Whether you're feeling down low or high in the sky, there's a song to boogie to no matter what mood you're in


1. Feeling Hopeless After A Break-up: 'I Will Survive' by Gloria Gaynor

Going through a nasty breakup? Sometimes you're left in a state of mind that you'll never be okay again, or that you'll never be the same. It can be so difficult to find peace within yourself once it's been disturbed. Ms. Gaynor is here to remind you though that you WILL survive, and no person will ever be able to just walk back in your life after hurting you the way they did. Even if at first you're afraid and petrified.

2. You're In Love and Want To Dance - 'September' by Earth, Wind & Fire

Maybe you met in September, maybe you didn't. But you're floating within the clouds and all you want to do is dance around your room because of how happy you are. Name a better song for that. I'll wait.

3. When You're Working Day And Night And Deserve A Lot More Respect - 'She Works Hard For the Money' by Donna Summer

"She works hard for the money so you better treat her right." This song is a timeless anthem for hardworking women everywhere who ever feel or felt overshadowed by their male counterparts. Inequality was a much bigger problem in the 1970s, but unfortunately a message like this is still relevant today.

4. For Your Inner Flower Child: 'Imagine' - John Lennon

This song is an ode to the dreams of an ideal world where people put aside their differences and the things that set them apart to live in the moment and support one another. This sentiment still resonates with people today as social justice issues are being further emphasized than they've been since the 1970s.

5. When You're Living Your Best Single Life: 'It's Raining Men' - The Weather Girls

As stated by this iconic song, mother nature is a single woman too.

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.
