He sought to be the definition of perfection.

He wanted to be the golden child.

The child who could do no wrong.


Sadly, that wasn’t the case with him


He had his friends and family, yet

he still felt out of place.

He felt like a last resort.


He didn’t feel wanted.


He knew that he had it all.

His loved ones saw him as a hero.

Others saw him as the villain in the story.


The one who destroys the world.


The other kids constantly teased him.

They never let him join their games.

All he wanted was to feel accepted.


To feel like he belonged.


For most of his childhood, he was an outcast.

He never had a chance to fit in.

He was called “weird” and “different”


The words cut deeper than a knife ever could


One day came where he had enough.

He didn’t want to feel left out anymore.

He wanted to get rid of his pain.


He wanted to see darkness in his future.


After the thoughts and attempts, someone came forward.

Someone gave him what he was searching for.

She saved him from the dark void of his future.


She gave him love and acceptance.


Years pass, and he is now in college.

He has friends and family supporting him.

He finally feels the happiness he deserves.


He finally feels like he belongs.

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.
