I hope this year you take chances, find love, and make every day count

A Prayer For Your New Year
Laura Supnik

I think it’s pretty neat that even though time is just a agreement/illusion, that we still have goals and ambitions for the year that we use to better ourselves. I don't like that some people hate on New Years resolutions, I believe you're doing amazing by setting goals for the new year. I pray that all of your goals are met and that you exceed your expectations.

I pray that this year brings you genuine happiness. Everyone deserves to be happy. I know that we all go through so many different experiences that may not always be ideal, but it’s all for a reason. All your experiences will humble you later, you're going to go through so much. So whether or not you started your year off right, I hope you find positivity and happiness in everything. God has a plan for you.

I pray that you surround yourself with people who love and value you. You're worth so much!! Keep your circle filled with humans who want nothing but success for you.

I pray that 2018 brings you a lot of success. You cant expect success to be handed to you, so work hard towards your ultimate goal. Keep you goal in mind, envision it. You’ll have that sweet feeling of accomplishment one day!!

I pray that you grow outside of your comfort zone and that you find yourself. Growth is beautiful. I hope this year drives you to form your own options and try new things.

Most importantly I pray that you're healthy mentally and physically. I hope you treat your mind, body, and spirit with care and love. Self love is very real. Start showing yourself the love you would want others to show you.

I pray for everyone before myself because I know that even though it is very trendy to be “selfish” lately, and while that isn't necessarily a bad thing because it IS important to think about yourself first sometimes, compassion towards others is more fulfilling than anything else. It okay to be forgiving (given that you aren't repeatedly being hurt the same way by the same person), it’s okay to put others first, and it’s okay to let your guard down!! I pray for my family and my friends before myself. Pray for others and yourself because prayer is powerful.

I hope this year you take chances, find love, and make every day count.

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.
