Big Foot

Can you imagine living your entire life classified as an "unknown species"?

Cryptozoology: the study of evidence tending to substantiate the existence of, or the search for, creatures whose reported existence is unproved, as the Abominable Snowman or the Loch Ness monster.

Skunk Ape, Moccasin Joe, Sasquatch, The Bush Man or my new personal favorite, The Hairy Stinka' Boo as they call him down South; all names pertaining to the most famous cryptid of them all...

Bigfoot.

The sasquatch is a large, hairy, creature that is distributed over the North American continent to varying degrees of concentration. Its massiveness and deviation from the typical human appearance and gait leave no doubt in the mind of observers that they have seen a creature different from man or known animals.

This hairy, bipedal humanoid always seems to be in the spotlight. Disputes regarding the very existence of this creature never seem to cease. The definition of Cryptozoology even takes a stab at the poor beasty, "reported existence is unknown", unknown? Harsh.

Can you imagine living your entire life classified as an "unknown species"? I sure can't. Have you ever stopped to think that maybe we are viewing The Hairy Stinka' Boo in the wrong way?

I mean, honestly, we have really stuck this glorious fellow in a box. A giant, hairy, unintelligent, beast, who is not quite human, but not quite an animal. He has no purpose other than to roam the North American continent alone. Sightings have been documented in numerous locations, but any contact is mere "speculation." Not to mention he must be pushing a couple hundred years old. He's a grandpa at this point, but he still roams. What ridiculous logic.

First of all, the idea of a Big Foot is just plain silly. It is more than obvious that there are multiple. Herds of "Sasquai" if you will. How on earth could there only be ONE? The herds are composed of males and females.. hello basic science, reproduction. The Sasquai migrate like birds, based on weather patterns, hence the multiple sightings in different geographic locations. As far as the lack of human contact goes, maybe they are smart enough to realize that humans kind of suck, and should be avoided.

As far as I'm concerned, these marvelous beings have it made. They get to travel the continent undercover. They are free to roam as they please, and get to avoid contact with the humans as they please. They also look like they are always wearing permanent fur jackets, stylish? Without a doubt.

So fellow humans, stop the hate. Stop encouraging ridiculous speculations pertaining to the existence of such glorious creatures. Spread awareness of the truth, and maybe, just maybe, you will get the privilege of seeing a herd of Sasquai migrating across the Great Plains.

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.
