May this Valentines Day hold all things "Heart" friendly and only "Him"!

The day dedicated to Love is fast approaching and requires a team from your head down to your toes, your board of directors so to speak! Your heart will be the CEO, the ultimate decision maker but a team that has your heart's best interest at hand is a must! On your board of directors invite you mind, eyes, ears, mouth, hands, and feet!

Bottom up! Not tequila but your board! Your feet, do they run to the phone to see if it's "Him" calling, texting, face timing? Do they hurry to answer the door on date night? Do they save that special dance step just for "Him"? Do they send a message through every part of your body when he asks to help you take off your boots or the heels you've been wearing all night? When he lifts you off your feet does it take you to a higher place? If yes? Move to the next board member.

Your hands hold a special spot on the board. As he reaches for your hand is it warm, familiar yet exciting and adventurous? Does it tell you and everyone else that you're "His"? When your fingers trace his mouth does it feel like a priceless conversation? If Yes, move on.

The size of the smile you wear says everything without a spoken word! Bringing us to your mouth. When "His" lips touch yours is it "His" name you taste? Do you feel a welcomed weakening in your knees? Does "His" kiss say "Hello Beautiful" in the quietness of the moment?

When your eyes look at "Him" do they find "He" was already staring at you? Do you see "His" eyes catching the beauty of your broken yesterdays; not seeing the weight on your shoulders but instead the wings on you back? When even your darkest days are blinded by "His" light. Yes? Next.

Your ears! One of the important senses! A valuable board member! Your name never sounded as sweet as when spoken by "Him". It's not just what "He" says but in the way "He" says them, like whiskey that is smooth with a slow welcome burn that becomes a warm spark inside.

Does "He" crawl inside your mind and has it running wild? Are your legs tired from chasing "Him" through your mind all day? Does it replay the best, better and hopes of yet to come over and over? When you are both tired but want more time are your dreams a meeting place? Then decision made!

So why do I need a board of directors together with my heart you ask? When my heart knew all along? With all the fish in the sea swimming toward you know some may be sharks, so make it unquestionable that you swim only to "Him" because "You" have too much to offer to be half loved or once bitten twice shy!

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.
