Faith, Trust, and Pixie Dust. That's Peter Pan's fool-proof recipe for flying. It is also what some people think I need to find a guy to go along with this out-of-the-box wedding theme.

"Peter Pan" was my all-time favorite Disney movie when I was little. Every time I saw Wendy, John, and Michael fly to Neverland with Peter and Tinkerbell, I knew I was in for a great adventure. I can say for sure that I "never grew up" from loving that movie, just like Peter Pan taught me to do all those years ago.

So, why wouldn't I use "Peter Pan" as a theme? I already got my Pinterest board. It's not going to be too cartoony. I'll be very whimsical and woodland with "Peter Pan" accents, like centerpieces with inspirations from different places and characters of Neverland, and using important colors that represent the movie in the bridesmaid's dresses and table settings.

My flower girl and ring bearer will be dressed as Wendy and Peter, respectively. However, from planning this big event in my life, I have learned one important thing, besides the fact that I should be a wedding planner.

Go with your heart, even if it goes against what others think.

In life, there will be some people who will disagree with what you want or think. People should realize that, at the end of the day, you must do what is right for you and make decisions based on what makes you happy. I get teased about this wedding theme all the time by family and friends, and it is all-in-good-fun, but it's what I know and what I want. I'm not going to let anyone else change my mind.

If people say to you, "If you don't do this, I won't be friends with you," kick them to the curb because A) They are not your friend if they say that and B) You do not need that kind of negativity in your life. If you are passionate about something, make it a reality.

Don't settle for anything less.

This is what I always say about my theme. I want this theme, and if my future husband wants something different, we will compromise and go with my theme. Also, if any man is interested in this, I'll be taking applications for a future husband soon.

Please search my name on Pinterest if you want to see my theme come to life.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
