Hey you,

No matter what's going on, it's always going to be okay. Please stop saying slightly worrisome things like you don't want to be here and making people worry about you. I know you probably don't want to be here. If everything seems as if it's not going the way that you want or expected know that things usually work out in the end. Everything has seemingly served a purpose up to this point in your life. So please, please, stop stressing about everything going wrong.

If you can't stop crying, that's alright, it's going to eventually stop and you'll be able to breathe through your nose again. No worries.

Be patient. You're not the only one that's going through things. We all have our own problems. We all have our own burdens. You are never, ever, ever alone.

Also-- you do have a purpose. You've made more of an impact on people around you than you know. Always remember that you are gonna be alright. It's so absolutely okay. You matter. You matter to your entire family. You matter to all your friends. And your fur-children!!!

Please be patient with that little mind too. Sometimes it's going to tell you like you're no good and you're worthless. But trust me, you're really not. You are good. Your life has worth. You are worth so much to so many people. It's not fair that your mind does this to you and makes you think otherwise but you constantly have to remember that you are loved and that it's going to be alright always.

I know some days it seems like there are no reasons to do anything. Stay in bed. Take a break for an hour (or a day). But don't let your mind ruminate. Stop letting it control your mind!

We're going to be alright.

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.
