You're Not Sorry

And you never will be.

You're Not Sorry
huffpost.com

People come and go. Friends, significant others, and even sometimes family. It can hurt when someone you once trusted and actually cared for, or maybe even loved one way or another, betrays you. I've been there, we've all been there.

From time to time, new people come into my life and it's nice for awhile because it's nice to know someone new. The part that really hurts is when that person turns out to be everything you hoped they wouldn't be.

Learning to trust someone after being screwed over time after time can be hard. If the new people you let in turn out to be everything you were afraid of, let them go. If they try to come back, they'll probably do everything all over.

They're not sorry. They may say they're sorry, but most likely they're not. Most times people say sorry just to feel better about themselves and have a sense of a clear conscience. Not always, but most times.

Don't let people walk all over you and/or use you. I'm the first to admit, I let the wrong people in, one after another. It's not fun. If someone in your life hurts you, betrays you, lets you down, or makes you feel as if you're the problem and something is wrong with you, say goodbye to that person. They're not worth it.

Good people with good hearts are always the ones to get screwed over, just remember that. Those with cruel and empty hearts, are selfish and don't care about anyone but themselves. It sucks.

Unfortunately, just recently I had to go through this again and now I'm paying the consequences. I had to say goodbye and remove myself from an unhealthy environment and friendship. It honestly doesn't feel good. Many people will tell me, it's not my fault and that I did nothing wrong. I don't believe that. I give and I give, but everything is looked over and taken for granted. I guess I learned my lesson, again.

All in all, don't let other people make you feel worthless and terrible, because you're not. The people who do make you feel this type of way just are not truly happy with their self, so they try to make those around them feel bad. They may not even know that they're doing this.

Just remember, they're not sorry and they most likely never will be. Learn to let go and move on, because you did nothing wrong.

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.
