8 Reasons Why I Strive To Be Like Lorelai Gilmore

" Gilmore Girls" is arguably one of the best shows I have ever watched on Netflix. Now, being the seasoned TV watcher that I am, this is seriously saying something. With the snarky comments, creative characters and priceless town drama, the show is a given top 5 pick for anyone who has ever fought with their mom, needed a cup of coffee, struggled in school, or just couldn't manage to hold down a relationship. With young and innocent Rory and her rambunctious yet reserved mother Lorelai, it is clear to me why so many mothers and daughters around the world strive to be like them. However, while their mother daughter bond is awesome, I personally find Lorelai to be probably the best character on the show. While always trying to be there for Rory is great, it doesn't even scratch the surface of what makes Lorelai the awesome person, mom and friend that she is. This being said; the following are the 8 reasons why I strive to be like Lorelai Gilmore.

1. Her life motto:

Coffee, coffee, coffee! You heard the woman!

2. How she deals with handling others.

She shows us to not settle for anything less than what you want in life.

3. Her commitment to always being herself.

Tongues out regarless of the time and place make for a happy life.

4. Her determinism to always speak her truth.

When you're not happy, it's nothing to feel guilty about. Speak your truth.

5. Her ability to see the beauty in the little things.

Sometimes the most beautiful things are the things you take for granted or as a pest.

6. She understands the power of good TV.

You're absolutely right, some shows are a lifestyle ...

7. How she shows us that we all struggle ...

Sometimes, some of us more than others...

8. Her ability to show us how to go about our rough patches

Thank you, Lorelai for showing us how to live our lives better.

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.
