When To Let Go

Even when you think you shouldn't.

When To Let Go
hdimagesnew.com

The beginning of everything is always exciting and new. You get that feeling a young kid gets when they learn how to ride a bike… scared, but reckless. Falling in love feels exactly like that. It feels amazing, but on the inside you are absolutely terrified. What are you really scared of? Rejection? Unfaithfulness? Not sharing mutual feelings?

Instead of fearing it, you go for it full throttle. You give it all your time and effort, because maybe, just maybe this one is different than the last. You hope and pray that you found the one that is going to stay. The one who will sweep you dead off your feet and never drop you.

Instead of all the beautiful flowers and cliché messages all you got was heartache and disappointment. That “one” you fell heads over heals for changed their mind and has left you insecure and confused.

This is when you look at yourself in the mirror and say over and over again that you deserve someone who will give you the entire universe and not think twice about it. Let me tell you how much you are worth it. How you deserve so much more than just the universe. One day you will find that special someone that sees how worth it you really are.

Make a promise to yourself that you will let go when that little voice in your head says this situation is not right. Let go when you start questioning yourself. Most importantly, promise yourself that you will let go the very first night you cry yourself to sleep over the “one”, because let me tell you that the “one” will not let you go to sleep upset or mad. I promise you that it will never go away and when you have the wrong person in your life that you will not give up even after all the signs; God will allow this person to continue to hurt you until you realize. You are stronger than any of that, and until you see that all that you need to know is that…

You are Beautiful and you are worth it.

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.
