7 Instagram Accounts That Will Make Your Life Complete
Ashlynn Burk

If you are like me, you vicariously live through other’s Instagrams. Places you haven’t traveled; words you can’t eloquently express; people you wish you were. If your Instagram feed looks a little dry, here are some of my personal favorites.

1. @ashlynnmburk

@ashlynnmburk is my favorite Instagram account of all time. Filled to the brim with aesthetically pleasing photographs and occasionally self-deprecating captions. Her account is poetry in motion. Honestly, I check this Instagram even when I know she hasn’t uploaded anything new. When I do, I fall in love with her content all over again -- I’m that obsessed.

2. @lora.mathis

@lora.mathis -- How to describe them? Preaching radical softness as a weapon, Lora Mathis confronts issues like identity and depression. Their poetry inspires, empowers and tears you apart -- just to put you back together again. Lora is also a feminist, which is always a plus.

3. @alu.naes

I have recently discovered Karina Padilla on her account @alu.naes, and I immediately fell in love. Her content is down to earth; she embraces body-positivity; her artistic style moves me in a way I can not explain. Her art is not conventionally beautiful, but instead captivating in a way that keeps your attention and refuses to relinquish it. Based in New York City, she recently traveled to Mexico to visit family and embrace more of her heritage. I wish I had been able to go with her.

4. @cleolazuli

@cleolazuli -- basically, I want to be her when I grow up (as if I'm not older than her). She is who I wish I was when I was 17. Follow her if you want to feel young and free again. Or if you want make-up inspiration and suggestions.

5. @beverlylove

If you are not familiar with @beverlylove, then you should be. An illustration student, Bev Johnson consistently uploads samples of her art; you are impressed all over again with each piece. The loose and whimsical style simply whisks you away. When uninspired and stuck, I often study her Instagram feed.

6. @janciie

@janciie ... I don't know who she is, and you most likely don't either. But I love the little snippets of her life with each picture she uploads. After examining her feed, I always feel a bit more at peace.

7. @fortheloveofwanderlust

For all of the travelers and adventurers and people who wish to journey but are stuck in their apartment, follow Paige Wunder @fortheloveofwanderlust. Her photography steals your breath away. She makes me want to pack my cheap duffel bag and buy an airplane ticket to anywhere that isn't here.

Why are the previously listed accounts, these random people, my Instagram favorites? Overall, their content takes you away. They inspire your wanderlust. They allow you little sneak peeks into their perspective of the world and its wonders.

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.
