11 Reasons Why We Should Love Our Pets More

Anyone that knows me knows I am a serious animal lover. I am that girl at the party that you find in some random room alone with the host's dog or cat. I volunteer with shelters and have two dogs of my own. So yes, I'm the worlds biggest animal fan. However, I'm not just someone who thinks they're cute and cuddly. I truly have a passion for animals that transcends just an owner/pet relationship. I have come to understand how important and unique animal's roles are in our lives.

1. They love us unconditionally

2. They will always be there to play...

3...Or cuddle


4. They have no judgement or idea of race, gender, sexual identity or socioeconomic background.

5. They feel just like us and are incredibly perceptive to our own feelings.


6. They are the only creatures in the world whose lives revolve 100 percent around us

7. They're ridiculously cute.

8. They are a shoulder to cry on.


9. They work on inherency's that are built in centuries of evolutionary DNA... nothing they do is based on anything but that


10. This means that their feelings and love are unending

11. They forgive, no matter how human and ugly we can be to them... they give back to us far more than we could ever give to them.

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.
