Dogs only live for so long, but they leave a lasting impact on your heart and in your life. They simply are the best pet and friend you could ask for. There are many reasons why dogs are the superior pet, but the ones that stand out to me the most are,

They are often full of energy and happiness.

Cait Garlick

Even when your dog sometimes drives you crazy, it is always nice to see them because they boost your mood no matter what.

They are the best cuddle buddies.

Dom Carey

No one is a better cuddle buddy then your dog, I mean come on, they are super soft from their fur alone.

They become your best friend.

Madyson Thompson

You can't really describe it, but somehow they become your favorite, and your relationship with them is super strong.

They can swim with you, run with you, or simply go anywhere / do anything with you.

Chris Shopa

This is probably why they become your best friends. You can go on walks, take them to the lake, or even just lay with them, and they are always excited for all of it.

They are your protectors.

Jada Ortiz

Some don't always seem like the scariest dogs, but they will always have your best interests at heart and want to protect you.

They are always thrilled to see you when you come home.

Dom Carey

We often forget their time here is shorter than ours, and just an hour for us feels longer for them, so even just being gone for a quick lunch leaves them missing you.

They want everyone you introduce them to, to look and feel safe, and be happy.

Madyson Thompson

Dogs are the most caring, and selfless individuals and that means they want everyone they encounter to be happy.

They give the best slobbery kisses.

Nicole Scott

Yeah it is kinda gross, but it is always appreciated as it is their way of showing us how much they love us.

They give the best comfort, because they can tell when you're sad even if no one else can.

Madyson Thompson

Dogs seem to have a special sense that lets them feel when we're not doing our best, and then they are quick to comfort us as best as they can.

They always think that they're lap dogs, even when they're not.

Madyson Thompson

Yup, no matter how big they get they always seem to think they are still small enough to sit on your lap.

They make you laugh all the time.

Madyson Thompson

They let you dress them up, and they always do something funny that you find yourself cracking up at, and taking pictures or videos to share the laugh.

They make you feel like they understand everything you're saying, which makes them great listeners.

Chris Thompson

I mean they listen to sit, or paw, so why wouldn't they be able to hear everything else you say to them, plus you're always right when talking to them.

They are so good with little kids.

Dean Jakeman

They love babies, and toddlers, just as much as we do, and they're usually so good with them, just wanting to play with them, or being by their side.

If they're not running around driving you crazy, they're sleeping, which makes for the best pictures.

Cait Garlick

Who doesn't love a picture of a dog sleeping, they're always so cute!

They're not just a dog, they're a part of your family.

Jess Jones-Thompson

Literally, they're another family member, not just your pet dog.

They love you even more than you love them.

Madyson Thompson

We are all they have in this life, and so they have a special kind of love for us.

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.
