Get Off The Roller Coaster That Is Your Relationship

It’s time to end the cycle.

You knew what you were going to get yourself into when you met him. You were about to get onto one of the biggest rollercoasters life has ever given you.

Eventually, you would have to get off, even if you didn’t want to.

You knew you were going to fall for everything he said and listen to him as if everything coming out of his mouth was true. Maybe it was at one point, but after going through all the ups and downs, hundreds of times those meaningful sayings would just turn into words.

As soon as the ride seemed like it was about to end, he would lavish you with all the “I love yous” and would try to convince you that this time around it would be an easier ride and things would be different. Truth is, you fell into the trap.

Every. Single. Time.

You knew that this whole thing was going to be a never-stopping roller coaster, that it would take you through the same loops and turns every time you got on to the same crazy ride. You knew you hated the feeling that rushed through your body every time you went through the loops and falls, but that never stopped you from going back a hundred other times.

Again, just when you were about to get off, he always knew how to make you go just “one more time”.

You thought to yourself, “Maybe another time around would change everything." Truth is, no matter how hard you tried to skip all the HUGE drops, it was the same ride you’ve been on before.

At the end, you would still feel the same shitty way just like all the other hundred times the roller coaster ended. It’s not his fault that you fell for his tricks over and over again. Don’t make another mistake by falling for it “one last time”.

It’s time to end the cycle. Get off the freaking roller coaster.

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.
