Anheuser-Busch Contributing to Mid-West Flood Victims

Anheuser-Busch is more than a beer production powerhouse -- they are life savers.

Anheuser-Busch Contributing to Mid-West Flood Victims

Anheuser-Busch is a beer powerhouse that has gained household recognition primarily for the wide variety of beverages that they produce. No matter what there is always a beer for everyone. College kids: Busch Light, the dieting crowd: Michelob Ultra, the summertime crew: Landshark, Trendy 20 year olds: Shock Top, Americans: Budweiser. However, this past week Anheuser-Busch did something that no other company has stepped up to do. Because of this, Anheuser-Busch has worked to save the lives of hundreds, if not thousands and for that, they deserve recognition.

The news has been covering the devastating storms that have plagued the Mid-west in the past week. Floods have torn through towns, and dozens of lives have already been lost. In an effort to aid those affected by these tragedies, Anheuser-Busch has halted all beer production at their Georgia brewery this week to produce cans of water as opposed to beer. As of now, 50,000 cans of water are on their way to those in need in Texas and Oklahoma thanks to a partnership created with Anheuser-Busch and the Red Cross.

Many have been displaced, injured, or killed by these storms. Keep your thoughts and prayers with those being so tragically affected by these storms...Especially because they look to be extending into this upcoming week.

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.
