Why Dogs Are Better Than People

It's true.

Why Dogs Are Better Than People
Gabrielle Chester

There is just something so great about a dog; and, if you're a dog owner, then you know exactly what I'm talking about. Whether it be their unconditional love, their loyalty, or their unique personality, something about them continues to make us smile. Even when they do something wrong and you're so mad at them, I promise their wagging tail and head tilt will soften you up in no time.

Dogs literally sense when you are upset or hurting. They have the ability to understand a situation even with the language barrier, all while giving you comfort and love. Research literally says that dogs decrease anxiety and insomnia for their owners. So basically they are fluffy, furry, balls of magic and everyone should have one.

Dogs are actually the most loyal breathing things on this planet. Why else would they serve with us in the army and within our police forces. Dogs are forever companions that will never leave your side if they had any choice in the matter. I swear their hearts must be 3 times the size of ours with all the love & loyalty they give.

Dogs are super funny, each with unique personalities. We all see the videos trending on Facebook, dogs are friggin hysterical. From mimicking owners to snuggling with babies they do it all. My dog personally really enjoys watching TV with me. So there's that.

Dogs are the best cuddle buddies with the cutest sleeping positions. They can literally sleep whenever and wherever their little heart desires. My little puppy is sprawled out on his back, arms in the air passed out as we speak.

No matter what kind of dog you have, they are all pretty incredible. People in this world can be pretty sucky, so how lucky are we to have dogs as our forever best friends. So go ahead and thank your pup for all their love & support! If you don't have a dog, you should. So go adopt now!

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.
