We are living in a time where, for some, the changing happening around the nation is seen as strong, impactful, and living up to some individuals values. But that is not the case for millions of others.

Some people are waking up and being greeted with the news that they are going to be affected in someway or another. Everyday, a new group of minorities are targeted and impacted.

If this is the case for you, I want to remind you of some things. If you need to be reminded of this everyday, then read this everyday. But remember, you are WORTH IT.


1. You will never be silenced

You will use your first amendment right to stand up for what you believe in.

2. You have the power

If you're a high school student, you can do it. If you're a college student, YOU can do it. If you're a parent, YOU can do it. Everyone has the power of CHANGE in their hands.

3. You have my support

And so do MILLIONS of others; I promise you.

4. You will make it

Don't think about the alternative ending. Set your goal and let that be your vision.

5. You CAN push through

Don't let the failure demon drag you down. You are so much stronger than that.

6. Wake up everyday with the urge to fight

I know this is a tough one, but if you need to cry and think about the horrible things do it, but always remember you have to wake up the next day with the urge to fight. It doesn't have to stop when the tears are too much to handle.

7. Listen to the people who disagree with you the most

Nothing will happen if you don't get a change to work with the other side. There can be some common ground that might save a lot.

8. Always remember that it ismore than okay to fail at first

If you don't succeed the first time, always remember to get back up and try again. You never know when the right time will come.

9. Surround yourself with people who want to fight the same fights

Make a group, join a group, or even make donations to organizations online. When you are a part of something special, you know you are doing something big.

10. Take care of yourself

Love what you do. Do it with a passion. Do what you do for yourself and the community.

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.
