Cats are basically the most awesome animal ever to live on the earth. With their long tails and wide eyes, cats are nothing far from amazing. Let's talk about some more reasons why cats are actually so great.


1. They are very...interesting.

Let's face it, we have all seen our cats do something pretty weird. Personally, my cat likes to join me while I take showers.

2. They are also super fluffy.

Who doesn't love a soft, puffy companion? NOBODY. Duh.

3. They are smart.

Seriously, they can even use phones. Um, CRAZY.

4. They motivate you to workout.

"You've got this! Just a few more minutes! Keep going!" - Your Cat

5. But when they know it's time to rest, they will take a nap with you.

Cats love nap time, a little cuddle with their human can make their day. Next time you need a nap, invite your feline friend to nap with you.

6. They are great at communicating what they want.

Cat language is easy; purr means happy, hiss means mad, tap means pet, meow means food. Simple.

7. They won't tell your secrets.

Did you do something and you're afraid to tell anyone? Cool, tell your cat. Who are they going to tell? No one.

8. They are great with computers.

My cat is actually helping me type this right now.

9. Cats are super festive when it comes to holidays.

Who better to spend time with on holidays than your cat?

10. They are probably more fashionable than you will ever be.

You: "I love your hat! Where did you get it?"

Your Cat: "CatMart"

11. They are excellent musicians.

For the millionth time, its Kitty Purry; not Katy Perry.

12. They are great friends.

There is no better friend than a cat. Whatever you want to do, they are up for the challenge. Give your cat some credit, they are pretty awesome.

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.
