What's Your Art?

Everyone has one, what's yours?

What's Your Art?

Everyone has an art; a skill. Something that makes them unique and stand out in the world. Sometimes, that art is found early in life. It is easily discovered and evident to everyone.

However, for others, it may take years to unearth what it is they are good at. Great at. What it is that makes them who they are.

The art you possess may not be what you expect it to be, but sometimes that’s the most beautiful part; learning something about yourself that you never saw coming.

Finding your art and searching for your art are very different things. It’s like the saying goes, a watched pot never boils – time feels so much longer when searching for something to happen. When you find what you’re best at, it will happen when you least expect it.

There are so many things on the internet, and in society, that try to tell us what we should do, what we should be good at, and when we should find our niche. However, half the fun of finding what it is that makes you who you are is discovering it on your own.

Searching through social media outlets and across the web to validate something about who you are is only doing one thing; selling yourself short. Never settle for anything, especially when it comes to unveiling a part of who you are.

By just living every day with the mindset that you are here for a reason brings you one step closer to finding your art.

Our art should be something we are proud of; something that others know solely because we radiate it through our being every day.

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.
