What Living In the Country is like

In This Article:

When I first moved out to West Friendship Maryland, there was not much out here to do. It was mainly trees and grass, and a few people spread out. After close to 20 years of living here, I have enjoyed it and also hated it. Here are a few reasons why.

1. No Nosy Neighbors

When it comes to neighbors, living out in the country is good if you don`t like people and want to be away from others. I can go both ways, I like some people but I would rather not have neighbors close to me.

2. Landscape

The landscape is very nice out in the country, but it does have lots of work to do daily. From mowing grass, to maintain the gardens, we have our hands full. Still, it is nice and pretty to look at, as you look out the window. You also can get grade photography practice out here, as there is so much of nature and rolling hills.

3. Peace and Calmness

Living out in the country part of Maryland, is nice because of the peace and quiet out here. You are away from the big city noise and lights. So in the end, living out in the country has it good times and bad but overall it has been a good experience and taught me life lessons.

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.
