Don't have a date this Valentine's Day? No worries! You can spend the day treating yourself. Even if you do have a special someone this Valentine's Day, you can still make some special time for yourself. Just because Valentine's Day is advertised that you have to spend the day with a date, loving yourself and taking time out for yourself in equally as important. And what a great day to do so!

There are so many different ways to treat yourself this Valentine's Day. And you can also make special days for yourself any other days of the year!

1. Take a relaxing bath

Soak in a nice bath for an hour or so. It can be very relaxing, especially if you use a bath bomb, bath salts, or bubbles. To make it more relaxing, you can dim the lights, put some of your favorite music on, or read a book or magazine. Sounds like paradise, right?

2. Buy yourself a present

There is nothing wrong with buying yourself a present! Buy some nice clothes, a pocketbook, anything you want! You could even take yourself on a shopping spree, which can also be fun!

3. Indulge in sweets

Have some dessert! Have some cake, ice cream, chocolate, or make yourself something special to indulge in.

4. Cook a delicious dinner

You definitely don't have to cook a nice dinner for two. Cook for yourself! Make yourself something delicious that you love, and the best part is you don't have to share!

5. Sleep in/take a nap

If you don't have to be anywhere in the morning, sleep in some extra hours! Sleep is the best thing you could do for yourself. If you are busy during the day, squeeze in a nice nap to recharge!

6. Pamper yourself

Give yourself your own spa day! Get some face masks, lotions, even paint your nails. If you wanted to, you can book yourself a spa treatment. Everyone needs a day at the spa!

7. Get your friends involved

Make your Valentine's Day dates your friends! Get your friends together to indulge in food, relax, and gossip. Those are the best days in my opinion!

8. Go out to a park/nature preserve

If its a nice day to be outside, take some time out and go to your local park, or anywhere outside. This is the best place for some peace and quiet, and to just be alone with yourself. Being out in nature can be very soothing.

9. Meditate

If you really want some relaxing time, take a few minutes out to meditate. Close your eyes, take deep breaths, and have calming music in the background. Plus, if Valentine's Day is stressing you out, this is a great way to calm yourself down!

10. Eat chocolate!

You don't need someone to buy you a box of chocolates, buy one for yourself and enjoy!

11. Send Valentine's to family/friends

Show your family and friends a little love by getting them valentines. They will really appreciate it, and maybe you'll get something in return!

12. Pet a puppy

Puppy love is the best love of all! If you have a puppy or dog, make some cuddle time!

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.
