Music has always played an important role in many people's lives. It has been a saving grace in time of need. Music has been there when no one else has. Music has been a peace in anger, a comfort in sadness, an up lifter in hard times, a relaxation in stress. There's always so many different types of emotions attached to so many different songs, and that's what we love about it.

I remember sitting in my room one night, so angry at my parents after we had a fight. I was punching walls and screaming into my pillow, I was so livid. I couldn't calm down for the life of me no matter what I did and so I did the only thing I could think of; listen to music. I layed on my floor and turned on "Relaxation Radio" on Pandora and felt all my boiling anger slowly subside. My anger turned into desolation, then into peace and into so many different emotions as I listened to each song. I had chills on every inch of my body.

Music is a way to put emotions into words. This generation has so many different types of music that help us express who we are and how we feel. As time goes on it keeps getting harder and harder to express how we feel without judgment, and music allows us to do that in a round a bout way.

For many of us, music has been a saving grace. When we've had a hard day, we crank up the radio and let all the stress fade away. The great thing about music is that there's always a song that fits into any situation. Music is one of the greatest things ever invented.

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.
