The One Who Will Continue To Inspire Me

Inspiration doesn't always come from a quote.

The One Who Will Continue To Inspire Me
Alicia Bell

For many of you, you'll have no idea what or who I'm talking about, but that's okay. It's not really necessary for this article to know the details. Really all that needs to be known is that a very special woman walked into my life towards the end of 2016, and she ended up making a huge impact on me and my personal goals and aspirations.

For those of you who do know who I'm walking about, you know just how wonderful of a woman she is. The situation that is before us is highly unfortunate, but that's how life is sometimes. We need to remember that God will never give us more than we can handle, and He loves us infinitely. Even when we are the farthest away from Him, He is always right beside us.

To the one who made such an impact on my life, you know exactly who you are. You may not be reading this, but I hope you are. I know I only got the chance to know you for such a short amount of time, but I truly appreciate everything you did to not only grow me as a writer and a leader, but also as an individual. You have no idea how much I appreciate the time, hard work, and dedication you put into everything that you did. If you don't feel loved by everyone on the group chat, I hope that you will see how loved you truly are.

All of us EICs will miss you dearly.

-A.

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.
