What it feels like to fall in love.

The feeling of being able to see someone or yourself and just be happy. This is a poem describing that feeling.

What it feels like to fall in love.

The morning skyline crosses my face,

As the warmth of the sun hits my skin

For all I feel is secure and alive.

I have made it another day.

The gleaming light shines so brightly in your eyes

It is a view I shall never get tired of.

You slowly start to glow.

As if you are an angel next to me to make this feel like home

I cannot help but smile

Although it felt like days, months, years, or the eternity of time

It was only two minutes with you

watching the world complete another round

Seeing the secondary colors shine through

The beams of gold soar through the sky

All I could think of was just the light shining on you

And how your smile

It would still be more blinding than the eclipse

But now we watch the primary colors fade in

The glow on your skin is now going away in the golden hour

Lying down as the ball of light began to set

Watching the million dots above us

And seeing the constellations align forming Aries and Leo

I then look to you

Although the light is gone

It is still in your smile

Showing the universe does work in my favor

And that I got to spend another day with you.

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.
