10 Times You Should Get An Abortion

I absolutely adore babies—having a baby is one of the biggest things I am looking forward to for after graduation. I want a family, and I want all of the joy that comes with having a baby. However, I always knew that sometimes there are unfortunate circumstances where a baby was made in horrible acts full of lust and not love. For those circumstances I supported having a choice, I knew that I would never take advantage of abortion, but if someone else needed to that wasn't my business. My entire view on that changed when I watched a video on Facebook. I recommend watching if you think you have one view on abortion that will never change, I thought the same thing but I was wrong.

The only time you should get an abortion is:

1. If you never want to feel your baby kick for the first time.

2. If you don't realize how much of a gift it is to be growing a life inside of you.

3. If you don't want the overwhelming joy of finally bringing that life into the world.

4. If you don't want to hear your baby laugh for the first time.

5. If you never want to look at the purest and most innocent soul in the world.

6. If you want to spend the following years consumed with "what ifs."

7. If you don't want to see your baby grow from nothing to everything you've ever dreamed of.

8. If you never want to experience the peace of a sleeping baby on your chest.

9. If you want to throw away years and years of possible memories and lessons.

10. If you want to give up the chance to fall in love in a whole different type of way.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
