10 Reasons Why Your Dog Is Better Than People
udderlypettable

As many people as you see in a day, they may never compare to your dog(s). Having a dog for a pet does not make the dog a "pet" by any means, it's just another member of one's family. Your dog(s) and you not only grow in age and size throughout your lives, but the love you have for each other grows as well along with an unbreakable bond. Nothing nor no one could ever replace your dog(s). Here are 10 clear reasons why your dog(s) is/are better than people...

1. They listen intently:

Venting to your dog(s) or any dog is easy and the cute sympathetic look they return guarantees they understand what you are going through.

2. They are the best cuddling companions:

Your dog(s) are way more comfortable to hold and watch a movie with than anyone or anything else.

3. They are the best car ride companions:

Your dog(s) will never argue with you on what song is going to play next. They will never complain about your driving either, instead they will sit back and enjoy the ride.

4. They are always happy to see you:

Dogs always greet you when you come home. Your dog(s) will always have a smile on their faces when you come home; whether it's been five minutes or the whole day,

5. They are nonjudgmental:

The only thing that matters to a dog is if you love them, show it and care for them, everything else is irrelevant to your dog.

6. Dogs can always put a smile on your face:

Between doing silly things (like getting their heads stuck in the food dish) to the most adorable things (like giving actual hugs), dogs know the way to make anyone smile.

7. Dogs are never rude:


Your dog(s) can and will never insult you or give you an attitude, they can only give you love.

8. You can never stay mad at them for that long:

No matter how many pairs of shoes, rugs, furniture your dog(s) may have destroyed over the years, it never took long for them to give you an apologetic look and all was forgiven. Dogs make it difficult to stay upset with for long periods of time.

9. They will walk to the ends of the Earth with you:

OK, maybe not to the end of the Earth... But dogs will gladly go on any normal walk with you and will always be there for you in any situation.

10. They truly are your best friend:

You cannot imagine your life without your dog(s), life would just not be the same if it was not for your dog(s).

If you haven't already today, give your dog(s) some extra TLC and possibly an extra treat.

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.
