10 Reasons Younger Brothers Are The Best
Beth Weeks

If you have a younger brother, you either get along or you don't. I've had the pleasure of having a brother I actually get along with, and that is truly a blessing. Likely, you and your younger brother have a bond. This bond is wonderful because you're not only siblings, but good friends as well. Little brothers are inspiring, even if your "little" brother is over six feet tall and over the age of eighteen. Here are a few reasons why younger brothers are the best.

1. They are funny.

Sometimes we pretend like our brothers aren't funny, but in all reality you share the same humor and you're both hilarious.

2. They'll always have your best interest in mind.

They know when that guy/girl is no good for you, and they'll probably tell you. If anyone messes with you, they're ready to go hunt them down.

3. They know when something you tell them is an unspoken secret.

I don't know what you're talking about, Mom.

4. When they're really good at something you get to brag to your friends about how awesome they are.

YEAH WELL MY BROTHER ONCE FLIPPED A GIANT TRUCK TIRE. WHAT CAN YOURS DO?!

5. They're down to do insane and usually weird things with you.

Make a music video on Dad's boat? Sure. Shoot full pop cans with a BB gun? You got it. Sumo wrestle on the trampoline? Be right there.

6. When someone acts like their brother is cooler than yours, you roll your eyes. Cause they aren't.

Sorry Becky, but my brother is the best. Yours is irrelevant.

7. They make you want to be a better person.

Younger siblings are impressionable. You want to try and be a good example for them, they make you a better person without even trying.

8. You get to ride with them after they learn how to drive.

Which is kind of scary, but hey. You don't have to drive them everywhere anymore.

9. They have pretty good advice, usually.

Sometimes it's actually good advice, sometimes it's funny, and sometimes it's just a really bad idea. But we appreciate it, nonetheless.

10. They have to put up with you forever.

Because family never ends.

Love you, little bro.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
