Why Reminding Women Of Their Worth Is So Important

Have you ever come across a girl's Instagram post one day and noticed a ton of her friends, or even just acquaintances, are filling her comments up with love and encouragement? Reminding that girl she is beautiful? That's amazing, I think that we need more of that. I think there are a few steps we can ALL take to empower our fellow women. After all...

"Empowered women empower women."

It is so easy to feel like you aren't good enough. You see the celebrities in the magazines, on social media, and on TV and you are constantly comparing yourself to those people. That was your first mistake. You don't know what they really do to look like that.

So, the first step? STOP comparing yourself to others or believing you have to meet these unrealistic expectations.

Something else I have noticed is that women are talkers, whether they do it on purpose or not, they talk about others. They comment on appearances, clothing others wear, and someone's attitude. But why do we do that? To make ourselves feel better?

The second step? Whatever reason drives you to talk negatively about others, stop doing so.

Instead, let's talk about the positive features that person has, tell that person to their face something you like about them, or like mentioned before, comment on their social media. Remind people how great they are, because a lot of us need that reminding. It's so easy to get down on ourselves, our appearance, and a small action like a comment can really turn someone's day around.

The third step? Let's remind other women their worth, their beauty, and be encouraging.

So, if you haven't already heard it today: you are amazing, you can do great things, you are one of kind. Never EVER think otherwise.

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.
