Perfection Exists Solely In the Mind Of The Weary

Practice what you preach, or you are preaching nothing but shattered truths.

We always have these expectations of what we think life should be like, but when it doesn’t turn out to be the way we want it to be, we blame everything and anything but ourselves.

We do not correlate our expectations to the things that don’t work out in the long run.

Why?

We are too prideful. We have a set way of thinking on how people should act and be and how situations in our life should be handled, but we never take into account that life is a game full of mystery and questions we will never know the answers to.

We hold our loved ones to such high expectations to how they should act towards us and towards the things we face in life, but when if they somehow have a slightly different outlook, whether positive or negative, on something you had a set opinion on, we blame them and assume them to not understand the situation fully or are just completely wrong.

How does that make us right, or better yet, how does that make us any different from the chaotic assembly of mindless zombies that are too involved in their own pride to see the life that exists out of their own little make-shift reality?

We need to accept people for their differences.

We need to accept people for their perspectives.

We need to learn to respect people for their perspectives.

Stop holding people to such high expectations.

Stop letting negative energies control your thoughts and provoke hate and dissapproval.

Surround yourself with the positive energies and vibes that you wish others carried in their hearts and minds.

Do not practice this mindset if you are not committed to influence others with your newly formed Ohm attitude.

Do not use this newly found and enlightened power to feed your own form of greed.

Be the good you want to see in others.

Be the good you want to see in yourself.

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.
