You know that feeling of hopelessness, well that’s how I felt…

We all might wonder why things happen the way they do. I know I do, but sometimes it’s for the best right? I don’t know how some people can even handle this type of situation. Me on the other hand, I get pretty upset. I mean it is okay to feel upset, it is part of being human. We all have feelings and emotions that need to be expressed at times in our lives. Well, that is what happened to me. It came to my realization how many things I have lost after putting just so much effort into. You know, I don’t think anyone would want to work so hard for something, something happen, and then it seems like you just wasted your time. I hate that. I know that will happen in life, but it is just so frustrating and annoying. Why did I work so hard to get where I am just for something to go wrong. It honestly makes me feel very hopeless. I shouldn’t feel that way, yes I know, but I did. It clearly wasn’t easy to accomplish everything that I did. It took long hours, practice, running all over the place, and no sleep. I will say I’m glad for everything that I accomplished, but then when I try to take another step to something else, it didn’t quite go so well. I just wanted it to better my life and future. This might sound like I am giving up or something, truth is, I am not. I will never give up on anything I want. I’ll do anything to make them happen.

I thought my whole life just went crashing down. But, that is what I thought, after listening to people’s advice, I re-thought my problem. It came to my clear hard-headed self that there is more out there. It isn’t too late for anything as long as you know that you are working for it now to make them happen. Maybe that didn’t hit me because I was just so caught up thinking how hopeless I felt. Now that it hit me, I feel much better, I feel confident, and motivated. At the end of the day, I am aware of my own accomplishments and opportunities I have received. I am satisfied with everything and ready to accomplish more things each day.

For those who might be feeling hopeless as well, don’t quit, don’t give up, keep standing tall and move forward. If you keep feeling the way you do, you’re the only one holding yourself back from doing better things. Stop feeling so afraid, defeated, or just angry. Instead, learn something new and move on. Think about it, at the end of the day, you are the only one who got yourself, your friends or family may support you, but it’s not them creating your life, you are. You have a control of your life, so make it all count. Nothing is worth losing, life will not always turn out the way you want it too, just accept it. I am done feeling so hopeless and I am now ready to move forward and continue the good I have been doing so far.

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.
