9 Things You Need To Let Go Of This Fall
@loudmorgs

Fall has a way of taking our breath away and reminding us of how amazing the world around us is. It is also a time for letting go. As the autumn leaves let go of the trees and fall, it is a great time for us to let go of a few things in our lives as well. It is a chance to let go and grow with the seasons ahead.

1. Let go of a bad habit.

Whether it is as simple as filling up your gas tank before it hits empty or binging on Netflix the night before a test, letting go of a bad habit never hurts!

2. Let go of that one piece of clothing.

We all have it. That one shirt or a pair of pants covered in Taco Bell stains and love, letting go is going to be hard, but now is the time my friend.

3. Let go of that ex.

They are not worth it. You keep going back and all you get in return is more heartbreak. Let them go and open you up to a new year and new possibilities. You deserve it.

4. Let go of shoes.

It seems silly, but we all have a pair, or fifteen, like this. Donate them! They have only been worn once or twice and are just sitting there.

5. Let go of toxic people.

This one is hard, but until you let them go you do not realize how much they were poisoning you. Sometimes you have to let go of the things you once loved dearly.

6. Let go of that anxiety.

Whether it is over tests and sitting alone in the cafeteria, let it go. It is easier said than done, but letting go of even one of the things that worries you the most is incredibly freeing.

7. Let go of the need to control.

Another hard one, but we cannot control everything in our lives, much to my chagrin. Sometimes you have let go and learn to roll with the punches.

8. Let go of the contents of your fridge.

A simple one, but something that so many people need to do! Cleaning out your fridge not only makes room for all of the holiday leftovers but also allows you to take control of an aspect of your life in a healthy way!

9. Let go of the anger.

Whether it is the guy who cut you off in traffic or the best friend who changed a painful way, let it go. The anger and hurt you are holding onto is only making you feel worse

Let it go. Whether it is one thing on this list or all of them, just do it. Like the leaves falling from the trees, it is time to let go. and open yourself up to the beauty and new beginnings of the future.

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.
