To The People Of The United States

We still have so much to be thankful for after this historic election.

Dear People of the United States,

I understand that you are afraid. I understand if you are worried for what the future holds with Donald Trump as our next President of the United States. I understand that as a young white woman, I don’t understand everything you’re feeling, but I’m trying to.

This election was a historical event in our country’s history that will always be remembered. It was a hard race and fought well. With all the emotions that are flooding conversation and the Internet, there’s still plenty of things to remember after this big moment in history.

We are so blessed to live in this country.

America is the land of the free and the home of the brave. America is the land of immigrants and opportunity. America was always great and still is.

I understand many of you may not like Donald Trump, but please give him a chance.

Having a new president is always a scary thing. There has always been a group of people who do not like the president-elect, but please give this newest president-elect a chance to prove himself. Everyone deserves a chance. Let’s give Donald Trump one.

The Constitution guarantees us the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.

Donald Trump is not going to be allowed to run around Washington and do whatever the heck he wants. The Constitution guarantees us many rights, and he will not be allowed to make whatever changes he wants without the approval of Congress. And to go along with that, there are still plenty of people in Washington with their head screwed on straight who will make sure we are going down the right path in this country.

A house divided against itself cannot stand.

We need to unite together as one country. As one people. As one. Period. We need to unite and give Donald Trump a chance to prove himself to us as the next President of the United States. Remember, even in times where it seems like everything is going wrong and nothing is right, united we stand, divided we fall.

Sincerely,

A citizen with hope for the future

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.
