We live in the era where showing off our accomplishments/traveling/life on social media has become vital to our existence. In the mix, comes beautiful superstars that are queens of social media. We see all their beautiful pictures, and suddenly we think that is all there is to them.

Men become conditioned to think women are all about how we look. Who can blame them right? I mean look at the immense amount of movies and televisions shows that objectify women. Of course, this is just merely a reflection of how men actually think.

Men make up 95.7% of directors in the Hollywood industry. It is no wonder women are portrayed in the way where nothing matters but their looks.

All this media exposure, not only allows us to live in a fantasy world, but it soon starts to affect our reality. It makes us vulnerable to the negative influence of others. Therefore leading to focus on the physical aspect of women and even men and ignoring the traits that matter such as character.

When we see someone we like, the first thing that attracts us is their looks. Imagine every person would allow themselves to put all looks aside and focus on the person's character. Friendships and relationships would possibly last longer. You know what they say, outer beauty fades and inner beauty stays.

By no means am I excluding looks at all costs. They do matter, but they are not what we should be focusing on.

Let us celebrate everyone's inner beauty. At the end of the day, character is waht truly captures the heart.

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.
