The Danger In Hyping Danielle Bregoli

Where it's that randomly picture pops up on your Twitter feed at 3 a.m., or that annoying Vine that all of your friends are watching, memes are a huge part of online culture.

The common beauty many of us can find in memes are their short lifespan. Internet memes can last from a couple weeks to years, but there's nothing that's quite annoying as a meme that just can't seem to let go.

Need an example? Look no further than the current yet relevant life of Danielle Bregoli, aka the "Cash Me Outside" girl.

I can't imagine a soul who isn't somewhat familiar with the life of the online sensation, but very few seem to recognize the problem in America's obsession with the 13 year old.

Since her debut on Dr. Phil's program in September 2016, Bergoli has went on to gain a followup episode, thousands of Twitter and Instagram followers, a clothing line and an infamous remix to her dialogue from the show that made its way on Billboard's Hot 100 chart.

There are probably many other accolades the preteen has achieved during her fame stunt, but I honestly can't find the energy to care about them unlike the majority of America's youth.

The problem with Bregoli's spontaneous online presence isn't her success, it's the reasons behind her fame.

American culture seems to have a major obsession with watching people fail and be messy.

Now I know that Bregoli doesn't seem to be failing with her current success, but the fact is that Bregoli is the farthest image from most 13 year olds.

Americans seem to hype the craziest things through social media. Whether it's a Twitter battle between classmates or shade thrown among celebrities, people love drama but never seem to care about the potential effects that follow.

Remember how I mentioned that all memes eventually come to pass? This is a common fact and I think it's safe to say that everyone will be annoyed if Danielle Bregoli is still challenging people to meet her outside when she's 21.

Presenting individuals such as Bregoli with the concept of fame is highly dangerous because the truth is the 13 year old isn't famous for any real talent; she's famous for her reckless acts.

At the core, American's aren't concerned with Bregoli's wellbeing, they're anxious to see the next reckless thing on the girl's checklist.

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.
