Indy Blue is a 20-year-old who has already been around the world to more places than most will go in a lifetime. It has been two years now since I saw one of Indy's videos pop up on my twitter feed and I instantly became invested in this girl who was traveling the world going everywhere I have dreamt of going and making super cool videos about it.

She is a Videographer who has grown vastly popular ever since she posted her 2016 video about her travels over the span of a year and it went viral. Indy's videos spark the adventurous part that lives within most people. The part that many have hidden beneath the layers of fear, anxiety, and workaholic attitudes they have piled on over the years in a world where the main focus has turned to how to make the most money rather than doing what you love.

Indy lives her life with the motivation of creating the life she wants to live. She is not only a videographer she is a blogger as well. She inspires her readers with motivational, supportive, and inspiring words. Indy states the reason she does all of this is, "I want to inspire people, help people. Through documenting my own life, I want to make someone’s day a little better. And that is the sole purpose of this blog."

She lives every day as if it is her last, and this is something I wish more would do, including myself. We only have so much time on this earth, so why waste any of it. None of us are promised tomorrow which is why we need to stop doing things we aren't truly passionate about. As it is the beginning of a new year, let's all strive to take Indy's advice, let's create the life we want to live. Be bold, take chances, be fearless, we have one short life to live, live it to the absolute fullest. Adventure is out there, go and find it.

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.
