Never Forget

To embrace the times spent with the ones you love most

18
Never Forget

Often we as humans forget to remind ourselves just how precious our family and friends are. We value their presence, enjoy their company, but forget to truly appreciate the times spent with them. Though life is beautiful, it comes with a price. No matter how much we try to convince ourselves that we are invincible to the harsh realities of life, we are not. With every triumph comes tragedy. That is why we must never take our loved ones for granted.


We must remember to always cherish the times spent with our family and friends because we never know when it will be our last. We must always tell our loved ones just how much they mean to us because that could very well be our final time. We must always enjoy the memories made because life is simply too precious.

Tragedies happen everyday yet we as humans do not think they can happen to us. Sadly, they do. That is why we must always be mindful of life for all that it truly is. It brings us great everlasting joy, but it can also bring us great sadness.

So embrace the time you have with friends and family. Show them your love and remind them how thankful you are for them each and everyday. We only have one life to live, we must make every second count.

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.
