10 Reasons To Love Who You Are
love yourself

Everyone should love who they are simply because you were born a certain way for a reason, and because you will be happier if you do not try to be someone you are not. Here are ten reasons why you should always love yourself.

1. You should love yourself the way you are because your friends and family are going to love you no matter what, even if you think that they won't.

2. Love yourself because no one likes it when people act fake.

3. One should love themselves because when they try to be someone they aren't they are not truly happy.

The world is an ugly place when people are unhappy with themselves.

4. Love who you are because there is absolutely NO reason not to.

5. Love yourself because if someone truly loves you they will love the true you, not who you pretend to be.

6. Be your own person because you were made to be one of a kind.

If everyone was "normal" or the same, life would not be fun at all.

7. Love who you are because it does not matter to anyone else if you are different, simply because everyone is different.

That is okay.

8. Love who you are because if you do not love yourself others will not be capable of loving you.

If you do not let the real you shine, no one else can see it. No one could ever love you if they do not know who you truly are, or who you strive to be.

9. Love yourself because if you do not you will never move forward in life, you will be more likely to be stuck in one place.

10. Lastly, love who you are because it is who you are.

Accept yourself. Everyone should learn to love what they see when they look in the mirror, simply because they are meant to be who they are for a reason, and to be loved one must first love themselves.

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.
