It's Okay To Not Have All The Answers

What is it about the unknown that keeps us always wondering and wanting more?

In my opinion, there are two different types of people in the world. The people who want answers and the people who avoid those answers at all costs. I myself am in the middle.

Why do people go back to things that nine times out of 10 they most likely shouldn’t? People are comfortable with whatever it is that they are going back to, regardless of if they actually believe that they deserve better or even more for themselves.

People would rather go back to their ex then take the time in getting to know someone else; it is all-around common sense with the human brain. People stay at their jobs because it is easier, and they just don’t want the hassle with finding a new one. People do not change because they do not want too.

If you resist change, you are going to stay the same while everything else is changing and passing you by and growing. I have learned that you must change to survive in any situation on this planet. Change is the only thing on this planet that is consistent, whether you actually want to change or not. Embrace what is happening to you.

You can be the person avoiding everything or you can be the person asking questions and getting answers. Listen, you aren’t always going to like what you hear or what you find out, but that’s the point; it is all about growing and it is all about learning from different things.

The road less traveled is the better path to take. Going after what you want is the better plan with a lot more opportunities. I am a big case with this and giving people chances, but I will be the first to tell you to give someone a chance, or give that new job a chance; it is better to know than to always wonder 'what if' about something.

It is always better to be able to grow with yourself and be able to handle the constant changes that life throws around in this world. Human nature is to always wonder and always wanting more. We as humans are just programmed like that; you always want to be better, it’s just what we do.

I think that the people who avoid answers do so because they already know the answer, but to hear it in real life makes it actually real. So by avoiding those answers they won't have to believe it. I am a culprit of this on occasions; there are some things that people just do not want to hear, and there are some people who will tell you what you want to hear so that they do not hurt you along the way, which in reality is just going to hurt you even more.

Regardless if you are the person who avoids the answers or goes out and chases them, you are who you are and that is perfectly okay. As long as you know you are growing and that you do not need an answer for everything that happens to you. There isn't always going to be an answer and you have to be okay with that.

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.
