The Little Black Statistic, Part 3

After hours of laughing so hard they snorted and happy tears ran down their faces they paused as they shared a glimpse she never experienced before. He leaned in as he kissed her simple lips, her prince charming was here and he granted all the wishes she had ever wished for. They then began to make love.

It was her first time and he made it pleasantly perfect, he ends it with a kiss. He then places $7,000 dollars in her hands "thank yous were certainly the best I gave you a little extra since you were a virgin". She was confused as she walked out. She was under the impression that this was more than sex, that this was the start of something beautiful.

As the weeks go on she waits for a phone call from her prince charming as well as her period. Months pass and her relationship with her father dies for he had found out not only had she fallen pregnant but it was by a devilish white man from the north side. As one relationship died one is birthed as she gives birth to a prince she named Alexander. Knowing that he looked just like his father Alan it ate at her daily, seeing the reflection of a careless decision.

Months pass on and young, strong, Alexander grows, but his relationship with his father didn't, as it was nonexistent. She took Alan to court in hopes of getting support for her child because times were tough and she no longer could talk to her father. Nila's dad no longer could look at her in the eyes or even hold baby Alexander because he shared the same last name as Alan, and Alan shared the same last name as the bastard police officer who killed her mother Nikyla 3 years exactly of the birth of Alexander.

Now she would forever be held at close ties with her mothers killer, she will share a life, her most prized possession, priceless gift with the person who ruined not only her life but her family's as well. Nila physically lived on but emotionally she had passed. She became a statistic she never wished to be and couldn't accept any the college offers she was given.

Alone and taking care of her son alone left her left with no resources and no opportunity because she lacked the support she needed. She was later able to get Alan on child support but that no longer mattered. Now with money, she could take care of her son but the beauty and happiness she once reflected no longer existed.

She became bitter as she comprehended how oblivious she was. Naïve and reminded daily of what her father taught her to stay away from. What seemed to be greener on the other side came out to be nothing but dead grass and bullshit in the light. She lost her mind as well as her voice in life. Swallowing herself into a seashell of grief. Unhappily ever after.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
