Why I Am Done With Hearing About The Election?
MTV News

As Mahatma Gandhi once said, "The day the power of love overrules the love of power. The world will know peace."

Regardless of who you voted for, I still accepted who you are, what you do, how you feel and everyone else should to learn how to do the same.

1. I am done listening to the election because Trump hasn't officially started yet.

With all of the news, press and social media, as people we have to understand that our president hasn't officially started his term yet. We have to a remember that nothing has happened yet and we must stay strong in hurtful times for those depressed.

2. I am done listening to the election because of the outrage of the people.

The hurt, sadness, anger, rage and misery is all over our world. The world that we are suppose to be able to call home, life and happiness. I cannot stand to find myself along social media, news, press because of the outrage of the people. Yes, we have the ability to express our feelings, however, I cannot stand to hear anymore.

3. I am done listening to the election because of the sadness people face.

The sadness I face for my LGBTQ, POC, Muslim/Non Christian, and immigrant friends. I am sorry for you and how you must feel at this time. I am sorry some people cannot accept the fact that we are all equal despite our race, sexual orientation, religion, identity and class. I am sorry you're rights as a human are failing you. I am sorry.

4. I am done listening to the election because of the sadness I've overcome.

I've overcome my sadness not because I don't care but because there is not anything more I can do. The only thing I can do now is to move on with my life and make sure my friends, family and coworkers are feeling better and better as the days start to pass.

5. I am done listening to the election because life must move on.

"Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep balance, you must keep moving" -Albert Einstein.

6. I am done listening to the election because I am still who I am.

No matter who our president is, what our world is coming to or how our own friends have changed, I am still who I am because of who I am. I will still be strong, independent, loud and opinionated. NOTHING will change who I am and nothing should stop you from being who you are, too. So show the world who you are and don't be afraid.

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.
