Embrace Breakups Because They Lead You To A Better You

For whatever the reason may be that the relationship did come to an end. No matter what happened, breakups hurt very much, they are either expected or they come to you in a surprise. But in reality, it will come to the hurtful truth sooner than later.

But who says that the pain you're being exposed to isn't going to make you wiser and probably the best version of yourself? This is the time to turn the breakup into a positive experience.

This is the time for you to get to know yourself more, the time to spend time on yourself.

Probably start working on a new hobby or maybe start reading up on that book you've been putting up to the side. Life's too short to pin over the same person over, over time, but is okay to feel the grieve from the breakup. To cry as much as needed and let everything out. But try to get your mind off of things, start trying to get to know yourself.

These are things that may help you:

  • Getting a gym membership
  • Binge watch all of your Netflix shows
  • Get a new haircut, change your hair color.
  • You can start a new hobby.

Now it is the time for you, yourself and most importantly YOU. Now you get to go out with your friends and have a great time. Go buy that outfit you've been seeing at the mall. Go workout, invite friends for brunch. Get yourself a coloring book or just cry yourself to sleep listening to that sad playlist of yours on Spotify. This may be your first breakup, but sadly it won't be your last. So make the most of it, cry, grieve and feel it all but learn from it. Whatever you do, DO IT FOR YOURSELF.

Babe, you really got hurt but you don't just stop trying.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit.

With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
