5 Reasons Why Dogs Are Humans' Best Friends

I have always been more of a dog person opposed to cats. I love dogs from how cuddly they are to how active they love to be. Sometimes I truly do wonder what humans did so right to deserve dogs. If you don't have a dog or never had a dog you're probably not aware of all the greatness that is a dog or a puppy, but don't worry, because you'll probably be convinced to get one after you read these 5 reasons dogs are humans best friends.

1. They're always there to comfort you

Dogs are honestly one of the best things to cuddle with when you're feeling down about something. It's even cuter when they try to give you dog kisses because they know you're feeling sad. The best thing is you don't even have to tell dogs you're feeling sad because they can basically sense it. Regardless if the dog is huge or just a small little puppy they are perfect for laying with.

2. They are loyal


Loyal friends are hard to find, but not when it comes to dogs. They tend to be very loyal animals. They protect their owners and always stand by their side. Even when you're busy and aren't home to play with them all day they'llalways be waiting for you when you get home.

3. Dogs aren't judgmental


It's pretty obvious that dogs love you no matter what. You could be a hot mess, but to your dog,you're probably as perfect as it gets. They also don't judge you when you stay in your bed past noon to sleepbecause honestly they'll be curled up right next to you.

4. They're great company


Don't have anyone to work out with? A dog is a perfect partner to go on a hike or run with.Usually, it's bigger dogs that like to do all the running, but regardless, most dogs and puppies are down to do just about anything with their owners from binge-watching Netflix to swimming, maybe even some yoga.

5. They always put a smile on your face


Regardless if they tear up your shoes or do something they're not supposed to, dogs are hard not to love. One minute you'll be scolding your dog and the next you'll be cuddling with them. Dogs are incredible creatures and they truly are humans' best friends.

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.
