Has someone ever said to you, "You're acting like you're mad at the world" or "You look like you're mad at the world"?

When that happens, you might think to yourself: Maybe I am mad at the world.

If you have thought that to yourself (I am mad at the world and everyone in it), I want you to think about what has happened that caused you to feel that way. I want you to take into account what actually caused you to feel this way.

Ask yourself these questions: Am I just not in the mood to be around people? Am I just angry at something that happened in the day?

These are two questions that will help you understand what is making you mad at the world. Answering these questions fully and honestly will allow you to take another moment to really understand yourself.

So if you answered yes to the first question, then why are you not in the mood? Are you depressed? Are you just tired? What is causing you to not be in the mood to be around others? When you have identified that and understood that, then see what you can do to fix it. Maybe you have to fix yourself.

If you answered yes to the second question, then the main thing to do is to understand what you can learn from it. Take the time to look at everything as a positive, or in other terms, a blessing in disguise.


By the end of this, I want you to be able to have identified the true problem, able to understand why it is the problem, know how to fix it, and continue to fix it when it occurs again.

This will help you to continue the journey of understanding yourself and understanding how to express what you truly feel.

This is important because we have be able to fully communicate how we feel in the best way possible.

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.
