Never Give Up On Your Dreams
www.mashupcorner.com

When you were young, one of the most frequent questions you were asked was what you wanted to become when you grew up. Being a kid, responses to this question would be a singer, a dancer, a football player, a firefighter, a policeman and so much more. You name it, it was an answer. When you grew up, you realized that achieving your dreams would be harder than you expected. Many challenges will face you along the way while chasing your dreams. You will be set back more times than not, and you will question yourself, asking if you have what it takes to turn your dreams into a reality. You may think of quitting. I am here to tell you to never give up on your dreams.

You have the power to achieve your dreams, whatever they may be. Sure, it is going to take a lot of hard work, dedication and determination to reach your final destination. Sure, it may not be the easiest road getting there. Life is hard. Life is a challenge, a roller coaster even full of different emotions, feelings and events. Through everything though, no matter how hard life gets, never lose sight of who you are or who you want to become and never lose sight of your dreams. Failure will happen in life, but it is how you deal with your failures that makes you a stronger person in the end. Your failures will help you succeed later in life, so just remember that everything happens for a reason. If you never fall, how will you learn how to get back up again and keep going? It is much better to give your dreams everything you've got, rather than not going for it at all.

To achieve your dreams, you have to believe in yourself. Don't let anyone stand in the way of achieving your dreams, and don't sell yourself short for less than you are worth. You are capable of being the person you have always wanted to be. If you put your mind to it, you can accomplish anything. Everything you need to achieve your dreams is inside of you. Be thankful for all of the gifts you have received in your life and use those gifts to reach your end goals.

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.
