To my first heartbreak

Almost 10 years ago, I realized love is blind.

April 19, 2015 I remember it like it was yesterday. At this point in my life with you I was drowning in my thoughts and feelings I had. For months, and even a year at this point I had lost count how many times you let me down. This isn’t a letter saying how I hate you, but I got more of an understanding for myself and why I let you treat me the way you did.

Love is blind. I didn’t believe that the first time I heard that phrase, but the moment I knew we were over I saw the changes in you grew rapidly. I didn’t know who you were.

I’m getting ahead.

2014 is the year where you absolutely changed my entire life. I met you online not thinking anything of it, and out of curiosity I went on this app that I know you would remember, all the guys in there that I saw were not attractive to me at all and I went to deactivate my account.. but I saw you. Something struck me and this feeling inside my gut told me to message you. Nothing. For 3 months straight I didn’t hear not a single word back from you, until one day. We agreed to meet, and we saw a movie. The entire time I could hardly focus with you sitting next to me. My heartbeat pounded through my chest and though my eyes were struck at the screen, I sensed your eyes staring at me.

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.
