25 Thoughts While Sitting In Traffic
Google.com

The average person spends about 42 hours a year sitting in traffic. Just think about how often you sit in traffic and the nasty comments you make under your breath or say to yourself in your head about all the idiots around you. Or think about the frustration you get when you are running late to an event or dinner and get stuck in traffic.

Traffic is inevitable (unless you live in secret remote location) and for the majority of us who live in the suburbs or even worse the city, traffic is something you encounter everyday of your life. Being stuck in a traffic jam usually produces some thoughts like this.

1. "I am never going to make it through this light."

2. "Why aren't we moving?"

3. "There is nothing on the radio."

4. "Yes, sure that tiny opening in front of my car is definitely big enough for your monstrosity of a SUV."

5. "Why won't anyone let me in?"

6. "Pay attention, you moron."

7. "There was traffic because of that?"

8. "Look at the pretty sky."

9. "The speed limit is 65, so why aren't we going at least 70, people?"

10. "Why?"

11. "I should have left earlier."

12. "Thank you. Maps for not warning me about this."

13. "You can turn off your blinker, now."

14. "Did the guy really just pick his nose?"

15. "Go, go, go!"

16. "No, do not slam on your brakes every time you move two feet."

17. "Get off your phone, idiot!"

18. "I've been in the car for 45 minutes -- how far have I gone?"

19. "I'm never driving again."

20. "Come on, people, let's move it!"

21. "Stop rubbernecking, and just drive!"

22. "Is homegirl really taking a selfie right now?"

23. "Ugh."

24. "I just want to be home!"

25. "I'm moving to the mountains."

So, there we have it -- just some of the thoughts we all have while sitting in your daily traffic jam.

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.
