Little Things People Tend to Forget

1. Actions Speak Louder Than Words

You can say you care and ramble on about how much someone means to you, but the only way for them to know you actually care is through your actions. When you really care about someone these actions shouldn't have to be forced or seen as a hassle. You should put the effort in because all you want to do is see that person smile and be happy. This is so crucial in all relationships not just to keep the other person happy but to remind them that they're special to you and that you're thinking of them.

2. You Can’t Take Anything For Granted

When things become routine it’s easy to get comfortable and start assuming nothing will ever change. Although, in that very moment is when change is most likely to occur. When people get comfortable they begin not putting as much effort in and taking things/people in for granted. Life is unpredictable and you never know when you something could be taken for you. That’s why its important to enjoy the things you have and make the most of everyday with all the blessings you have in your life.

3. Live In The Moment

While it’s good to plan the future, life changes and obstacles appear unexpectedly. The only thing you're promised is the very moment you're in. Embrace it, enjoy it, make the most of it. Life is what you make it, so make it the best it can be.

4. Don’t Look Back With Regrets

People make mistakes and life isn't perfect but that’s what makes it beautiful. Imperfection allows for improvement which keeps life progressing. For that very reason, we cant dwell on small mistakes or misjudgments that led to a bad choice. We can’t move forward if we keep looking back on things that we can no longer change. Don’t regret anything because in that moment, when you made that decision, it was something that you chose and that you wanted. In the future if you look back wishing you made a different decision, you should take those feelings and use them to make a wiser decision in the future. But dealing with uneasy feelings of regret is an unnecessary strain over something that can’t be changed or taken back.

5. Life Goes On

Everyone goes through ups and downs in their life. When life seems tough or unmanageable you always have to remember that life goes on and with every down just secures room for things to get better. Pick your head up and stay strong, for life goes on and it can always get better.

6. Everyone Is Special In Their Own Way

People always find things to be self conscious about. It’s very easy for someone to find something they don't like about themselves when they're constantly comparing themselves to others. Don’t get down on yourself when you find your imperfections because while you see someone who is better at something than you are, theirs something else that your better at than that person. Every person is different but that’s what makes each individual special in their own way. So don’t harp on your flaws but emphasize your uniqueness.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
