Where would you be without her?

8 Reasons Why Your Mom Is The Best
Meaghan Creedon

I consider myself very lucky to have a mom who is more than just a mom. Nobody knows me better than she does and she understands me better than anyone I know. She is the person that I can always count on to have my back, to cheer me up when I'm down; and for that, I will forever be grateful for the special things we share together.

1. You always have a shopping buddy.

One of the best ways to pass time is through shopping. But who likes doing that alone? Whether or not we buy something, we almost always find ourselves shopping around stores, trying on shoes, and picking out new outfits.

2. You can tell her anything.

Your mom understands everything. There is no secret that you feel that you have to keep from her because you trust her with anything. Since she is one of the most forgiving people you know, you never have to worry about her holding a grudge against anything that you tell her. She will always listen to anything that you have to say without question.

3. There isn't a day that goes by without talking to her.

A good morning text. A text to check up on you throughout the day. And a phone call the second she is leaving work. You anticipate actually getting to talk to your mom and just fill each other in on the events of your day.

4. She gives the best advice.

Not sure how to get through your horrible day? You call her. Feeling a little under the weather and not sure what to do? You call her. Moms always have your best interest at heart and no matter what, they always say the right thing when you need it the most.

5. You share each other's clothes.

Not only do you always have a shopping buddy, but you basically have a second closet just across the hall. Your clothes become her clothes, and her clothes become yours. You love it when she buys herself a new sweater because you know she really bought it with your fashion sense in mind as well :)

6. She always knows how to make you laugh.

From the inside jokes that you share to her funny personality, there is never a time when you and your mom aren't laughing when you are together. You enjoy spending

7. You have the same favorite movies and shows.

Nothing beats coming home after a long couple of weeks at school and getting to sit down with your mom and just relax. You turn on an episode (or two or three of four) of "Friends," make a cup of tea, and enjoy each other's company...and your favorite show, of course!

8. You constantly miss her.

Even though you talk to her several times throughout the day, it's not the same as actually being with her. You miss her funny personality, her clothes, sipping tea together, and just her company. You know you are lucky to have her, which is why you cherish being with her so much.

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.
