10 Moments Every Book Lover Knows
ablogforyourthoughts.com

Reading a book can be like discovering a whole new world. For the curious and patient people among us, even the most dense academic books can capture the imagination for hours on end. But whether you're a self-proclaimed book nerd or just enjoy a novel every once in a while, you have probably experienced some of these moments.

1. When going to a bookstore or library is the best part of your day

If only I could be so graceful about it.

2. And nothing is more exciting than a shelf full of books

Don't worry Rory, we get you.

3. But you're having trouble picking just one

It might be unrealistic, but sometimes there are too many interesting books to pick!

4. Sometimes you're so into a book that you keep reading it everywhere you go

Just try not to trip or run into anyone!

5. And sometimes you're just a little too into your book...


Careful doing that in public, though. People will definitely stare. Trust me, I've been there.

6. ...and your friends start to worry about you

Don't worry Charlie, he's happy as he is.

7. And some people will just never understand

Stop trying to marry her if you can't deal with her reading a book, bro.

8. When a research project means literally disappearing behind piles of books

No really, it happens. And then people forget you're even there.

9. Then struggling to be polite to someone who keeps interrupting your book

Let's be honest here, nothing you have to say could be as important as my book.

10. And you hold onto every book with any sort of sentimental value

Okay, so maybe it doesn't have the girl of your dream's phone number in it, and you probably didn't spend years searching for it. But maybe your friend or teacher gave it to you, or you bought it somewhere special. It's still hard to let go of.

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.
