8 Things Clumsy People Can Relate To

I didn't fall. The floor just needed a hug.

Being clumsy doesn't come easy. The walls jump out at us, the floor likes to trip us, the tables get in the way, the list goes on. If you are clumsy like me, you will likely be able to relate to everything listed below.

1. Walking into walls every day

....and probably giving ourselves a bruise in the process.

2. Tripping over nothing

This happens to me every day. I can literally trip when there's nothing in the way of where I'm walking. Hey, it takes talent to trip over the air.

3. Dropping things on a regular basis

We klutzes should be used to this by now. Let's just hope we don't drop our mom's favorite vase. *knocks on wood*

4. Knocking over several objects at once

Oops. Sorry. Oh crap, I didn't see that there.

5. Bumping into other people

Sorry random person. Please don't kill me.

6. Falling down the stairs on numerous occasions

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! "What's that noise? Oh never mind. The klutz is falling down the stairs....again."

7. Wearing any kind of footwear that isn't flat is a big no-no

I love to look taller by trying on some high heels, but I don't ant to risk breaking my ankle just from walking in a pair of shoes.

8. Being covered in several scrapes, scratches, bumps, and bruises

Sometimes it's hard to keep track of all of them.

Being clumsy is a struggle, but if you are a klutz don't feel bad because you are not alone. Not to mention, it's part of what makes you unique. So get out there and embrace your clumsiness. Trip over the air with pride!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
