11 Times Puppies Gave You A Reason To Smile

I don't know what we did to deserve puppies, but thank God.

11 Times Puppies Gave You A Reason To Smile

Over the course of the last couple of days, the news has been exceptionally morbid. With the murder of Christina Grimmie, the mass shooting at Pulse nightclub and the boy killed by an alligator on Disney property, there has been a huge cloud of darkness. In times like these, it is important to remember that there is light in the world. One of the brightest things to bring joy to others is puppies. Hopefully these puppies can remind us all that there are good things in life.

1. They run around in costumes.

Life can't be so bad when there are wiener dogs running in a field while wearing hot dogs costumes. They are so free and happy.

2. They have floppy ears.

Check out this little guy living out his dream of being in "Aladdin." I'd love for him to show me the world.

3. They're small enough to fit in bowls.

I'll never understand how so much cute can be in such a dense ball of fluff. But I don't think humans were ever meant to understand.

4. They have a hard time eating.

This puppy is my spirit animal. So much enthusiasm trying to get all the food from the bowl.

5. They bark at anything and everything.

It's never too early to celebrate Halloween, especially when it's so adorable. You go little buddy, tell that pumpkin who's in charge here.

6. They're cute when confused.

I'm not too sure what this bunch was turning their heads for, but I'm sure it was very confusing.

7. They can do cool tricks.

Great catch! Check out that form and the determination. I haven't seen perfection like that since Puppy Bowl '92.

8. They just want to be with you.

This puppy just wants to be with their owner on top of the half pipe. Poor pup doesn't know he needs a running start, but he'll figure it out.

9. They get caught having too many treats.

Oh, no, someone was caught having too many treats when they weren't supposed to. But I think we can let it slide this time.

10. They sometimes act human.

Nothing is better than when puppies act like humans. Hopefully you like the Animal Planet.

11. They do the Running Man.

"This is my time to shine." Someone is getting in on the Running Man Challenge while it's still popular.

In the wake of a rough week of tragedies, it is important to find things that make you happy. I know these GIFs of puppies won't take away the pain and suffering of those who were affected by the events from the past week, but hopefully, it gives people a reason to smile.

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.
