Lately there has been a realization, as an ultimatum, of discrepancy in life, in referral to simply very bad people in this world. These people get their feelings from their names being slipped from your parted lips and swim in the satisfaction of having an upper hand. As unhealthy of an environment as this is, most people consciously believe that no action is the best action for standing up for ones self. There in lies harassment and mind games for there will always be someone in your life who gets off at the thought of you being down. A recent observation found that not acknowledging an issue is the best problem solving tool in stabilizing substantial happiness in the process of preluding to do whatever the heck it is that you want to do. Happiness is achievable by circumstance and opportunity. Unhappiness is attained when blindly letting darkness commend itself into your smile and taint you with the everlasting commands of people who have yet to discover what it means to be alive as a person with a carpe diem soul. It is so, very, easy to have a life without pain, darkness and anxiety. We simply have taught one another that struggles are normal to evolve, and through the evolution without proper understanding of such a "necessary" thing as pain, we hurt those we care about most. In the end, we have no one to blame but the ones who taught us to think the way we do. For then, we thank them for allowing us the opportunity to teach ourselves the right way to be happy.

Its an incredulously confusing thing, for example, when the people you are supposed to care about most, teach you over and over again why you should feel hate towards said people you care about, and that same compassion escapes those people when such a thing is needed most. There is a lack of identity in ones self in this, but in also ones morals. These deceive ones self in believing that compassion is a relevant emotion. And in this cycle, lost souls find themselves, unhappy. You find it in war, politics, family, friends, lovers and society. If you were not confused about what it means to be stable with your eyes open to see such a thing, curiosity commends 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.
