Women Supporting Other Women Is The Best Thing To Happen To Our Society

We live in a society where it is "cool" to outdo each other. We make everything a competition. It is always, who has the better makeup, hair, outfit, etc. or who is in a relationship and whose significant other treats them better? EVERYTHING is a competition and it makes life exhausting. Instead of competing against each other, we should be working together, supporting one another and lifting each other up.

I have noticed within the last year that women are really starting to support other women, and I. AM. HERE. FOR. IT!

We Are Strong

We as women are taken for granted a lot of times. We are treated as fragile little people, both emotionally and physically. People think that we are not as strong as we truly are. We go through so much emotionally, spiritually and physically. We work so hard to reach our goals and our dreams. It is so nice to have the support of others, instead of them trying to constantly tear you down.

Kindness Is Powerful

When you are doubted by others, that gives you motivation to work harder and prove them wrong, but kindness and support is even more powerful.

Growing up, I was always doubted and knocked down by mean girls by anything and everything, whether it was my clothes, hair or makeup (or lack thereof). This gave me anxiety, stress, depression and self doubt. Because of the mean girls, I was self conscious for years.

When you have support and motivation from others, they push you to go above and beyond your original goals. They push you to be the best that you can possibly be, even when you do not believe in yourself, your girl gang will always believe in you and have your back through the ups and downs, and that is the best feeling in the world.

Building Each Other Up Makes Us More Powerful

When we support each other, we help each other grow in better ways and to be our best selves.

Building each other up only makes us better and stronger.

We should not be competing against one another. Tearing each other down only does more harm than good.

Women supporting women has been the best thing to happen to our society in a long time. We will all be better versions of ourselves and happier people when we support one another.

Being mean and petty does not help anyone and is always unnecessary.

So let's keep this trend going and spread kindness like wildfire!

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.
