To all my high school graduates, you have made it, against all the odds against you.

You are now walking down that isle. Chins are held up high, hearts fluttering like a humming bird. Your friends and family watching you, tears glistening their eyes as they watch their son, daughter, niece, nephew grandchild and best friend Graduate. I am here to tell you that you are in for another adventure as you start close this book of your life.

You remember what you went through to get to this very moment. The tears and frustration you went through the get that good grade. The laughs you shared that brighten the school. The bonds you made that are tighter then ever. You have gone through chapters, theirs titles vary and sometimes those tiles were filled with sadness or even anger. Because every book always has that story that makes you hesitant, makes your struggle. Yet that has only made you stronger as you learn to continue ton to the next chapter.

Not many have gotten this far and I'm glad to see that you have as I said against all odds you are here now as high school graduates. You may have had people who doubted you, who called you a failure who said you wouldn't amount to anything. excuse my language as someone said you are only a f*ck-up. Yet look at you now. You have proved them wrong standing there and light surrounds and smile lights up your face as they say your name and you walk up and accept the diploma. The diploma that represent success proof that you are everything. That you will be something .

You will be the person you have always looked up to . Your dreams and wishes have started to slowly come true. I am proud that I was able to see some of my friends as they went though high school and now to are off to college. There will always be these people who will disregard you and just as before will doubt you. You must remember your success you must remember what inspire you to continue to keep on fighting. And by some chance you forget, you doubt yourself. Look at your past, the struggle you had already went through and how you overcame it. Remind your self you are in control you decide your present and your future. Never give up on your self hold tight on to your dreams and ambition.

YOU HAVE MADE IT & NOW YOU BEGIN A NEW STORY.

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.

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.
