Stress: A Common And Unhealthy Habit
https://www.google.com/search?q=stress&espv=2&rlz=1C1AVSA_enUS425&biw=977&bih=531&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwibuoejrKTPAhXCFz4KHaBADnYQ_AUIBygC#q=stress&tbm=isch&tbs=isz:l&imgrc=uyOUEFdvKfZQqM%3A

Stress. It is probably one of the most common emotions a person in this era feels. From the people who are worried about their school work and trying to balance everything, to the people who stress out about the future.

Stress is in everyone, but sometimes it really really gets to you. That's when the smallest things seem as if they are impossible. That pile of homework becomes a mountain in your mind, that stress about the future becomes a panic attack. That is when stress gets unhealthy.

You can't control it. Sometimes it just hits like a boulder and you're laying on the ground with no air and panicking. To the people who feel that way right now, it gets easier. The stress goes away. Don't put yourself down because it's hard to finish that work.

Don't call yourself dumb, or bring yourself down because you think you can't handle it. You're incredibly smart and you can do it. Take a break from things that stress you out, sometimes you just need a mental break and that is okay. Life will take you down, just so it can prepare you for the issues you'll face later.

There's a reason for everything that the world is throwing things at you to stress about, so you can come back twice as strong. You can do this. You're going to succeed through everything, and you will be okay.

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.
