Pressing Redo

If you could, would you?

Have you ever considered what moment you would go back and experience or even change if it was possible? This has always been one of my favorite questions because there are so many wonderful things that happen to a person, how could you only choose one? I have spent a lot of time in thought over this one question, but I finally came up with an answer. My answer.

If I could go back in time to change something I have already done, to have the option to redo something I wouldn't change what I had done, I would simply experience it again. I have no regrets for the actions I have taken, I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. As horrible as it sounds I would pick a time that brought me to my knees with sorrow and self doubt, because in this pain I found myself.

In this moment in time I questioned everything about the person I was because I wanted to know why, why this had happened to me, what I had done to deserve it. Pain and sorrow wear on a soul, but happiness is only best in the moment it was designed for. I believe going back to a moment of self questioning would change my outlook, I could understand just why. Maybe I could actually be okay with it.

Without the bitter the sweets would not be as sweet. Nothing can ever be worth it if there wasnt something in the way. How can one feel accomplishment if there were no hardships on the way? How can one appreciate genuine love when they have never feel heartache? Do you really know if you are high if you have never felt low?

So think about this, if you could go back in time and experience or change anything you have ever done; what moment would you choose?

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.
