Sometimes not knowing what to write about is the best way to actually get your feelings down on paper, or this case online. Odyssey has always been a great outlet for me to get out my feelings whether they are positive or negative.

While my articles don't always get as many shares as I think they should, it still makes me proud that people have taken the time out of their busy lives to read something that I created. I have many, fully written articles that are left as drafts because I never think it's a good time to share the content on them.

One of the many things I love about Odyssey is that you don't have to censor your opinions. Sure, there may be some topics in which people may not always agree with, but that’s the great thing about this: you don’t have to agree with someone’s opinion to get fully engaged in the content.

Writing for Odyssey has definitely shown me that I have a voice, even if I’m just one person. If you join our team, it can do the same thing for you. In a world of over a million people, Odyssey has made me feel like I’m a someone.

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.
