To The Girl Who Feels Too Much

You choose to see the world through your heart instead of your eyes.

To The Girl Who Feels Too Much
Molly Bennett

Hey you,

Some say you're too sensitive but truth is you just feel too much, ever since you were little you probably remember movies, television shows, books, music, small things, big things, all affecting you more emotionally than everyone else. Every word, every action, and every energy goes straight to your heart. When you feel too much you feel like you have too much soul for the body God gave you, the smallest thing can make you feel like you are about to burst with emotions. People laugh, or make comments about how you are "too sensitive" but as overwhelmed as you feel most of the time you wouldn't change the way you are. You love so much because you feel so much. You choose to see the world and people through your heart instead of your eyes.

You don't know how to feel anything other than intense. Every single conversation, thought, feeling is so intense. You don't know how to experience something without thinking and feeling too much. You are always searching, struggling to find the meaning in everything. Though you know some things don't deserve your time and attention, you still pursue them, it's who you are. You are passionate, deep, genuine, and you should be okay with that...you should love that.

Never let anyone make you feel bad or doubt yourself because of who you are and how you feel. Stay strong and find peace in the fact that all of you, every single little bit of you is true. You are not the kind of girl who wants to be eye candy...you want to be soul food. You want to feed others and share your emotions and feeling with them.

Please hear me girl: The world has enough women who know how to do their hair and focus on the shallow things. The world needs more people like you who are willingly to do hard and holy things.

It's okay to be soft, you don't have to let the world make you hard. You don't have to put on a shell of yourself to make others happy. You don't have to let feeling your emotions and pain make you hate. Do not let the bitterness steal your sweetness. You were blessed with the gift of feeling so much that you have to share your heart, be cautious in sharing it, but share it to help soften the hard hearts of others.

Don't be offended when they call you a fragile flower. Instead, weather the storms, reach for the sun and show them the strength and determination it takes for flowers to truly grow. Let your soul change the world one heartfelt conversation at a time, fragile flower. Remember to ask God "What can I learn?" Instead of "Why me?" It is a much better place to park your mind.

Stay tender,

Love your biggest supporter

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.
