Aesthetics: Autumn Edition

There is so much more to the season than pumpkin spice.

When autumn comes around, it's as if there's some kind of brilliant magic that sets in. Once it does, a door opens to a whole world of things to be appreciated that never gets old.

Not just colors—THE colors.

The deep crimson red, the burnt orange, the golden yellow...and the vibrant brilliance of the leaves when they catch the sunlight in the early morning and the fading evening.

The cooling temperature.

There's something so refreshing about breathing in that distinctly crisp air and the feeling of the faint wind grazing your skin.

When the sun becomes subtle.

I'm talking about that really breathtaking thing when it's cool outside with the sun gleaming in all of its glory, minus the intense, scorching heat.

Rainy Vibes.

Okay, but really—when you're not up for getting tons of cold kisses from the rain, the indoor ambience is so delightful when you're sitting by a window, listening to the muffled pattering of the raindrops, perhaps with a warm mug and a good book.

Everything else is warm and sweet.

The combination of sights and smells so unique to the season are more than enough to just make you all warm and fuzzy on the inside. Flannels, mittens, and scarves...sweet spices of cinnamon, clove, and nutmeg...tangy apple cider and decadent hot chocolate...freshly baked goods...hugs from loved ones...etc.

Just go on and try to tell me that there isn't anything beautiful about autumn. I can bet you three apples and a corn kernel that you will not win.

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.
