Some things in life are a little funky...

Some things in life are just kind of...weird. Maybe it's just me, or maybe you feel the same way. Or maybe you're one of those wild Facebook users that will read through this entire article, taking it way too seriously, and commenting on why each point I make is totally wrong. With that being said, here are 7 things that don't really make sense to me.

1) The people on Facebook that I mentioned above.

I get, you have opinions. We all do! I have such a hard time understanding this very specific Facebook user because of the amount of time their "job" must take. I've seen grown men and women post comments (typically on political posts) that are longer than some of the essays I've written for class. I get it, the world (or your 37 Facebook friends) needs to know how you feel! But when these posts turn offensive, which they so often do, maybe it's just time to log off?

2) People who get angry over LGBTQ marriages.

How does someone else's marriage affect you at all? I don't get it! No one is asking a straight person to get married to someone of the same sex. I'm sure if you're anti-gay marriage you aren't being invited to any of the weddings, so how does it affect you? Let people love whoever they want to love, I promise you have bigger fish to fry!

3) School Shootings

Not a lot to say here. If you think murdering innocent people makes sense then I'd encourage you to stop reading and get help.

4) People at the gym who come in large groups and each take turns doing reps on one machine so no one else can have a turn.

Just a personal gripe with gym culture.

5) Men who cat call women.

What is the end game here? You're going to whistle at a woman on the street and she's going to rip her clothes off? Can't comprehend it.

6) People who make fun of annoying teens when they were an annoying teen like a year ago.

I promise if I comb through your tweets I will find something just as cringe inducing as the ninth grader letting the world know that he thinks Lil Pump is the greatest musician of all time.

7) Racism/Sexism/Homophobia/ any other pointless hatred.

Just leave people alone!! Stop being an asshole and let people live their lives in peace. If you are any of the terms listed above I strongly suggest you get educated and be quiet.

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.
