The Power Of Taylor Swift

How a popstar connected to a teenager

The Power Of Taylor Swift

The goddess. The one. The only. Taylor Swift.

For as long as I can remember liking music, I have loved Taylor Swift.


Years later, I still love her. It's hard to explain why I have such a fascination with Taylor. I have so many friends that despise her and every time one of her songs comes on the radio, they immediately change it and say some rude comment.

My love for her is more than just purely about her, however. I love her music. If you are a young adult female, there is no way that she has never connected to you through a song. I have listened to her music during both the saddest and happiest times. Songs like "Fifteen" and "Stay Stay Stay" have sometimes so accurately described my life that I often wonder if TSwift follows me around.

The reality of it is, yeah like she said, my first kiss BLEW me off me feet. There is a time when I may have thrown my phone across the room hoping it would somehow hit my boyfriend almost 1000 miles away.

However, in each of her songs, these things have helped me think about my life and what is important. Yes, my first kiss blew me away, but my current boyfriend is more loving and caring than the boy who kissed me when I was fifteen. And yes, my phone may have cracked when it hit the wall, but after I listened to "Mine" or "Treacherous", I realized how ridiculous I was being and how important that relationship is in my life.

That is what makes her the best. She has a way of describing the lives of young girls all over the world without even knowing who they are. People will make fun of her and say she is trash...but not to me. I will always be a fan and will be thankful for the way she has helped me through her music.

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.
