"I think I can. I think I can." said the little engine that could as it traveled slowly up the large hill in front of it. Sure enough, with this mantra in mind, the train that it could, did.

We all have mantras or slogan in our life that gets us through things, big and little. Need a few more to get your through the week? Fear not, my reader, I gotchu. Enjoy this compiled list of mantras and sayings by myself and others that I've grown accustom to threading into my life.

I don't regret it, I'm just now rethinking my life choices.

The past is the past, it happened and you can't undo that haircut, texts you just sent, or outfit from last night. But now you can rethink it for future reference. One mistake won't kill you, doing it over and over again just might though.

Youth and beauty fade. Human decency doesn't.

Being a kind person >>> knowing how to match an outfit. Sometimes we look like a garbage bag, and even if you don't, don't treat people like trash, okay?

Life is too short to be embarrassed.

Be weird, it's fun. Ask that D1 athlete for a selfie in class, don't hold back your HSM dance moves on the bus, accept the coffee stain on your shirt as you approach that attractive student, do you.

The bigger the shirt, the cuter the kid.

Rock. That. Oversized. Shirt. And. Don't. Look. Back.

I figure, as long as it looks like I'm not dying on the outside I must be doing okay.

In regards to walking up and down this campus, nothing makes you feel more out of shape than climbing Mt. Oread, but hey, as long as it looks like you're thriving...

The comfier the clothes, the more functional they are.

Oversized frocket= pocket and a dress. Elastic waistband= extra area to hold things. Sweatpants=side pockets. Moral of the story: pockets.

Thirty, flirty, and thriving.

This will get you through anything. Paddleboarding for the first time, driving down a mountain, pitching a tent. Anything.

You won't.

Oh yes, yes I can, and I will.

If you hit a wall, climb over it.

The struggle is real, but you can get past it, whether you climb it, push through, or dig a tunnel under it.

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.
