Why California Is The Best Place In the World

California is without a doubt one of the most interesting and diverse places to live. The state of California has much more to offer than other states in the US. California has numerous large cities, such as Los Angeles, san Francisco and more. The state is filled with experiences, through traveling the mountains or simply roaming the cities. California teaches people a different sense of lifestyle, whether that means living in the state or just visiting. With all the different atmospheres and diverse regions inside and out of California, that state has become known as one of the most amazing places to live in the world.

Even though California is not Greece or the Caribbean islands, the state has award winning beaches and famous mountains. Because California is located on the western side of the US, geographically, the state has both hot and cold atmospheres. People can develop skills in water sports and snow sports almost parallel to each other. I’ve had friends travel after snowboarding in Tahoe in the early morning to driving four hours and surfing in the late afternoon near the coast. While this seems like a lot of work to me, the point is that its possible to do. California is so well equipped, that someone can bike up and down the coast and never feel lost. California is all around a place for people with all interests, those who love nature, and those who love big city life and more.

California is also a place of diversity within the general population. The state is diverse in color, and diverse in lifestyles as well. California, mostly due to its history, is a place of redemption. Many people have travelled and immigrated to California for numerous reasons, one of them being that the state has so much to offer and so welcoming. Immigrants from all around have traveled to California to make a better life for themselves and have inherently created an amazing diverse public throughout the state. Most California schools, in mostly the larger cities, carry and schools hundreds of children from all walks of life. People of different backgrounds all come together to learn and grow under the same models. This is one of the most amazing things about California, the diversity between the academics. While the state has much more room to grow publicly, so far California has created a place of growth for all people and all ages.

On top of being a place of diversity, the state has also been the birthplace of popular culture and helped develop the film industry. Today, California is known less for its diversity among regions and people, and more about its creation of celebrities and rich culture. This is another reason people admire and inspire to be in California. The opportunities of becoming part of that industry and atmosphere is a very appealing quality. California is an all around amazing and beautiful place to visit and live in. People aspire to come to California for many of the reasons written here. The diversity throughout the state in all aspects, adds to California’s influence on the rest of the world as well.

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.
