To let go isn’t to forget, not to think about, or ignore. It doesn’t
leave feelings of anger, jealousy, or regret. Letting go isn’t about
winning or losing. It’s not about pride and it’s not about how you
appear, and it’s not obsessing or dwelling on the past. Letting go
isn’t blocking memories or thinking sad thoughts, and it [...]

I’ve made up my mind,
Don’t need to think it over,
If I’m wrong I am right,
Don’t need to look no further,
This ain’t lust,
I know this is love but,
If I tell the world,
I’ll never say enough,
Cause it was not said to you,
And that’s exactly what I need to do,
If I’m in love with you,

Let me take you on a trip
Around the world and back
And you won’t have to move
You just sit still
Now let your mind do the walking
And let my body do the talking
Let me show you the world in my eyes
I’ll take you to the highest mountain
To the depths of the deepest sea
And we won’t need a [...]

It probably goes without saying that being a female definitely has its perks. I remember just this past year, I went clubbing for the first time with some of my girlfriends for my 20th birthday. It was all fun and games getting dressed up–or down, I should say–but when we actually stepped foot on the lamp-lit pavements [...]

I suppose it would have been more helpful if I posted this up earlier. But anyhow, it’s 4 pm (well in this part of the US, anyways) and the polls don’t close until 8, so make sure you get out there and exercise your right as an American!
P.S. The title of the video is a little [...]
