Don't focus all of your time on some guy who did you wrong.

An Open Letter To The Girl Heartbroken Over Some Guy

"The biggest mistake one can make is losing yourself in the process of valuing someone too much, and forgetting that you are special too." -Unknown.

Relationships are hard. A relationship requires both individuals to equally want the relationship to work. They require trust and honesty and time. If one participant ends up having to babysit the other in fear of losing them, the relationship has become meaningless. You cannot just build a house without a foundation; that's crazy! In a similar fashion, you can't build a bond without trust.

There are way too many people in this world to even entertain the idea that you won't find your soul mate someday. However, you can't go out searching for that Mr. Right. That's not how life works. Life happens when you least expect it to. In Woody Allen's words, "If you want to make God laugh, tell Him your plans." God doesn't forget about anybody. He has a plan for every single person on this here rotating sphere that we call Earth.

As for the broken heart, it will mend.

"Everything heals. Your body heals. Your heart heals. Your mind heals. Wounds heal. Your soul repairs itself. Your happiness is always going to come back. Bad times don't last." -Unknown.

That's a very important statement to always remember. Bad times don't last. Do you really think Carrie Underwood still thinks about the guy who inspired the song "Before He Cheats?" Probably not. However, you can't let your broken heart define you. In order to keep moving forward and to find that special someone someday, you have to get out of bed. You have to keep living life. You can't avoid the world and wallow; that's nonsense.

There are approximately seven billion people in this world. Don't focus all of your time on some guy who did you wrong. Don't seek vengeance or harbor feelings of anger and sorrow; pick up a new hobby, exercise, meet new people. Live your life and love will find it's way. God has a promise and a plan; trust Him.

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.
