What It's Like Living Without You
Jordan Musick

Being forced to live without someone that has been a huge part of your life since day one is an extremely difficult, different, trying, and terrifying time. That time you think you will get over is the rest of your life - you're not getting over it anytime soon. So you wonder what it's like when you're gone. What will people feel like? How will they feel without you here? Let me help you out. It's the worst feeling in the world. You forget how to breathe, your mind is foggy, memories are all that go through your brain. You can sleep, you can't eat. You just feel like you're merely existing. What is life like without you here?

Without you my heart hurts - it physically aches. Without you my world is spinning backwards. Without you I'm scared. Without you I don't know where to turn next. Without you I have no where to run. Without you I'm alone. Without you I cry alone at night. Without you I feel empty and numb. Without you I have no one to talk to. Without you I can't hold my head up. Without you I can not heal properly. Without you I don't have a support system. Without you I feel like I'm drowning - in an ocean of sadness. Without you I'm sad. Without you I found depression. Without you I found a friend in addiction. Without you I can't move on. Without you I can't trust people. Without you I don't smile. Without you I'm fake. Without you I scream in agony. Without you I can't love. Without you I don't want to live. Without you I have no one. Without you my safe place is gone. Without I'm weak. Without you the struggle gets harder with each passing day. Without you my mind is fogged. Without you I physically can not move on. Without you it never gets easier. Without you I can't feel anything. Without you my heart is numb. Without you I'm just a lonely soul. Without you I can't see my future. Without you I can't even see the next few steps in front of me. Without you I can't sing. Without you I wish for the past. Without you I forget the sound of your voice. Without you I can't listen to certain songs. Without you Christmas isn't the same. Without you I dream of comfort. Without you I don’t have a cheerleader. Without you its hard to believe in anything. Without you I'm miserable. Without you I can’t grow. Without you I'm torn - straight down the middle. Without you I fear the future. Without I hate roses. Without you I cry when I see white S-10s. Without you I have to live my life differently. Without you I have to move on. Without you I have to face what lies ahead alone. Without you I have no one to give me your words of advice - your words of wisdom. Without you I am simply without you, and I don't want that.

I don't want to go or be anywhere without you there with me. I don't want to be happy without you. I don't want to be without you at all. I love you. I love you will all of my heart and I don't want to be without you, but I really don't have a choice. I don't want to move on without you, but you left me no choice. My life will forever be different without 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.
