The Miracle Oil?

Can CBD really help heal my chronic pain?

The Miracle Oil?
PREXEL

Marijuana, weed, kush, ganja, reefer, doobie, and the green goddess are just some names for the cannabis plant according to time.com. Of course there are more terms and more slang names for this come people are calling the miracle, "herb," or drug in the 21st century, for curing their chronic pain and help manage the various autoimmune diseases that plagues many people in this day and age. Some people find people have found a lot of success with using CBD oil with decreasing inflammation, to having chronic pain completely go away within weeks (where prescription drugs has not decreased their pain in years) Also perscription drugs have a ton of side effects.....and to my knowledge CBD oil does not have any (little to no) side effects, which honestly is amazing. So, some of you are thinking (well, maybe, probably) why are you, the straightlaced Leah, writing about CBD? Easy, because I have autoimmune diseases, chronic pain, inflammation, and have to take a ton of prescription medications. I am sick a lot and in a ton of pain. I wanted to try something else to help my never ending struggle for a, "normal," life. So, last night I decided to look up different reviews on CBD oil and ordered a starter bottle. I am hoping that this is and was the key to myself and many others living a normal life. Because, just like a lot of autoimmune disease sufferers I am at the end of my rope!

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.
