To the empowered woman reading this,

You have endured unspeakable pain and despite your scars, you surpass every obstacle. You rise with strength and power that radiates off of you with brilliance. Each foot you place on the ground is with purpose and intention. When your feet lift off the ground you dance with every part of your soul. With every spin and every jump you feel invincible. There is nothing you can't do.

Sometimes being strong is the only choice you have, and the world thanks you for making this choice. Because you're strong, the world is changing for the better.

With every breath, fire escapes your mouth and ignites the ears of those around you. Your words are powerful and honest. You radiate with light and you influence every person you meet. You are unwavering in your beliefs and you are mature enough to respect others' opinions. Loud or soft, your voice is a sound wave that never fluctuates.

People are drawn to you with a force stronger than gravity. You are loved, feared, liked, and even hated, but your head remains high and your shoulders strong. People would love to see you fall. You ignore these people and focus on the ones who are there for you when you hold the power of the world within your clutch.

Most importantly, you are okay with yourself. Being alone does not mean you're lonely. You indulge in time that you have to be with yourself. You do not need a man or woman by your side to feel complete. You love who you are. You own it. Finding a significant other who respects your power and is not threatened by your strength is rare, and that's okay with you. You know that whether or not you find this person you will be fine because you have your strength to fall back on.

Never feel ashamed of the power and strength that you embody. Strut down every sidewalk and smile at every person who glares towards your direction. You are more than the judgments society creates about you. You believe in controversial topics like feminism and you are not afraid to speak your mind. You are brilliant and unstoppable.

Stay strong. Stay true to you. Change the world.

Love,

A strong woman with a message

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.
