5 Reasons Why Everyone Is Falling In Love With Stephen Curry

1. Humbleness. His love and humbleness for the game of basketball is absolutely incredible. There is absolutely no doubt that this man loves what he does and never forgets to be positive through it all.

2. His beyond adorable daughter, Riley Curry. The precious 2-year-old is stealing everyone's hearts during NBA post press conference and before games when she warms up with her MVP father.

3. His perfect wife, Ayesha Curry. "We met when we were 14, 15 years old in Charlotte, North Carolina, and the last seven to eight years have been amazing. We've both grown into adults, we've moved cross country together, started a new life. And you're my backbone, you allowed me to do what I do, to focus on basketball and my career, and still have a family. The sacrifices you make are unbelievable. And I can't thank you enough for who you are as a person, how you challenge me, how you inspire me every single day." If that doesn't make you go "AWWW!", I'm not sure what does.

4. His faith. You can catch the MVP pounding his chest twice and pointing to the sky every time he connects a shot because "I have to thank my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for blessing me with the talents to play this game, with a family that supports me day in and day out. I'm His humble servant right now. I can't say it enough; how important my faith is to how I play the game and who I am. So, I'm just blessed and I'm thankful for where I am."

5. MVP Status. What a year it's been for the Golden State Warriors and it wouldn't have been possible if it wasn't for the talents of this young man. Just this season his stats read: 23.8 PPG, 4.3 RPG, 7.7 APG. Not only that, but as MVP he has now led Golden State to within one win of an NBA title. Keep doing work, Steph!

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.
