To The People Who Are A Little Broken

It's okay if life gives you lemons, and you don't make lemonade.

The process of healing isn't the same for everyone. There isn't a set beginning and end date for the hurting. You take what life gives you, and you adapt. So while the hurt may be indefinite, know it won't last forever. And yes, it will be hard. Getting out of bed seems to be an easy task for most, but for you- it may be everest, and that's okay. It's okay to dread that rising sun and the responsibilities that come with it, because it's scary. It's okay to be a little reclusive, you've earned it. It's okay to need people, and it's okay to not. It's okay if the things that used to bring you joy, just don't anymore. It happens. It's okay if life gives you lemons, and you don't make lemonade. It's okay if you just need to cry.

Life gets overwhelming and that's something everyone understands. It's okay if you've eaten so much chocolate that your stomach hurts. And this may feel like it's gone on forever, but soon enough, you're climbing everest and getting out of bed. You're looking out your window, and seeing the sunrise in a whole new light. You're planting flowers, dancing in the shower, and laughing so hard that you cry. To the people who are a little broken- it won't last forever.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
