Leslie Knope, AKA the wonderful Amy Poehler in disguise, is one of TV's most influential women in power. With her smart wit and even smarter dressing style, she rules the "Parks and Recreation" office and rules her life. It's no secret we could all use a little LK on the day-to-day.

1. Leslie Knope is no match for anyone who tries to walk all over her.

She fights for what she believes in and never gives up. Even Ron Swanson knows better than to argue with Knope. And, of course, frustrating, argumentative people like Jeremy Jamm don't even have a chance. You just got jammed? Nope. You just got knoped. Whatever, you get it.

2. She remains a true friend even though she is insanely busy.

I mean who hasn't thought about being her BFF? Or being invited to LK's Galentine's Day? Because we all know we would lose our shit if that was a real thing.

3. LK keeps it real 24/7.

She tells the truth and is intensely honest with everyone she meets. Leslie gets frustrated at times, but she knows how to get what she wants and still be her rad self.

4. She is the most organized person on the planet.

For a person who has a binder for every project, meeting and let's just say, a binder for every aspect of her life, it's no secret Leslie is able to impress anyone she comes in contact with. Not sure of your desired career path? Don't worry, Leslie helped April, and she can help you, too. Just give her 20 seconds to get your binder ready.

5. And the most thoughtful.

Who doesn't want a gift from Leslie Knope? She knows you better than you know yourself, and it's OK to admit that. Even for the stubborn and secretive Ron Swanson, Leslie knows just how to surprise, wow and blow any event out of the water.

6. Leslie isn't afraid to admit even she needs some encouragement from time to time.

Sometimes ,you are the only person who can lift you up, and Leslie knows that. You go girl.

7. She also has killer style.

I mean, who doesn't think she looks just truly radiant? I don't know what it is, but she's got it.

8. Leslie Knope always says "yes" to love.

BW + LK = LOVE FOREVER. I just cried a little.

9. She never stops.

I mean, who's to say Leslie Knope doesn't absolutely crush it every single day of her life? Because we all know that she does.

10. Leslie Knope treats her failures as successes.

She strives and soars, but even she, at times, falls. However, Leslie always remains her noble, stubborn, thoughtful and radiantly happy self.

BRB, gonna go watch "Parks & Rec."

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.
