For the everyday things that go unnoticed. For the everyday things that are underappreciated. For the everyday things that keep our lives going. For the everyday things that support us non-stop, here's to you.

Thank you, Snapchat, for always providing that perfect lighting/blemish free filter that makes me look and feel flawless. Every time I take that perfect snap, I cannot help but feel like Kylie Jenner.


Thank you, floor length mirrors, for giving me the the visual validation I need every morning, to tell me how good I look every morning before I head into work. #Flawless

Thank you, barista at Starbucks, for greeting me with a smile every morning and asking me "What can I get you?" knowing that I need caffeine based on the lack of awareness I bring to the register.

Thank you, Kim Kardashian, for reminding me that being famous isn't all that it's cracked up to be, and that I'm perfectly content in my low-key unnoticed life from the limelight.


Thank you, Mannequin Challenge, for being the next best YouTube sensation and robbing me of my time because my obsession grows with being on the lookout for the next best video.


Thank you, road message signs, for being so creative in coming up with new ways to let me know that you care that I arrive alive and that being home for the holidays is a necessity.


Thank you, high heeled boots, for providing me that extra inch or two for my short legs so that when I sit down I no longer loose circulation in being unable to touch the floor.

Thank you, 24 Hour restaurants, for fueling my late night hunger. You really are the bees knees.

Thank you, debit cards, for helping but ruining me all in one; with one swipe, my deepest desires can come true, but you drain my bank in a flash leaving me with a penny to survive on for a good three days before payday.

Thank you, Jimmy Fallon, for your creativity in making this nation laugh everyday and for giving me this idea so I can reach the deadline in completing the article count each week.

Last but not least, thank you, 2016, for a great year. #ThanksObama.

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.
