Take a Moment and Spread Love, Not Hate

Take a Moment and Spread Love, Not Hate
Maxpixel.freegreatpicture.com

We live in a world that is so quick to judge one another. We find ourselves competing with those around us constantly. We have to bring others down to make us feel good. All of this hate and judgment can easily be removed from our lives and hearts by doing one thing. And that one thing is to love.

By spreading love, we can change the world. We can encourage others to take risks that might terrify them. We can support others that are doing their absolute best. We can truly be happy for people when they soar. We need more love, in a world that is full of judgment and hate. There is no need for this hate. No one is superior; we all have strengths and we all have weaknesses.

I am not perfect. From time to time, I get that little green-eyed monster, or I break someone down. But at the end of the day, I have to live with that idea that I broke someone down or that I stopped them from soaring and doing their best to make a positive impact on the world.

Take the time to appreciate those around you.

Everyone has a place in this world and everyone was put here to impact it.

Everyone you encounter is meant to do great things.

Everyone you meet is capable of so much and only they know their limit.

Take the time to spread love and make a positive impact in the lives of people you know, people you come across, and the planet you live on. You can make one person's day by just smiling at them. You can make the planet the better place by recycling and reusing water bottles. Such small acts of kindness, go such a long way.

Maybe, we forget that we can do small things and still impact people and the planet in such a big way. We do not need something grand to make a change. Start today, spread love and encourage others to bring their best and positively impact the world.

With your help, the world will be a happier and brighter place! :)

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.
