Believe it or not guys aren't everything...

Hey y'all
So today I feel the need to clear something up that I think is pretty foggy for all of us girls whether we want to admit it or not. Lets face it we are at the age where were beginning to be pretty into guys and the attention we put into that can take away from a lot of other important things in life. Like guys have suddenly become everything I mean even for me ,most of my friends are guys and yeah I'm stereotype boy crazy right now which sometimes gets in the way of the things that actually matter. Guys are fun and great but don't let that take you off the path your on. Everyone has goals for their future and no matter how great a guy is or how much you like them just remember they are not worth sacrificing your future for. Now I know you all think I'm headed down the sex lecture but that's actually not it at all, I'm talking about school or sports ,things that will get you to college and scholarships for college. See you can be anyone you want to be and do anything you want to do but you have to stay focused and honestly at our age we have so many distractions and hormones that staying focused can be a true challenge. I'm not perfect I'm actually the farthest thing from perfect ever , i get distracted and caught up in guys liking me all the time but having my long term goals really helps me stay on track. I want to be a pediatrician and in order to get there i have steps to take and goals I'm working towards. Having those goals and keeping God in the center of your life is really the key to keeping on the path to success. when we drift from God we start to question things and we all do it so as that happens we just need to make sure were getting back into the word and making sure our faith is solid. At times we think we can tackle the world on our own but we cant and God knows guys better than we do he knows that we get hormonal and distracted but lucky for us he can help us overcome all of that we just have to let him. I'm not saying I'm against dating or guys or anything like that ,I'm totally into it ,we just need to make sure we don't let whats new and exciting in the present take us off the path of our long term goals.

Be Good to Yourself!

Everyone deals with stress in life no matter how young or old you may be. I know this is a topic I've touched on several times, this is due to the fact it is an ever changing, ever growing concept. Stress is constantly coming in seemingly endless forms. The specific aspect of stress that I want to focus on today is the fact that when were stressed, we typically take that stress out on ourselves. This is pertaining to how we treat our bodies, both physically and mentally when were stressed. I have experienced this a lot lately. Junior year has been crazy as I'm sure most of you know either from past experience or current. There's stress on getting grades that colleges will accept, ACT/SAT, getting volunteer hours, internships, upholding a job, playing sports or being active in school clubs, and so much more on top of trying to stay sane... In my most recent experience, I have come to the conclusion that when I'm stressed there are times that I'm not good to my body. ...

Love Yo Selfie

Often times when you think about "love", where does your mind go? For some of us it might be the love shared between a couple or a family, friends etc. Rarely however do we think about ourselves. The world can feel like its spinning a million miles an hour, I know mine is. We spend so much time making sure everyone else is okay that we often times neglect ourselves. We love everyone and try to make sure they know that, but what about making sure we know we love ourselves? That were happy with who we are? You may be thinking I've gone crazy right now trying to tell you to love yourself lol. I'm serious though, we are our biggest critics and I feel like we spend so much time critiquing ourselves that we forget to be happy with who we are. We tend to excuse mistakes of ones we care  about, as we should but then we dwell on our own mistakes and let them tear us apart. We need to show ourselves the compassion we show others and we need to be comfortable with who we are as ...

Learning to Praise in the Midst of Pain

Many of you have probably heard the saying "Learn to dance in the rain". Personally that quote is one of my favorites because of its versatility, it can apply to anything from the smallest complication to the biggest catastrophe. On thing that we don't usually remember though, is to praise God when things go wrong. We always thank him and praise him when he blesses our lives and lets things go right in our eyes., but how about when things go wrong? I think often times when things go wrong we draw away from the Lord when really he's asking us to draw more near. God has a reason for everything and his perfect plan for our lives will prevail with our cooperation. So that being said, things may be going "bad" in our minds but if that a part of God's plan for us then things really can't be that bad.  When we learn to praise God even in the times we want to crumble, it shows our devotion and it causes us to lean more prominently on the Lord and less on wor...
