7 Reasons Why My Mom Is My No. 1 Role Model
Sydney Day

Having a mother is probably the greatest gift anybody could ever have. She is my rock, and I have no idea what I would ever do without her. She is the reason I am here today, and I wanted to give her some credit for everything she does on top of being an awesome mom. You are loved by many and deserve to be told this more often. I love you, mom!

1. She is the most selfless person I know.

She only does things for other people, and I feel like she would drop everything to do something for someone else that is one of the biggest things I wish I could do. I love the amount of empathy she has and how she would put anybody before herself. I envy that about her every day and constantly strive to be more like her.

2. She is beautiful inside and out (and doesn’t realize it).

She loves getting dressed up and looking pretty. She’s always asking for my opinion on what she should wear and if it looks good. But she also has a heart of gold, which is what you really see on the outside. She, of course, is a beautiful woman, but her kind-heartedness is what always shines through.

3. She knows how to pick me up when I’m down.

She always knows exactly what to say and when to say it when I get in one of my nasty moods, am sad or stressed. She always tries to help and knows what to do, to do so. She’s like my personal 24/7 therapist, and I don't know what I would do without her.

4. She’s so understanding (most of the time).

I can tell her anything. Sometimes she may not be the happiest but that doesn’t mean she will love me any less. It is the best feeling in the world to know you can tell someone something with zero judgment and all honesty.

5. She stands up for what she believes in.

You better not cross my momma; she will mess you up. If she doesn’t get something that she knows she can, she will do anything in her power to get it. Don’t mess with me or my siblings or she will come after you. You think I’m kidding?

6. She’s such a nugget.

She’s just the cutest thing ever; she always tries to go out of her way to put a smile on someone's face. She that “cool’ and “cute” mom that I am so proud of, and I wouldn’t want anybody else.

7. And lastly, she’s my best friend.

Whether it’s a good or bad day, we always know how to joke with each other, we always text and call and go out on girls dates whenever we can. I can literally tell this woman anything. She is my best friend, and I have absolutely no idea what I would do without her.

Thank you for everything you do for me and everyone you know and love, Mom! You are so appreciated and loved!

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.
