Love: it’s a funny thing. There are too many songs to count that talk about it and so many people who look like they are in love. Love isn’t easy. It’s not something that you feel for someone immediately. It takes time to know, and for many people, knowing doesn’t hit you like a lightning bolt.

A couple days ago, a friend of mine asked me if I have ever been in love or had the feeling of complete euphoria. Honestly, I responded saying “not really” and It kind of hit like a train. All these feelings that I thought I felt of love, was mainly infatuation. Love is tricky because it enfolds more than one emotion. Love is being 100% comfortable around someone; it’s full trust and honesty. Love is to care for someone so much and only want the best for them. Love is so many things, but only you will know when you are in love.

Wait for the one, you’ll know eventually. Wait for the content feeling, knowing that everything will fit into place. Your parents will like him, your best friend will love him, and he will want you. He will want the good, the bad, and the ugly. He will want to be there for it all.

Love is fragile. It is special and unique to the couple who are in it. Love can be damaged, so try to keep the spark, and let everything happen naturally. Love is unique to each individual because they express love differently. Many people have their language of love, mine is touch and words of affirmation. It is always interesting to hear about other's love languages and see how they feel love best.

One day, I can’t wait to be in love because when I do, it will feel right.

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.
