Open letter to the girl who feels lost

Hitting rock bottom does not mean you have to stay there.

Open letter to the girl who feels lost

I know that life has not always been easy, and you lost all control,, losing all sight of the important things. Now that you have hit rock bottom, and you start gaining control of your life again, things will be difficult but I pray you do not give up. When you finally hit the bottom, you realize the climb back up will be incredibly challenging. That is okay though, because after all the complications and hard times in your life, you know you will become a stronger, and more confident in what you're capable of. You will have every reason to take care of yourself, and put yourself first. You might have wandered away from the person you are, but high hopes she will return.

I pray that you allow yourself to fail sometimes, and over come the failure. I pray that you are able to remember your past, while you are starting to create your future. I pray that you surround yourself with a support system who love you, and allow you to be yourself. I pray that you begin to trust in yourself enough to make your own decisions, and to make the right choice. I pray that you begin to trust again, and you start to do the things you love and make you happy. I pray that you never give up who you are for someone else. I pray that you allow kindness to guide you. Most importantly, I pray that you pull yourself back up from the darkness, and never fall back again. Most importantly, I pray that you find yourself.

You never realized, but you went missing a long time ago. Your family, friends, and support system has missed your smile, and your laugh. Not the fake smile you do when you're feeling vulnerable, but the one that everyone sees in photos. I hope that the girl everyone knew, welcomes you back with open arms, and love. I believe you will find your path again, and you are returned to where you belong. You might have wandered a little, but you were never fully lost.

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.
