To Love and to Be Loved

As we grow from a child to an adolescence we begin to realize what it should be like to love and to be loved. As an adolescence, we go through a series of relationships that show us what love really is and what it is not, sometimes what is taken for granted, sometimes what we forgot. When you're i n a relationship make sure you are with someone who makes you happy, you makes you feel good about yourself. Make sure it's someone who motivates you, encourages you, reassures you, and is there for you when you need them. Now we must understand it's obviously hard to find people like and on top of that makes sure you like and accept them as they are. You want to have some things in common and share secrets, but mostly laughs and lots of love. The most important thing of all is when you are with someone who loves you and you love them, don't let go.

Do not give up on them because of what is going on, you have to remind yourself why you started dating in the first place or why you said "I love you." I believe if you truly someone you will never give up on them no matter what the conditions are. When you really love someone, you won't ever stop loving them. True love does exists we must realize we love with our free will. We love a significant other because we want to not because we have to.

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.
