To Those Also Searching For a Beating Heart

"If you have zest and enthusiasm you attract zest and enthusiasm. Life does give back in kind" -- Norman Vincent Peale.

Passion is defined as an intense eagerness to do something. To act upon something. To accomplish something. To achieve the unachievable.

"A passionate belief in your business and personal objectives can make all the difference between success and failure. If you aren't proud of what you're doing, why should anybody else be?" - Richard Branson

When I meet someone new, I observe their zest for life. I want to see LIFE. I want to make friends with people who motivate and inspire me. Who better my own being. Who strive to benefit the world around them. Who see positivity where others may not. I want to feel their beating heart.


"Whatever you do, do with determination. You have one life to live; do your work with passion and give your best. Whether you want to be a chef, doctor, actor, or a mother, be passionate to get the best result." --Alia Bhatt

So, to those also searching for a beating heart:

Do what you love. Do what makes you smile. Do what makes you laugh. Do what makes your heart beat at the thought of accomplishing your goal.

Never stop pushing and fighting. Don't stop until you reach your goal, and, even then, continue to reach for more. Be headstrong and active.

Find someone who is just as passionate as you about something. It doesn't matter if it's about the same thing or varying subjects—you need enthusiasm.

"If you have zest and enthusiasm you attract zest and enthusiasm. Life does give back in kind" --Norman Vincent Peale.

Take a break now and then to appreciate your surroundings! The world and humanity are beautifully peaceful, inspirational, and tender.

Don't be afraid of failing. Mistakes happen. I'm currently learning this lesson myself. Although it's hard to accept it and not give up, we must endure the struggle, pain, and fear. In the end, it's all worth it.

In the end, I will never stop being enlightened by peers who are just as passionate about something as I am about humanity. When I see their heartbeat, I am reminded of my own living soul. This motivation keeps me moving, breathing, and acting. So, thank you to those beating hearts and, hopefully, the world will continue to fill with adrenalized beings everyday.

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.
