Click For A Change
Change.org

Can you change the world with the click of a mouse? Yes, yes you can.

Change.org is the name. It is a website, a powerful tool used by people from every single corner of the world to promote or support just about any cause. How the process works is incredibly simple. However, the impact that it has goes far beyond any simplicity.

This website is a way to help a change take place, to contribute to the world, which sometimes is a hard thing to do. How you stand up to what is fair is just by clicking "sign" and sharing. How much easier can it get? One signature at a time and big things can happen, and yours can be the decisive one.

There are about too-many-to-count petitions going on as you are reading this. The topics range from Animal Rights to Human Trafficking to Criminal justice, etc. There is a topic that will surely attract your attention and make you want to contribute to be part of that cause and make a change.

That is what it is all about: Change. Making your voice count and fight for what is right. When the system fails the people or when the voiceless animals are getting abused, when discrimination is taking place, it is up to you to make justice prevail. If nobody does, then who will?

As the website opens, the trending petitions will show, as well as the possibility to start a petition. There are also some victory cases, such as one of two unjustly imprisoned US citizens arrested in Kuwait, released after the petition reached 172,447 supporters. Here, it is to see that change can happen, only it has to be made.

Take a look at the petition, click on the "read more" link and inform yourself about what is happening in the petition. Sign it if you feel that there is a change that needs to happen. No matter how many signatures there are, your's counts more than you can even imagine. Do not stop there. You have the option of sharing it with your friends and acquaintances through social media websites such as Facebook and Twitter. Then share!

Help make your community, country, and the world a better and fair place to live. Many things need fixing around us, things that are not right and have to have a modification. Change.org is indeed the best place to start.

Join the 147,758,959 people that are already making their voices count. You do not need to go anywhere or to take anything out of your wallet. All that is required is a heart and a sense of righteousness, and the simple click of a mouse. After all, Change.org helps no one else but ourselves because, yes, we are part of the same world.

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.
