13 Reasons Why NOT

In This Article:

After finishing season 2 of "13 Reasons Why," it inspired me to look at multiple points of view of what real-life people might be going through. There are many different opinions from viewers about this show, whether you like it or not, this show has a very powerful message behind it.

From the show, I got many powerful messages of what Hannah Baker went through. At the end of season 2, Hannah's mom had Clay read Hannah's list of 13 reasons why not, and here are mine.

1. Family

Gabriela Idland

I don't really have that many friends, a few close ones and that's it. My family is my everything and I would do anything for them. Not being able to see them everyday would be devastating. My family and I don't always see eye to eye, but I have learned that they will always be there.

2. Your pets

I love my dog to death, he is literally my best friend. Your pet would be so devastated if one day you just didn't come home. My dog makes me the happiest. He is truly my sunshine when skies are grey.

3. Music

Music always seems to make me feel better. Imagine never being able to listen to your favorite song or playlist again. I swear, Apple Music knows what kind of mood I am in and picks the best songs to make my day a little better.

4. School

Getting my degree is very important to me; it is stressful now, but it will be worth it in the end. Everything that has came along with going to college has kept me going. My sorority, friends, and Odyssey are a very important part that I will cherish forever.

5. Traveling

Gabriela Idland

There is so much world you haven't seen yet, and don't you want to explore it? I consider myself a world traveler and I still have so much of the world to see. Travel, I highly recommend it.

6. Your bestie

Gabriela Idland

Couldn't imagine life without my best friend. She definitely brings out my goofiness and fun side. Sometimes, all you need is a day with your bestie, and all your worries go away.

7. Finding true love

You may think that you don't have a true love out there. But true love doesn't have to be a person, it can be a thing. Find that person or something that you could never live without, and don't let go.

8. Laughing

A good laugh is a great stress reliever. Laugh often.

9. So many people you haven't met yet

There are so many people that you come in contact with and so many people that you would never think of meeting.

10. Smiling

Gabriela Idland

A true smile can make your day and potentially turn someone else's day around.

11. Your future

Everyone has future wishes, goals, and dreams. If you work hard enough, you can achieve those goals. No matter how big or small, your future can make living worth it.

12. Your bed

There are somedays I never want to get out of bed. Whether it's because I am exhausted from the night before or just woke up on the wrong side of the bed, my bed can always bring me comfort and happiness.

13. Sunshine

Gabriela Idland

Sunshine brings happiness to me and I always cherish the sunny days. Sunshine can never put you in a bad mood.

It does get better. Believe it or not, it will eventually get better. Maybe not today or tomorrow, but it will in the near future. Show the world how strong you are, even on your darkest days. Sometimes you have to go through the storm to get to the rainbow. The world loves you, and the sun would not shine without your face.

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.
