What It's Like To Be In Love

If you've ever been in true love you'll know exactly what I'm talking about. There's that one person who drives you absolutely crazy. In good ways and bad. You fight over the dumbest stuff, but at the end of the day there's no one else you'd rather get in bed next to every night. You feel so loved, supported, and important. They make you feel good about yourself. They never tear you down. They make you feel beautiful on your worst days. They make you laugh even when you aren't sure you even remember how to smile.

When you're in love you'll do anything just so to see that one person smile. You'd drop everything just to make sure that their needs were met. You fight for them every day. No fight is too big or lasts too long. After a fight, you go back ten minutes later and it's like the whole thing never happened. The feelings you have never go away. They just keep getting stronger and stronger every single day.

You hear a love song and suddenly it's not cheesy and stupid anymore. You think of that person and smile. Maybe even shed a tear because you realize how lucky you are to have someone like them in your life. Any time something bad happens, you run to them like they are your shelter. You need them more than you need air. You can't get enough of them. The thought about them being with anyone else except you makes you physically sick.

They are home. They put your heart at ease. Things with them seem simple. When all hell breaks loose, they are the one you run to. You don't have to think about anything except the fact that you know that you are a hundred percent safe when you are with them. You are safe from physical harm, mental stress, and emotional pain. They are your sanctuary. They are your assurance that there is still some good in this chaotic world. They are your rock. The one stable thing you have. They are your home.

With them, you feel like you can conquer the entire world. No task is too big and no problem is too complicated with them by your side. Superman has nothing on you when you're in love. You'll do anything to make sure they are safe too.

But the most amazing thing about being in love is they make you realize that being in love is as great as it seems in the movies. Yes, you have your downfalls and fights but the love you receive and give is worth so much more than any of the negative things you could ever endure in your relationship.

Being in love with the right one will be one of the best things that will ever happen to you. I promise.

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.
