10 Signs Your Dog Is Your Best Friend
Sam Drew

Obviously, you tell them everything, you miss them when you are a part, and you have a lot in common! But here are some more ways to tell they are your bestie 5ever:

1. If he/she is the first person you think of when you are sad or lonely

No better way to cheer up than to cuddle with the one who can always sense when you are upset.

2. When you are on vacation and your whole family can't help but think “where's (dog's name)?”

Your pup is definitely part of the family and family time just doesn't feel right without them.

3. You talk to your dog more than real humans

And they listen far better. It is all in their big beautiful eyes that stare up at you and respond I understand.

4. You want them to enjoy your meals as much as you do

As long as they are polite beggars, the food will continue to mysteriously fall on the floor. Because when dealing with your best friend, what's mine is yours is the only motto.

5. They are perfect company, like that friend that you can just do nothing with and be perfectly content

They sit there and you sit there and all is right in the world.

6. They are much easier to get along with than your siblings

So by nature, you have many more photos of and with them that you proudly show to all your human friends (way too often).

7. Their excitement is contagious

When you return home after time apart and they run to the door and sniff you like crazy with their tail wagging, you feel more loved than ever before.

8. They motivate you

When my dog hears the word walk, she runs in circles. How could I say no to exercising when it makes her so happy?

9. They accept you for how you are

They don't care what you look like and how much you talk as long as you rub their tummy and scratch their ears and spend time with them.

10.They unconditionally love you and you never want to imagine life without them

Whoever decided dog years are a thing and made it so we constantly outlive our best friends was satan. You will never forget the time and love you shared with your dog.


They get you through everything and in the end, isn't that what best friends are for?

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.
