A Letter To Those Who Didn't Believe In Me

Dear Non-Believer,

You may think that this is a hate letter about you, but actually I am here to say thank you.

You were the one who brought me down and the one who made me think I couldn't achieve my goals. But I am here to tell you I have achieved all my goal and more.

Your negativity was the reason that I pushed myself harder in order to be successful. I wanted to prove to you as well as everyone else who ever doubted my capabilities that I could do it. You are the reason I am standing here today, better and stronger than ever.

Thank you for showing me that people in the world will doubt me, and that I will prove them wrong.

Thank you for giving me the strength to work harder.

Thank you for showing that even when I fail, I am able to find the strength to get up and try again.

I may not be perfect. I sometimes mess up and don't do things by the books. But I have learned to utilize my flaws and use them to help me become a better person.

If it wasn't for you, the one of many who doubted me, I wouldn't be where I am today. I wouldn't have the same success, I wouldn't have tried as hard, and I wouldn't be continuing to surprise people. This is all because of you.

You were a blessing in disguise. I thought this whole time that you were only here to bring me down and make me think I couldn't accomplish anything. But you are just what I needed, someone to push me to strive to do my best.

So thank you, I couldn't have done it without you.

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.
