You can have the most amazing ideas, plans that would blow people’s minds and turn their worlds upside down. Unfortunately, especially for the younger ones, we have been limited by the cruel mistress named “Circumstance.” Regardless of circumstance, we don’t live in a perfect word and our opportunities are limited when you have to answer to someone. It can be a discouraging thought, that someone can’t do something because their lives have become so rooted in the places where they’ve built their lives. Sometimes the negative thoughts will even deter those thoughts from even forming. While it probably isn’t a good idea to break the rules and do something crazy, sometimes it may be worth breaking the rules to act on Love. That is something we cannot forget and must not ignore.

Some of our best minds are wasted because of the opportunities they’re given and some of our best hearts are wasted for the same reason. That is reason in itself to be grateful, when you are given the opportunity it cannot and should not be wasted. There are so many reasons why our plans change in this busy world we live in and so many reasons why we back out of things. Some of us are scared to put ourselves out there, some of us need the perfect moment to happen (but that’s where circumstances nasty meddling shows up) and it doesn’t, there are those of us who wait and wait but don’t have the right person to receive what they’re willing to give and some people are too afraid to break the rules. It’s the fear of being unwanted and the fear of rejection that drives some of us to go out and almost seek failure.

If we’re too afraid and something is holding us back, then the failure we experience is totally justified. It could be that two people would be perfect together, but she is too scared to even talk to him, or maybe she’s with the wrong guy and the shy scared boy would be perfect for her, but that guy who’s wrong for her at least had the courage to go for her. No sympathy should be given to those who are too scared and don’t have the courage to act on Love.

If that love is true and you care enough then you’ll be able to muster up enough courage, or something that’ll pass for it, and go for what you want. The worst thing we can do is to not act, to not tell people how we feel is a weakness that the lonely have. Sometimes things don’t go right and your plans just can’t work out and yeah, the atmosphere might not be the same; Love has its own atmosphere and can thrive in the least ideal of circumstances. If it’s rejection you’re afraid of. then try to remember that being hurt is a blessing because we grow from the things that hurt us.

Most importantly, if you’re just an idiot, stop overthinking it. You don’t have a ton of time, it keeps ticking away by the second and if you take too long, you’ll regret those lost seconds.

We cannot forget the intentions of people, even though it is easier to focus on their actions or lack thereof. Even though the scared deserve failure, it wouldn’t hurt to give them a break ourselves, Love is a two-way street after all. Although they may not carry out their plans, sometimes the people most scared can change the way some people view Love altogether.

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.
