To The Boy Who Restored My Faith In Love

I gave up on love a long time ago, but when I found you, you made me believe in love again.

First and foremost, I want to thank you for making me believe in love again. It was not just the words you have said to me that made me believe again but the way your actions proved love to be true. For the longest time I never thought I would find the right one, but instead of dwelling on that I focused on bettering myself. As for you, you thought time would find me and you were right. Time found us. Even before we started dating you and I were constantly finding ways to spend time together even if it meant to spend it with other people too. Whenever you lost something, I was there to find it, every time you told a joke I was the one laughing. You never failed to put a smile on my face and you still don’t.

To this day I never thought someone could love me as much as I loved them, but you do. You always compliment me no matter how messy my hair is or how baggy my clothes are; you still think I’m beautiful. You have given me a stronger confidence in the way I perceive myself. You understand me when my words don’t come out right and you don’t make fun of me for it because you understand I just cannot say certain words. You are my shoulder to lean on when things are hitting the fan for me. When I cry you are always the one who comes running to wipe my tears away (literally). When we argue you never scream or yell at me but instead your first instinct is figure out how to fix the problem (sometimes I have to compromise because you are sometimes right). You never criticize me for being wrong, even when I have argued my point a million times. You believe that me being short is the cutest thing ever, even when I’m struggling to reach the top of the cabinet. You understand how particular I am of doing tasks a certain way. You understand me in many ways, from the way I speak to the why I act the way I do in situations. You understand that I am human and make mistakes but you still think I’m perfect; you find me flawless from the way I move to the way I look at you. Most importantly, you understand that my future is vital to me and you support what I want to do, no matter how many times I want to change it. You have made me believe that love is real and I thank you for that because now I’m not letting go of it. I love you.

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.
