10 Reasons Why Moms Rock
Alexandra Meduri

Mother's Day yesterday probably served as a great reminder to you; a reminder that your mom is the bomb. Seriously, moms are such amazing women. None of us would be here without them, and they've done so much to shape us into the people we are today. Here are 10 reasons why moms rock:

1. They're selfless

Moms are always putting others (especially their children) before themselves. They generously give us their time, effort, and love, without grumbling or complaining. Moms would do anything to make sure we're happy, healthy, and comfortable. I think that makes for a pretty selfless person!

2. They're kind

Friends can be catty, teachers can be strict, and boys can be hurtful, but moms are always gentle and kind with us when we need it the most. When we're having a bad day, we can go to them for comfort or words of encouragement, no matter what.

3. They don't judge

Our moms have seen us at our very worst. They don't care if we aren't wearing makeup, haven't showered for two days, or have on an outfit that's considered a fashion disaster. Whether we're feeling sad or acting silly, we can express ourselves without our moms making us feel bad about it.

4. They're fashionable

Make fun of mom jeans all you want, but you know your mom is fashionable. She's your go-to girl for fashion advice, your trusty shopping buddy, and probably has a few fashionable pieces of her own that you might want to steal....

5. They're hilarious

Whether they're trying to learn our teenage lingo or cracking a witty joke, mom's have great senses of humor. They can make you laugh with the wacky things they say and leave your sides splitting for days.

6. They're patient

We test their patience a lot, but mom's don't give up on us. They know that we're difficult and indecisive sometimes, but they deal with us anyways, because they know that we aren't always annoying.

7. They're trustworthy.

Moms will take your secrets to the grave. You can confide in them about your problems and insecurities, and you know they'll respect your privacy. Sure, everyone can be a blabbermouth at times, but you know you can count on your mom when it comes down to it.

8. They're honest

Mom's can be brutally honest sometimes. We don't always want to hear what they have to say (because let's be honest, the truth is hard to hear sometimes), but they tell it to us straight for our own good. Moms will always be honest and open with their children.

9. They're stable

You can always depend on your mom when you need her. A good mom makes sure her children never wonder where she is and why she isn't there for them. Moms make sure that they're present, and are stable and steady for us.

10. They love us

Through our angsty teen phases, tantrums, stubbornness, and flaws, mom's love us no matter what. A mother's love for her child is unconditional, and she always makes sure we know it.

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.
