Words Cannot Be Taken Back

Some Words Are Better Left Unsaid

There are things that should be left unsaid. Things that should be thought about before being said. When these words are said, they cannot be taken back. Words do hurt. Sometimes it is better of biting your tongue even when you know you want to talk back. During these moments, you either want to walk away and be the bigger person or say something back in return.

I have had my fair share of saying many things in life that I wish I could take back. Words that should have been left inside my mouth instead of coming out.

I have had many moments that I wish I could have bitten my tongue and walked away. I have had many moments when I have gotten hurtful things said to me as well. These past few weeks, all I have had on my mind was a certain night where someone and I exchanged some words. Hurtful words said to me and hurtful words I said to the person.

Not only words were said to me, but nonstop judgement about my life as well. I was hurt and still am to this day. It is hard because it hurts and it has been nonstop on my mind. Those plenty of hurtful things that were said to me, ended my relationship. It was with someone I cared for and still do to this day.

I am a caring, loving, understanding, passionate, confident, strong, and fun person. But sometimes, when that person proves to you that he/she does not deserve you, you have to be the bigger person and walk away. Why have someone like that around in life? It was not healthy for myself to be around someone like that.

I chose the best choice and ended it because it was best for me. Of course I forgive this person, but I will never trust him again and be caring as I once was for him.

One thing I learned about this is chose your actions and words wisely. Once you say something, you cannot take it back. Let that person think what he/she wants to think. In the end, It is about you and your well being. Always forgive, but never forget. Some people just are miserable and do not how to stop with their words.

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.
