Poem: Under The Rain

Never imagined kissing my other half under the rain in the middle of a storm out of many other places.

Poem: Under The Rain

We first met in church.

We started talking and became friends fast.

Then our second meeting was under the worst conditions you can think of.

It was windy and raining

and I was stuck on the 495 with a flat tire and with no replacement.

At the time, I didn't have much guy friends

except now I had Luke.

We had just become friends and didn't want to ask for his help but it was getting dark

and wanted to get the hell out of there.

With a shaking hand, I called him

Within 10 minutes, he parked behind me.

We exchanged some words and he was about to start on my tire.

When the winds got stronger and lightning appeared.

We both ran to the car, soaked and cold.

He gave me his jacket, he had in his car.

That night, we started to get to know each other more.

We had more things in common than we imagined.

We continued looking at the rain but our eyes would meet once in a while.

Our hands met while trying to put the heat on.

Our eyes meet again, he leaned in...

That night I felt warm and safe, right next to him.

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.
