We'll be alright.

Poetry On Odyssey: For My Broken Heart

My dearest heart,


I know you're hurting right now, I can feel it too.

You were gone for so long,

And for what you've been through,

I want to say I'm sorry,

But it wouldn't be true.

You had a great year,

And we had a lot of fun,

So don't hide from your feelings,

Because he wasn't just anyone.

People like him are hard to find,

So stop the tears, straighten up, keep your head,

And be kind.

You loved him once,

And maybe still do,

So let go of your anger,

And we'll get through.

We'll keep a place for him,

Somewhere inside,

Not too big, not too small,

But good enough to keep our pride.

Let's remember the good times,

And reflect on the bad,

But mostly think about

All the fun that you had,

And the love that you felt,

For a true best friend,

Because if you hold on to anger,

We'll just pretend,

That we're over it all,

For the rest of our days,

And that's no way to live,

So let's praise

All the good times

And bad

We both know that really,

There's no need to be sad.

It's for the best for you both,

My little heart and him,

And the future is bright,

Even though it looks grim.

So I'll get the tape and some glue, and we'll fix you right up.

Because remember, this is only our first breakup.

But before we go off to find someone new,

Let's make a promise to ourselves, me and you,

To love ourself first, before anyone,

Because we're both in this for the long run.

When the curtain comes down,

And it's just us two,

I know in my heart,

That I love you.


- Me

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.
