30 Reasons Why You Can't Live Without Your Mom

Mothers. They literally brought about our existence. They're everything you hope and aspire to be when you grow up. Let's be honest, you'd be completely lost without her. As you get older- you realize there are just some things you couldn't do without her.

  1. Who else will you argue with you on the phone and end the conversation with "I love you, too."
  2. You'll never be able to hang a leveled picture or shelf by yourself.
  3. They know all the home remedies to fix your pain/illness.
  4. She always knows what advice to give you. Even when you're in a situation she doesn't particularly like.
  5. She gave you birth. Say, "Thank You." You literally couldn't live without her.
  6. She'll always make sure you don't go hungry.
  7. And she always knows your favorite foods.
  8. They'll answer your phone call at any time of the day, for any amount of time.
  9. She knows exactly what to do to cheer you up.
  10. She'll tell you when you should change your clothes... Or put on some make up.
  11. She puts up with you and your friends vulgar gossiping, even though she cringes at the information.
  12. She gives the best hugs. Nothing's better than a mom-hug.
  13. They tell you the things you NEED to hear, though you might not want to hear them.
  14. You can always count on a text asking you to update her about Pop Culture. Ex) What's a Trap House? What is bae? Who is Bobby Shmurda?
  15. She'll always pick you up when you need a ride.
  16. You can count on a cute note ending with "XOXO, MOM" in your lunch bag.
  17. She's your #1 Fan!
  18. You're always good for at least one Instagram like.
  19. She gives the BEST care packages.
  20. When you move away, you can inherit her sweatshirts so it's like you're still cuddling at night.
  21. Your friends are like your sisters/brothers. Your friends are like her daughters/sons.
  22. She's always down for a shopping trip. And is always down not to tell your father.
  23. Big Macs at 2am... Let's go.
  24. Let's be honest- some days, she's the only person you call or text.
  25. "You look just like your mother."
  26. She's always excited for you, no matter how big or small the news is.
  27. She remembers all the childhood memories you wish you could remember.
  28. She'll tell the embarrassing stories and show the embarrassing pictures to your crush. (You secretly love it.)
  29. When you meet people from her work, they'll already know everything about you from the stories she tells and the shrine of pictures on her desk.
  30. No matter what, she loves you unconditionally.


Love ya, girl!

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.

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.
