Special People

We all at least have one person in our life that is special to us.

I believe God places people in our lives for a reason. Some of these people are here to teach us a lesson, help guide us along life’s journey, and for so many more reasons. These special people or person in our life may only be around for a season or for our whole life. In those particular seasons God knows who you need there and who you don’t need there. These special people can be a family member, a close friend, a coworker, a spouse, a teacher, a church member, or whoever. No matter what part of your life they showed up they become very special to you.

These people display so much strength, love, and they always put others first. They are the true definition of a caring and people loving person. They could be breaking on the inside but on the outside they walk with their head held high and a strong face on for the others around them. You can go to this person for anything and they always give the best honest advice. These people are not perfect, they may fail daily but they move on and learn from those mistakes. These are the people who honestly lead by example, they actually practice what they preach. They love no matter what.

To some this special person in your life can be the meanest person they have ever met but in your eyes they are just a strong person who may not deal with people’s nonsense. They even may find themselves worthless and don’t see themselves as you see them. Sometimes in life it’s okay to have someone that thinks the sunrises and sets with you. We all need someone who sees our worth more than we see it in ourselves.

I am thankful for every person that God has placed in my life. Some are very dear to me and mean the world to me. Some of them only lasted for a season and some have been in my life for a few years. I’ve learned so much from every single one of them. Some taught me not to take life so seriously and some taught me that it’s quite alright to have a tender heart. I’ve learned about God from most of those people and they have displayed the love of God like no one else. I like to think these special people God place in our lives are angels in disguise.

God has placed one particular person in my life a couple years ago. This sweet soul is so dear to me. They display so much love and strength. They show that it’s alright to be angry sometimes and to not be okay sometimes. They are honest and always put others first. I know that God has placed this person in my life for a reason. In these short few years they have taught me so much about life and hard work.

It is okay to display love, to show someone you care for them, and to let them know you are there for them. When people tell you not to love so hard make sure that you love even harder. This world needs more love and more special people.

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.
