To The Girl Who Hasn't Been In Love Yet

To The Girl Who Hasn't Been In Love Yet
Taylor Anne Pace

This letter is written to all the girls/women in the world that have not fallen in love yet in this particular point in time of their life.

I'm just going to start off by saying it's okay. That's right, it is okay. It is okay that you haven't fallen in love before. It is okay that you haven't found the "right person". You still have time.

Most people are nervous that if they haven't found their soul mate yet then they are going to be alone forever and that is obviously not true. You will find your one true love some time. You might meet him in your 20's or 30's. Or you might meet him after you divorced the guy that didn't respect you. You have no idea when you will meet him and that is okay. God is molding the man or woman; your significant other; just for you. He knows who to put you with. He knows who will appreciate you, who will love you like no other person has in the world. He molds the person who will be there for you when you are down, and to bring you up to the highest of highs when you need it. Have faith. Believe that He has a plan for you.

While you're waiting for God to throw that person at you head first, think of this time as a retreat. Sort of like a time to reflect. When you're single you are the most independent. Yes, you are still independent when you date, get engaged and marry someone, but when you are single you find your true self. You discover who you truly are.

You get to go out and go wherever you want to go. If your girlfriends want to go on a spontaneous trip to Michigan for the weekend, you're all for it.

You can travel. You can go do a back packing trip through Europe. Explore! Adventure! Experience everything that the world has to offer. Who knows maybe you can tell some of your stories of your travels on a first date.

You can watch couples. See what their struggles are, examine what it really looks like to be in a committed relationship. You will be shown that a relationship isn't a big fairy tale. You will struggle and fight, but the point is that you and your partner will get through those struggles and how you both come out of those situations will strengthen the love you have.

You can be picky. Learn this word: No. It is a very important word and you will need it in tricky situations or just any situations. Don't settle. Take time. Take time to find someone that treats you with respect. Find the person that loves you for who you truly are, no matter what.

Experience life. Take that trip. Realize that you don't need a man. Buy that house. Buy that dog. Just live.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
