11 Quotes You May Need To Hear
Quote Fancy

Sometimes, we all need to hear something we did not know we needed to hear. Quotes are my favorite because there are so many good ones that can describe how you are feeling at any time. Here are 11 quotes you may need to hear.

1. Nothing in nature blooms all year long. Don't expect yourself to. -Unknown

I think this is important to remember, especially when you might be feeling a little upset because you couldn't accomplish something. It's okay to remember that you don't "bloom" all year long. Just relax and keep going.

2. It doesn't matter how slow you go as long as you don't stop. -Confucius

Because not everyone goes at the same speed.

3. Don't confuse your path with your destination. Just because it's stormy now doesn't mean you aren't heading for sunshine. -Unknown

This is something to remember when you feel like everything is going against you.

4. A flower doesn't think of competing with the flower next to it. It just blooms. -Zen Shin

Stop looking and comparing yourself to others, and start doing what it is you want to do.

5. Have courage and be kind. -Cinderella

Two important traits someone can have.

6. You can't change the ocean or the weather, no matter how hard you try, so it's best to learn how to sail in all conditions. -Jimmy Dean

This is almost like going with the flow, but better because it's saying to adapt to all conditions, no matter how difficult.

7. Create a way, not an excuse. -Unknown

Stop making excuses and start doing the thing.

8. Go the extra mile. It's usually never crowded. -Unknown

This is one of my favorite quotes because it's true. You'll be surprised how rewarding it is to go the extra mile.

9. No one ever damaged their eyesight by looking on the bright side. -Unknown

Always think positively and look on the bright side.

10. Stop looking for happiness in the same place you lost it. -Unknown

This is important to remember because happiness cannot be found in the same place it was lost.

11. You are far too smart to be the only thing standing in your way. -Jennifer J. Freeman

Don't stand in the way of yourself while achieving your goals and dreams.


These are some of my favorite quotes that I love. I hope you did, too.

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.
