To The Person Who Chooses To Love Me

Love me for all that I am.

To the person who falls in love with me,

First and foremost, I will never be perfect and I don't intend to pretend that I am. You should know that I prefer sweatpants and hoodies to high heels and jeans. I enjoy Sundays in bed, cuddled up with a box of pizza watching Netflix over going out and having to do my makeup. You should know that I'm a disaster when I wake up; my hair is in a messy bun on the top of my head, my clothes are far too big and yes, I have morning breath. You should expect that I will laugh until I snort, can't breathe and until I'm crying far more times in a day than are probably acceptable and I'll make sure that you do the same. You should know that I'm loud, obnoxious, and am very much a daredevil.

I will challenge all of your comfort zones and make you question the things that you thought brought you happiness. I will push you to reach all of the goals you deem unattainable. I will stand by you through your darkest days until you reach the light at the end of the tunnel. I will not change you, I will admire your flaws as if they shine as bright as the skies sun and I will hold you so tightly that all of the pieces you thought nobody would ever love about you become the ones I admire the most as they mesh back together. You should know, however, that with this love comes a girl who's absolutely wild and not for the faint hearted. I will not settle for excuses or lies, fallacies or betrayal.

I will give you all that I have to offer; smiles, happiness, companionship, and love, as long as you choose to love all of me. That means the morning breath and messy hair, eating full boxes of pizza with me in bed all day, laughing until we snort, bickering about what to watch and who gets to pick the movie–it means all of me. I'm done letting people pick and choose what parts of me they find worthy of loving. Love me for all that I am or watch from afar as I continue to love myself.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
