In Northeastern Ohio we are very WELL AWARE that everything is EARNED and NOT GIVEN. When we won The NBA Championship on June 19th, 2016 the unbelievable happened. We beat The Golden State Warriors that not only had a 73-9 regular season but The Cleveland Cavaliers were also down 1-3 in the NBA Finals. During that time, The Cleveland Indians were on a game winning streak and they ended up winning 14 games in a row!!! Now- fast forward 4 months and here we are now. Just a couple days away until the Championship Ring Ceremony for The Cleveland Cavaliers AND Game ONE of THE WORLD SERIES against the Chicago Cubs. For some, people can't believe this is really happening- they actually don't even believe that this is not a dream. We haven't won a World Series since the 1940's and I've never lived in a lifetime where we've won a National Championship... So this is a HUGE deal!!!! As a Northeastern Ohio native, I can say that I've been raised to look forward to this day for all of my life and here are just some of the feelings I'm experiencing approaching the next couple of days!

1. We're actually dreaming

Clevelander's have been watching Major League since it came out 25 years ago and fans actually cry during that movie because all we have ever wanted was our team to WIN A WORLD SERIES. After the 1995 and 1997 Cleveland Indians broke our hearts, it's not that we gave up hope- it's just that we couldn't believe that the World Series slipped away right before our eyes. Now, in a couple of days, we are re-living a moment that gave us back our hope and witnessing greatness between two teams that haven't won IN A VERY LONG TIME.


2. We don't want this year to end

I'm not a fan of change and I don't want to live in a world where The Cleveland Cavaliers have to start over and start a new season where they have to prove *yet once again* that they are the best. I know in my heart that they are- I just don't want anyone to stop it. And as for The Cleveland Indians, I have enjoyed watching this team so much that I don't want anyone to leave. They have meshed so well and they are the perfect group!


3. Nervous as hell


As a Clevelander, you would be lying if you said you weren't nervous for this World Series Run starting on Tuesday, October 25th, 2016. But as a Clevelander, you'll be behind the Indians no matter what the turnout is.

4. Happiness


We are happy to be alive to see this awesome opportunity. I'm not really sure when something so WONDERFUL and AMAZING will happen again (let alone on the same night), but I know I'm going to cherish it while I can.


I hope to see so many faces in the city of Cleveland on 10/25/2016. It'll be a special day to be apart of!

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.
