There Are Voices In Your Head

Am I hearing things or is someone actually saying something to me?

There Are Voices In Your Head

There can be moments where you feel like you're losing your mind. Why? You hear thoughts jumbling themselves up and you don't know what to do next until you make that final decision. In Pinocchio that would be Jimmy Cricket as his conscience but we don't get that. We get multiple voices in your head trying to tell us what to do. Sometimes it may make you question:

And other times you may think why do we have these voices in our heads. It's a never ending conflict but from my perspective it's

good because you can vent to yourself,

but bad because they may not fully know you as a person

There are moments when you're faced with a tough decision and you do not want to go to anyone for help or advice, you want to see where you take yourself. However, it's always difficult to make such decisions no matter what mood cycle you are in. Talking to yourself about it in public wouldn't be the best idea since you may end up being mad fun of for it. Sometimes you have to go to those voices to make the choice you may need to answer at that last second; even then the voices in your head won't help you right away since they don't know you that well all the time. When they do know you, however, they may end up helping make that choice you were going to go with all along. The voices are also

good because they help you communicate with people,

but sometimes the wrong thing could slip out.

When you feel like being social you just automatically go up to the person without thinking of more words to say than "hello, how are you?" Half the time the voices give you good topics to talk about so you don't scare away the person you're talking to. Other times an inappropriate comment would slip out making the conversation awkward and everything silent.

Don't let these voices fool you, they can end up making you or breaking you in the near future. You just have to be careful with how and when you listen to them.

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.
