Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays- all it involves is eating incredible food and spending time with family. Here is my personal ranking of the best Thanksgiving foods, however, I should preface that these are all the dishes that I eat at my own house, so sorry if you can't relate (you might want to consider rethinking your current menu, though).

For those of you who like this... just, no. Something of this consistency belongs in a pie, not on top of your mashed potatoes.

I know, I know, unpopular opinion: I've just never enjoyed it. However, my mom must make a pretty good dish of it, considering all of my family members always pile their plates high with it.

Sweet Potato Casserole

Taste of the South

Ok, I actually like this dish, especially with mini marshmallows on top of it. The only reason it's not higher up on my rankings is because the ones ahead of it are just THAT good.

Pumpkin Pie

Not sure why it gets such a bad rep, but I could eat pumpkin pie all year long, if the seasonal market permitted. It is the epitome of cheer, fall, and Thanksgiving in every single heavenly, spiced bite (assisted by some whipped cream, of course).

Turkey is so good, especially when you drizzle some warm gravy all over it. My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

Mashed Potatoes

My mom makes the best mashed potatoes in the world, and it truly would not be Thanksgiving without them... so yeah, that's all I need to say to justify myself.

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.
