6 Things To Thank Your Mother For This Mother's Day

This is your reminder that Mother's Day is May 8! We're extremely grateful for all our mothers year round, but once a year we get to really appreciate everything that they do. Here are six things to remember to thank your mother for!

1. She gave you life

The second we are born and we become who we are, she becomes a mother. We go from being carried in them for nine months, carried in their arms for three years and then carried forever by their endless love.

2. She'll always care for you

No matter how rundown we get, our mom's are always by our side battling with us. If it's recovering from surgery or catching the flu, she's there. There's something magical about moms and the way they make us feel better faster than we ever could on our own.

3. She's constantly there for you

In case, of emergency, call mom. In case, of sadness, call mom. In case, of needing a doctors appointment, call mom. She's only a call away and will never hesitate to help you with whatever dilemma you've gotten yourself into this time.

4. She's your number one fan

Every sporting event or ceremony you have, she'll be there. She knows way more about sports and research projects than she ever thought she would, thanks to you. There's no distance she wouldn't travel to show she cares.

5. She's an incredible friend

Since she is just a phone call away, she knows all the important details of your life. She knows just what to say when you're feeling down and need a good life talk. Also, she is always down to gossip and keeps you up to date with all the latest news.

6. She's always going to love you

We might trip and stumble down this path we call life but at the end of the day, we can always rely on the love we receive from our mothers.

So Happy Mother's Day to all the incredible mothers around the world and especially to the mothers that are no longer with us, your legacy is carried on by your wonderful children.

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.
