15 Ways You Make Me Happy
Megan Wheeland

Even though there are about a million ways you make me happy, I have a few favorites. I’m so glad you came into my life and I haven’t been this happy in a long time. Thank you, for showing me what a loving relationship is and why I really am blessed. You deserve nothing but pure happiness, and I can’t wait to see where this journey takes us. Here are some of the many, many ways you put a smile on my face every day.

  1. Every time something crazy comes out of my mouth (every two seconds) you always listen to what I have to say, and then continue to support me in everything I think or do without hesitation.
  2. You give me the freedom to be myself. I feel loved and secure and comfortable and I don’t have to worry about what you may think of my random outbursts or my need to make breakfast food every chance I get.
  3. You’re not afraid to make me laugh at your own expense. Singing the Dixie Chicks at the top of your lungs and dancing like a fool may not impress most, but it certainly makes my heart skip a beat. Life is joyous when my stomach hurts and my make-up is smudged from laughing so hard.
  4. When we’re together and I have to go somewhere, you let me take a ride on your feet all the while laughing like a little kid.
  5. You know exactly how I like my coffee and like to recite it…”medium hazelnut swirl with cream, iced or hot depending on your mood.” You also still buy it for me even though you don’t like the taste of it at all.
  6. The first time we prayed together, tears filled my eyes and I knew that God couldn’t have blessed me more. I’m so lucky to have someone who reminds me of God’s blessings and wants me to be the person He made me to be. Even when I struggle in my faith, you’re right there to help me get through the rough times.
  7. If I don’t want to dance at a party you literally pick me up in my chair and sit me on the dance floor. Thanks for always bringing me out of my comfort zone!
  8. The constant banter that never goes away was apparent within the first five minutes of us being together and we never, ever run out of things to say.
  9. You make me yummy French toast so I can eat way too much and then snuggle up next to you and complain about being full for the next few hours.
  10. Even though we’re hours apart, the distance doesn’t change anything. I still can count on you and trust you no matter what. I wake up with butterflies and fall asleep smiling.
  11. Every time you listen to that one song that means a lot to us, you record a video of it and send it to me on snapchat, just so you know I’m thinking of you. Just that can brighten any day and make me fall in love with you all over again.
  12. You give me your t-shirts to sleep in just so that I have even another reason to go to bed happy every single night and it feels like you’re a little bit closer than you actually are.
  13. Our favorite thing to do is eating mac and cheese on the floor…what started out as me being lazy became our favorite tradition. Thank you for going along with me and always making me comfortable and happy.
  14. I can stop in the middle of a conversation to start singing a random song and you look at me like I’m crazy, but the greatest thing you’ve ever seen. I want to capture that look so I never have a chance to forget it.
  15. You’re you, just you, and that’s all I could ever want.

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.
