To The Ones Who Are Finding Themselves Again
"She doesn't belong to anyone and I think that's the most divine thing about her. She's found love within herself and she's complete alone."

This goes out to all the girls who loved with all they had and yet it still wasn't enough. This goes out to all the girls who had to find themselves again. This goes out to all the girls who can't easily be broken...this one is for you.

I know what it is like to go through heartbreak; to love someone so much and give them all of your time and energy. You dedicated your whole life around that one person and you started slowly losing yourself in the process of loving someone else with your whole being. It was not healthy, it emotionally and physically drained you. Because when you love someone like that and do not take the time to focus on yourself do you truly even know who you are anymore? Do you still remember how to be yourself on your own and be happy? And while doing all of this, giving that person all your time and all your energy, you were still left heartbroken in the end. It doesn't really sound fair does it?

Well, I have got some good news for you.

So keep your head up buttercup.

Right now, I know it might really really suck, but like most things, time heals all wounds. So, it might not be tomorrow, next week, or even next month, but slowly and surely you will start rebuilding that independent person that you once were. You will start smiling by yourself again. You will find your own reasons to be happy. You will do what you love again, without any hesitation. You won't have to worry about anyone else, but yourself. You can go on all those adventures that you were never able to before. You can treat yourself, wine and dine yourself. Girl, be that better version of yourself that you could not be before, the you that you wouldn't allow yourself the time to be.

Take random road trips with your friends. Get dressed up and go to that really expensive restaurant. Go to that 6:30 a.m. workout class and kick some butt and make a new you. Go to the movies alone (sometimes it is more fun that way). Go downtown with your girlfriends - I promise it is a fun time!

Remember, now is not the time to look for something new with someone else, but to focus on you! Also, first and foremost seek the Lord with your heart. He is always close to the broken hearted. He will bring you peace and comfort. Good things will come into your life, you might think it is random, but it is all in God's perfect timing.

Wear that smile big and proud. Love others and most importantly love yourself. Be you again.

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.
