17 Resolutions For 2017
Huffington Post

We can all unanimously agree that 2016 wasn't the best year for any of us. In order to have a better year, it is vital that we make resolutions, and we must stick with them. I have noticed that there are those on social media that laugh at others who want to make resolutions for the new year, because they think that you should make a resolution any time of the year. But the end of a year can mark closure for someone who might not have had the best year that they could have. The new year has the potential to be the year to better yourself as a person, but it can be hard to even come up with just one resolution. I have written a list of not one, but 17 simple resolutions to make you the best you you can be in 2017. With these resolutions, I hope you find that these simple acts make you live a happier and healthier life.

1. Be more confident.

2. Say "yes" more.

3. Smile more.

4. Treat your body with respect, eat healthy and exercise.

5. Write every day.

6. Reach out to an old friend.

7. Take on a new hobby.

8. Travel when you have the opportunity.

9. Be more grateful of who and what you have in your life.

10. Spend more time in nature.

11. Do something out of your comfort zone.

12. Donate clothes to those in need.

13. Get organized.

14. For every negative you have to say, say two positives.

15. Find a new band or artist to listen to and see them in concert.

16. Drink more water.

17. Give yourself "me time" every day.

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.
