I'm telling you. It's not that serious.

Why You Shouldn't Freak Out About Switching Zodiac Signs

I am a Capricorn. That's what I've always been and that's what I'll always be. In fact, I remember when my mom would tell people that I was a Capricorn before I even knew what it meant to be a Capricorn.

For the most part, others are similar to me when it comes to their zodiac sign. We base the way we live, think, and love off of the date that we were born on. We embrace our signs. We become our signs. We take pride in what makes us tick. Most importantly, we grow to love our signs and ultimately, ourselves.

And we go through life this way. We go through life with this basic understanding of who we are. Ofcourse, we pick up others traits and perspectives as we grow and earn but when it comes down to it, we're true to our signs. That is, until NASA threw us a complete curve ball.

That's right. As if the most recent rumor that we may have to commit to a different zodiac sign wasn't enough to shake us up 5 years ago, NASA has done.

The agency introduced us to Ophiuchus, or as most of us have heard, the supposed 13th zodiac sign. This constellation was initially looked over by Babylonians about 3,000 years ago in order to create their original 12-month calendar. My thing is, if they over-looked it, then why can't we?

We are all settled into our signs and it doesn't really make a difference now. In my eyes, the original 12 zodiac signs are enough for me. We are who we are. I am a Capricorn. That's what I've always been and that's what I'll always be.

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.

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.
