When You Know, You Know

Everything happens for a reason.

As a firm believer in the universe, I try to live my life based on the cliche quotes that you've likely tweeted one too many times. My favorite quote is a line by Marilyn Monroe, I believe that everything happens for a reason. For a while, no matter what happened, I was constantly telling myself that, no matter the circumstance or result, it was supposed to happen. At times I thought, there is no way this is supposed to happen like that, but I trusted the universe and just let it takes it course, and I am forever grateful I did.

Recently, I've began a life in the city. It's not something I was completely familiar with, but had an idea about. I left my friends at my old school, and am seeking new friends at my current school, and although these aren't always the easiest circumstances as a junior in college, I know it is completely worth it. I'm aware of this because of the feelings that overtake my body as I go class to class, and live life day after day. I can honestly say I know the exact reason that l transferred, and moved to the city: to be utterly and confidently happy. The city is a place that already has my whole heart and happiness, and it has only been about a week.

I have a constant feeling of excitement and pure joy like never before. Although, at times, I am unsure of many things, this is something I am positive about.

I'm not writing this to share my story about how I transferred, but rather, to let all my readers know that, it is okay to trust your gut. Those around you may appear to have believe they know what's in your best interest, but the only person that genuinely does is you. For some crazy reason, something invisible to the human eye has an incredible way of changing your life. If you feel like you're in the right place, you likely are, and vice versa. Our body's know us more than we give them credit for.

Trust your journey in life, because everything that happens is likely preparing you for substantial merriment.

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.
