a person who was born with female parts wants to identify as a male doesn’t mean that you have to change yourself either. If you’re that insecure about your own gender that you have to criticize the choice of someone else, well you might want to figure out your s*** first. I know the truth stings a little bit but so does your negative attitude towards what makes others happy. It just really doesn’t make sense to me why you have to criticize someone. Just let them live their damn lives.

Like I said, you’re entitled to your own opinion, yes. About politics, Beyoncé and whatever the hell else you people care about, but you don’t have the right to inflict power upon someone else to prevent them from living their life peacefully. Just be nice, it’s really not that hard at all. It’s actually cool to be nice because everyone knows what ends up happening to all the assholes in the world; life comes back to bite them in the ass. So just stay positive, constructively criticize and focus on your own life. Stay in your lane.

Thanks,

Jenna

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.
