6 Reasons Your Cat Is So Important
Taylor Parsons

1. They Eat Just As Often As You Do

As you go downstairs to grab your favorite snack ,you'll hear a loud "crunch, crunch" noise and as you look over you'll notice your small 7-pound cat, devouring a bowl bigger than her head of cat food. She's obviously your cat if all she does is eat! You have to be proud of her, she can eat her body weight in food that's your kind of cat!

2. They Get Moody Too

Cats, much like us, go from the "love me! pay attention to me!" stage to the "I'll scratch you if you touch my head again" really fast. They only can handle so much "aren't you a pretty kitty!" compliments and neck scratches before they just decide they're done with you. Most likely they'll hiss at you as you try to apologize for being annoying, but they don't want any part of that so they'll just run away from you and hide under your Christmas tree.

3. Their Naps Are All Day Events Too

On a cold, snowy, December day all you can think about is crawling into bed and taking a nice long nap in your onesie pajamas. Your cat has the same exact idea! As you hear a little paw hitting your door then the soft "meow!" you know its nap time! You're "nap" will most likely take up your whole day, but that okay your cat won't judge you for staying in bed all day!

4. They Like To Talk A Lot

Most people think cats don't make much noise, but if you're a real cat parent you know that they chatter just as much as you do! They want to be heard, even though you have no idea what they're saying you just roll with it!

5. They're Great Listeners

When you're just to the point in the day when you get back from a long day at work and all you want to do is vent to someone, the best person to go to is your cat! You'll tell them about how you can't handle dealing with customers anymore and she'll just stare at you with a blank face and occasional blink. Your cat may not be responding, but hey they stuck around and listened!

6. They're Always There For You When You're Sad

Some days you'll just come home in tears and just want to be alone. But as you lay down on your bed and get teary eyed they'll calmly crawl up on your stomach and lay down to remind you that everything is going to be alright!

You cat will love you on your good and bad days and will make you smile everyday! They're basically the whole reason why you come home from school!

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.
