15 Reasons Why Having A Fur Baby Will Change Your Life

Everyone knows that Dog is man's best friend, but the connection between owner and pet goes so much deeper than that.

1. You will feel needed at all times.

A dog literally depends on you for everything that they need. You are the one that feeds them, waters them, and lets them outside.

2. A dog's love is unconditional.

The saying, "No matter how many times you kick a dog, it'll always come back", is extremely true. Dogs are very forgiving creatures. ( Don't ever kick your dog, that's just rude.)

3. You will always have a cuddle buddy.

I don't know who is more excited to get into bed, my dogs or me.

4. A dog will never leave you.

They can't leave you unless you let them go, so you'll never be lonely.

5. You'll always have someone to share your food with.

This isn't always a good thing, but it's nice to always have the option to share.

6. They can guide you through life.

Some people require service dogs. Those people have to trust dogs with their life. For example, dogs can be trained to help blind people cross the road, they can be trained as far as what to do when their master is having a seizure or any other life threatening thing.

7. Dog hair goes with every outfit!

Whether you like it or not, you might as well get used to wearing it with everything, make it a fashion statement!

8. They know when you aren't feeling good.

My dog won't leave my side when I'm sick. They show you a little extra affection when you're down.

9. They will clean up any food that you drop.

It's like having a vacuum that you don't have to plug in!

10. They go to the bathroom outside.

(Most of the time.) No cleaning out a litter-box with doggies!

11. They keep you in shape by wanting to go on walks all the time.

You have a live-in motivator.

12. You will be greeted anxiously every time you walk through the door.

Who doesn't love a warm (and slobbery) welcome every time you come home?

13. They can keep you warm on cold nights.

Who needs a heated blanket when you have the real thing?

14. They are great alarm systems.

I get to know every time a squirrel comes within a mile of my house!

15. They are great judges of character.

Dogs know what someone is about way before you do.

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.
