Hey readers! I decided to write this week's piece on just how vast our imagination can truly be. It all begins with the hope and belief that such wonder exists within us. You could find yourself anywhere you wanted- near the sea or dancing on the clouds. The possibilities are endless, but when we wake up, that awe doesn't have to leave; dreams can help us achieve our goals in reality. I used to find this idea too good to be true, but when you place more faith in who you are and where you want to go, you'd be surprised how your approach changes. I hope someone out there finds this poem worthwhile in their pursuit of dreams. Much love and peace to you!


I dreamed that

I travelled all around

Somewhere in the places

I encountered trees and grass

So lush, they seemed to be like

An emerald, so mysteriously vibrant

The ocean sparkled like

The brightest crystal, it's blue deep and crisp

The birds sang together like

A symphony of wonder, the rhythm somehow familiar

There were flower beds that spanned

As wide as the eye beholds with colors

Mirroring a painter's pallet

Clouds appeared more delicate as if

They were bundles of pillows

A mountain was off in the distant and looked

Majestic and so sure, a sense of awe filled me

How dazzling this dream was for

Everything in it was made definitely

Every detail seemed to be more amazing than

The last, as I tried to wrap my imagination around

Such a world like this

The sun warmed my skin,

Reminding me of a blanket on a winter's night

As the wind whirled effortlessly and gently around me,

A tear dropped into the waves of the sea, for I wondered,

'Does this imagination truly belong to me?'

It was surreal at best for a world such as this

Placed my doubts, fears, and negativity to rest

It was like the home of anticipation

The beginning of motivation

I wanted to see more

And then, I awoke, in reality's realm once again

Yet because of that dream

I knew my dreams of the present

Stood a fighting chance

Until next time

Dreamland

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.
