People Who Live Differently

Sometimes, all one should do is look deep enough and see who the person really is.

People Who Live Differently
Anna Dziubinska

Some are born to live:

To coast through life day by day.

Some are born to be productive:

To work through the world and gain.

Some are born to explore:

To discover new and exciting things.

Some are born to be angry:

To bully their way through life.

Some are born to be saints:

To help those in need and others.

One of those who is helpful is Clarissa. Clarissa is outgoing and fun to be around for sure, but she does what she can to help when one calls for it. She does not complain, and she accepts people with open arms. Whenever someone needs help, she comes around. She will make sure everyone is cared for around her. She has even helped two little boys find a loving home with her family. Clarissa is one of the greatest friends to have and hold.

One of those who are bullies is Florence. Florence goes around, making sure people are nonproductive and unhappy at work. He tries to belittle his coworkers and those who work under him—making them feel insignificant. He will constantly yell in the office acting like a two-year-old boy who is having a tantrum. Florence makes sure to keep face around customers, but even then, sometimes he lets it through. Sometimes, though, one must wonder what Florence went through to become as he had.

One of those who is adventurous is Rachel. Rachel strives to become different each and every day. She loves the outdoors and photography. She would love to be a photographer one day. One of her goals is to go on a nice, long road trip with her family. She tries to eat healthily and to motivate others to do the same. She will explore new foods and new ways to keep her happy. Rachel lives to different and to have fun.

One of those who is productive is Ken. Ken works every day, keeping to the goal of providing for his family and his projects. He strives to be a service leader in the community, and he will be there if you call on him. Ken has excelled in school getting his Master’s degree. It allows him to have a better job in the end. He will work and strive to be better for himself and those around him. Ken works to keep busy.

One of those who lives day by day is Daniel. Daniel feels like there is no purpose, not seeing what others see in him. He coasts through life, not quite understanding what there is to offer. One of the things he will look forward to is when his friends come around, but they cannot always stay. He works and then goes home, never striving to do something different. Ken never sees the light at the end of the tunnel as he buries himself in nothing.

There are all different people who walk around us. One could act a certain way to one group, but then to another group, one would keep a different persona. One could act the same way around everybody. But in the end, everyone has a core value which can be seen. Sometimes, all one should do is look deep enough and see who the person really is.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
