I'm The Girl Who...

I am unapologetically me.

I'm The Girl Who...
We Are Pics

I'm the girl who hides her feelings.

I will always have a smile or kind expression on my face when you talk to me. I will always tell you I'm fine, great, or couldn't be better when you ask me how I feel. I hide how I am feeling because I don't want to bother anyone else with my feelings. I don't want someone to feel as if they need to help me or fix me. I have learned over the years to hide how I feel and work it out on my own so I don't inconvenience other people.

I'm the girl who is rather insecure.

People who know me may not know it, but there are many things about myself that aren't how I'd like them to be. I wish I was skinnier sometimes. I wish I could wear what other girls wear and look as good as them. I wish I was brave enough to try bold makeup. I wish I looked a little different sometimes. I stick to looking plain, because it doesn't draw any attention to me. I blend in. I look the part of the girl in the crowd. Do I want to stand out and be something people remember? Yes, but I don't want to have the wrong looks given to me.

I'm the girl who acts too brave.

Nothing can phase me to the outside world. I am strong, I have no fears. On the inside, I can be like chicken little. What I have learned is that people remember the pretty faces, but they admire the brave souls.

I'm the girl who speaks her mind.

I have my opinions and I'm not afraid to share them. Do they differ from many people I know? Yes, but I'm not ashamed of how I feel. I voice my opinions in hopes to show people how I feel and explain my beliefs and why I think the way I do. I don't share how I feel to counter the opinions of my friends and make them mad. We all have our feelings and opinions, and I will voice mine as I please.

I'm the girl who is strong willed.

Some may call me strong headed or rebellious, but that's just me. I don't back down often. I am unapologetically me, and am proud. I say what I think, do what I can, and I am who I am. Nothing can change how I am, and that's how it should be. No one can change me or make me in to something I'm not.

There are many sides to me. No matter how you look at me, I'm the girl who is doing her best to live the best life she can. And that's all we can really do.

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.
