5 Reasons Why My Dog Is My Best Friend

Any dog owner will agree.

5 Reasons Why My Dog Is My Best Friend
Devyn Streisel

My dog Troni is my best friend and here's why.

1. He is always excited to see me.

Every time I walk in the door, his tail is wagging extremely fast to the point where his whole body is shaking back and forth. No person has ever been that excited to see me, not even my best friend Tori. Although we are super excited to see each other, my dog has the same amount of excitement every single day. Whether I'm gone for a week to go on vacation or I took a twenty minute trip to the store, his level of excitement is exactly the same.

2. He is always sad to see me leave.

Every morning as I start to leave the house, Troni stands in the doorway of the kitchen and barks at me as if he's begging me to stay home and hang out. Besides this he will sometimes try to bite my ankles to get me to stay. Come one, how cute is that? No one has ever tried to physically get me to stay somewhere besides my dog.

3. He is always ready to cuddle.

If he could, he would lay in bed with me all day and cuddle. Unfortunately, I have to go to school and can't cuddle all day, but he still tries. Any time he sleeps in my bed he wakes up with me in the morning and stares at me as I'm walking around getting ready. Yes Troni, I do have to go to school today, just like any other day.

4. He always puts a smile on my face.

No matter what mood I'm in, I can always count on Troni to make me smile. If I'm sick, he lays in bed with me and stays by my side. If I'm sad or angry, he gets me to pet him and when I stop he looks at me and will put his paw on me until I continue, how could I stay mad?

5. He always wants to play.

Nothing is better than seeing Troni playing with his toys, even if it means coming home to toys on the floor because the one he wanted was on the bottom. He's really fun to play with because he loves toys but, he will also play without the toys. He is a ball of fun and there is never a dull moment.

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.
