The Magic Tree

Oh come won’t you accompany me,

On a stroll through the park,

Tonight to visit the magic tree,

And our tragic happiness we hold in our hearts,

We’ll leave tonight when all is silent,

The night will be our disguise,

As we escape from all the shit,

That we face in our everyday lives.

Deep into the park we stride,

Further from our dismal homes,

To reach the spot as old as time,

And a world of our own.

So come let’s visit the magic tree,

To a place where we belong,

As our hearts are filled with melancholy glee,

A place where we can do no wrong.

They say we are vicious,

Carved only from stone,

Because our emotions,

They refuse to condone.

They mock our dreams,

Tell us were better off dead,

And they can’t hear the screams,

That echo through our heads.

The magic tree comforts us,

It fills our minds with peace,

A place where we can learn to trust,

And love this misery so sweet.

Come follow us to freedom,

From this sick reality,

To our Garden of Eden,

At the foot of the magic tree.

Here we are with others,

Just like you and I,

Forced to live and suffer,

With those feelings they must hide.

In this dark and dismal place,

The tree will give us hope,

A chance to finally escape,

All we need is those two ropes,

Tie them onto the branch

Then we’ll join the magic tree,

And those poor souls who never had a chance,

Just like you and me.

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.
