What We Can Learn From Autumn
Visual Hunt

As the temperature has started to drop, and the leaves have begun to fall off the trees, the Fall season has definitely welcomed itself with a wave of crimson and yellow hues. Along with providing us with its visual beauty, this season also offers us the chance to learn a few life lessons, too.


1. It is necessary to let things go.

Just in the same way that trees have dropped their leaves, we need to remember that we should let things go when they have essential become "dead" to us. Trees know it's time to let the leaves go that are no longer serving them and helping them live, so maybe we should follow by example and do the same every once in a while.

2. Change is good.

As the season changes, nature is aware of this change and takes the necessary steps to prepare for that change. Although sometimes when we can't always see change coming, it's always good to realize that it's inevitable in life and that it's going to happen, so why not embrace it?



3. Take a break.

Trees have started to lose their leaves to make room for new ones to grow, seeds have started their growth process in anticipation for the Spring season, and animals everywhere have begun their preparation for hibernation in order to recharge for a busy and beautiful spring season. Nature uses the fall season to relax and recharge, so why shouldn't we?

As humans, we are lucky to live in world that has Autumns, because along with giving us a beautiful spectacle full of rich color, they also allow us to reflect on ourselves.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
