It's Never As Bad As It Seems
Allinitaly.org

We all have those bad days where we just feel like the world is ending and everything is crashing down around us. I've been there. I know what it is like to have those bad days or rough few weeks and just wanting to crawl into bed. However, if you're feeling like this, I'm here to tell you, it's not as bad as it seems. You're strong and you can get through this.

First of all, surround yourself with positive, good people. Cut out the negative and toxic people who only bring you down and make you feel negative about life. Find those people who will dance with you to your favorite song, get pizza with you at 3 in the morning and make you laugh until you cry.

Keep those positive people close and then find the good in life again. Try new things. Do something you haven't done in a while. Sit outside in the sun. Read a good book. Whatever it is that will make you feel like you're you again, do it. Do something for you. Don't worry about anyone else, just do something fun and exciting for you and you'll feel a million times better.

Believe me, I know how easy it is to fall into this funk and feel like the world is crashing down. All you want to do is sleep. You feel like you can't do anything and nothing is going right. I know it seems impossible to believe it will get better, but it will. Everything will get better. I know It may not seem like it now. But, it will. You are strong. You are brave. You can do amazing things. You are doing amazing things. Find the positive things in life. Don't dwell on the negative things or the things that could have been. Think about what you have now and where you're going. I know things may not have worked out like you thought or gone as planned, but everything will get back on track. I promise.

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.
