As people, we go through things that will make our minds wander through the seven wonders of life. We encounter countless things to make heavy weights on our minds and make a heavy heart. But when it comes to telling the truth to our feelings, we dare not to fully articulate how we really feel. How can you tell someone the truth of personal feelings, when uncertainties are formed, and then the feeling of being vulnerable? Expressing your feelings is never an easy task, and it'll never get easy, when one person

Countless times, when I've said and done, "If I don't express the way I feel how can it backfire on me at the end?" Foolish thinking that was. When holding back the truth, people still find ways to be upset with you or pressure you to tell them the truth. When expressing your feelings to a person you like, or interested in most times it's hard to explain what's going on in your head and to get it out verbally. That moment of "what if" hits hard, then you pull back the truth, and tell them something jokingly. I have done this countless times, and recently too. You want to open the doors of my mind, reach inside and see my nude thoughts.

If you are human, then anybody should know when it comes to our emotions we may have everything all figured out in our head, but can never articulate them to another person. Feelings they come they grow strong, and when it's time to talk about them, you can't without so much passion, sometimes frustration, emotion. So why tell the truth of my feelings, when I can just hold back, and just scratch the surface. Not saying to decipher them like a codex, or puzzle to be finished. I've been in a position twice now, where I could boldly express the way I feel, but in the end nothing good comes out of it. I explain where I'm coming from and it seem like nothing even matters.

Be very lucky for the few who can express themselves openly, a lot of people say that they can express how they truly feel but that isn't always the case.

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.
