Change Is All About Perspective
https://www.pexels.com/photo/macro-outdoors-perspective-rocky-268953/

Everyone sees the same world through different perspectives. We are all different and we all have different opinions, views, and attitudes. As life moves along, our perspective of the world changes. When we are children we have nothing to fear, nothing to worry about, and nothing to stress over. Children live in a life of bliss, but as we grow older we are shown the true realities of the world we live in.

Throughout our life, we begin to realize not everything is sunshine and daisies and through this process, our perspective begins to change. Maybe we aren't as happy as we used to be, as determined, excited, thoughtful, open-minded, or adventurous, I could go on and on. When the world shows us these faults we begin to think that nothing will ever be as easy as it once was.

Through changing my perspective of life, I have truly altered my overall attitude towards just about everything. Doing this may not be easy, but it is something that I believe is incredibly beneficial. When we realize that the world, is in fact, not out to personally get us something switches inside. People have so much hate or resentment towards things they forget to enjoy the good in life.

Changing your perspective is as easy as not letting every little hiccup affect your day. Learning how to forgive and forget, look past things, stop stressing and see the greater good will allow each and every one of us to live a full life. Altering your perspective is as easy as not letting negativity come in and ruin your day, or not letting the stressors at work affect your attitude.

We all have things in our life that we don't enjoy, or that we think aren't good enough. Humans tend to believe that every issue they are faced with is a problem when in reality it is just a learning experience. Learning experiences make us who we are today. They make us brighter, stronger, and more in tune with our body and outlook on situations.

When you love who you are and you love your life, you come to understand all it took was changing the way you look at it. Perspective really is key, and when you change it your life goes alters only for the better.

On the Upper East Side, Blair Waldorf is an icon. She's what every girl aspires to be. She's beautiful, confident, and can handle any obstacle that life throws at her. Sure, she may just be a television character. But for me, she's a role model and theres a lot that can be learned from Queen B.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

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. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. 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.
