Your Jim Halpert Is Out There

Here's a little prefix to Jim Halpert if some of you readers do not know who this amazing person is.

Jim Halpert is a fictional character from the show, "The Office." He is in love with the Pam (the receptionist) at the office. The two are best friends and their personalities click. Well, Pam is engaged with a tool and Jim sees her each day knowing he has can do nothing, but wait. Wait for a miracle or wait to tell her the honest truth about how he feels. He knows Pam isn't happy and wants nothing else in the world but for her to be happy. The day comes and he goes for it and she denies it. So, he begins to move on and switches jobs. Pam ends the engagement and now Jim is seeing someone. The tables have turned and one day it finally clicks to Jim. Jim waited for Pam for over four years to be with her. Keep in mind this didn't happen over night. It took days to years of watching and waiting. Waiting for the moment of the unexpected to happen.

Jim Halpert is the aspiration for all those who want to wait for the love we've always imagined. But, we aren't patient people in this generation. Everything is instant. We want everything at the palms of our hands with no excuse of it not being there. Jim Halpert showed us that waiting is all you can do no matter the circumstances. And doesn't that show character beyond words.

He's out there for you. Don't lose faith- Jim Halpert is the kind of guy that gets you on his humor then everything follows. He's kind, caring, thoughtful, goofy, devoted, loving, goal minded, truthful guy.

This fictional but yet all to real character puts my faith towards men once more. (I may sound loopy, maybe a little) Yes, he isn't real, but it gives me an idea of what true love actually is. Naive me thought I knew what love was, but I was sadly mistaken. Love is patient. Love is kind. Love is waiting. Love is being devoted to the one person you can not go a day without thinking about. Love is sticking with you through the hard times. Love is doing anything in your power to make this person happy. Love is everything.

Jim Halpert is what all hopeless romantics are seeking for and trying to comprehend this mysterious love that we see hundreds of people have each day for the one person that they see makes the world turn for you. The person that makes their heart skip a beat and butterflies swirling. This person is someone they would die for. This person is in all ways perfectly imperfect to them.

He's out there wandering around and maybe he's thinking about you, but he quite doesn't know it yet.

As Jim Halpert said, "There is only one thing that outweighs every other concern. One that will make you give up on everything you thought you knew. Every instinct. Every rational calculation. Love No matter what happens, you've got to forget about all of the other stuff. You've got to do everything you can to get to the one woman who is going to make all this worth it. At the end of the day you've go to jump."

We all have our definition of what love should feel or being like. I hope Jim Halpert gives you a better understanding of what you deserve most in life. Which is happiness and unconditional love.

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.
