Love yourself. Accept yourself. No matter what.

Don't give up.

Love yourself. Accept yourself. No matter what.

Even when times get hard.

There will be times where you find yourself in a rough position. Whether it's school, work, family, friends, relationships... whatever it may be. You will find yourself stressed. You will find yourself tired. You will find yourself in a position where you don't know what to do. Don't give up. You have to remember to love yourself. Accept yourself.

Even when you feel like you're drowning.

We have all been there. We have all felt like there's too much on our plate. During this time, you will feel drained. You will feel tired. You will feel like there's too much to do. You will tell yourself you just need a break. School is draining. Work is draining. Let's face it, sometimes, everything is draining at one point in your life. Don't give up. You have to remember to love yourself. Accept yourself.

Even when you want to give up.

The thought of giving up has crossed your mind at one point. You have had this thought when there was just too much to handle. You have had this thought when tough times just keep reoccurring. You have had this thought when things just got too hard. Don't give up. You have to remember to love yourself. Accept yourself.

Even when you don't find yourself lovable.

We know this feeling all too well. For many, many different reasons. We have all felt unworthy. We have all felt useless. We have all felt betrayed. We have all been let down, hurt. We have all found ourselves to be in this position. We can't give up. We have to remember to love ourselves. Accept ourselves.

Love yourself for who you are.

Don't let anyone bring you down to the point that you don't love and accept yourself for who you are. There will be a time or two where you feel like you have no one to lean on or talk to. There will be a time where you are the only person that can get yourself through the situation or position you are in. There will be times where you ask yourself; "what do I do?" You pray. You love yourself. Accept yourself. You do you, for you. No matter what. Don't give up. You are NOT alone.

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.
