Moving on isn't always bad.

When You Finally Realize You Need To Move On
Brianna MacDonald

Some people think you need to fall out of love to move on, but that is not always true. Moving on means, realizing you deserve better and you know that better is out there. Even if you do not want to believe it. With experience you feel like there is no one out there better, but you don't need to move on with another person. You can move on by just being with your girls or family.

What people don't understand is that moving on doesn't always mean leaving one person for the next. Everybody has different ways of moving on. Whether it's buying a dog, an animal in general, or even if you want to another person. Whatever you think is right, that's what you need to do.

Now, how do you know when to move on? When you get the feeling of not being worthy anymore or being wanted. That's when you should move on, now let's say this again. When you should move on, it doesn't mean you always will. Take it from me, I still haven't moved on from my ex and I'm completely okay with it. It's when you feel like it is the right time and the best time to finally move on. When you can't take anymore of the fights, lies, or anything. It's when it's the right time for you, not anyone else. When it is the right time for you to move on.

When you do decide to move on, it's the time to stop the I'm sorry's and I love you's. It's time to do everything for yourself and no one else. It's time for you to be happy and not make anyone else happy. It's time for you to love yourself and no one else stepping in the way of that. What I'm trying to get at, is it is time for you do everything for yourself and love yourself. It's time to finally realize your self-worth. Normally going through a heartbreak does that, you love the love for yourself and you just lose yourself completely.

You need to realize when it's time for you to move on. You need to realize what you can't take anymore and how much you can handle. After awhile, you learn to just accept it, but when is it enough for you? When is it time for you to do something for yourself and not worrying about anyone else? It's time for you to move on, even if it's the last thing to do. If you know you need to and you deserve better, then go get better. Whether it's by buying food or hanging out with friends. Go do you and move on. Here I'll say it again, move on and do you. You can still love them and be there for them, be there friend if you want. But do yourself a favor and realize it is time for you to move on. You will be happy with your decision in the end, even if you are miserable now. Remember, you need to realize when it's time to move on and go forward with you life. Don't always be stuck in the past.

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.
