Dogs Are Better Than Boys

Dogs are there more for us than boys are.

Dogs Are Better Than Boys
Kori McKeever
Who needs boys?

As I've gotten older it seems everyone I know is either getting into new relationships, getting engaged, or getting married while I sit at home on Friday nights and binge watching Netflix with my dog. The situation is not one of the worst to be in. In my opinion, it is one of the best. Instead of dwelling on the fact that my weeks are without a special "date night" I'm going to list the positives of having a dog.

1. Dogs are always down to cuddle.

It doesn't matter what time of day.

2. You have the perfect co-pilot on every road trip.

Roll the windows down and turn on the tunes.

3. They're always happy when you come home.

If you leave for thirty minutes or a week, you will be missed greatly.

4. They won't mind when you're in the mood for a romcom.

Groaning and complaining isn't really their style.

5. You have the best exercise buddy.

Just by spelling the word walk you can get a reaction out of almost every dog.

6. There will be no complaints about your cooking.

Chances are they won't even taste it as they scarf it down.

7. There will always be someone ready to protect you.

Even if it is just from the innocent pizza guy.

8. Dogs don't mind what you look like in the morning.

Chances are they won't mind sleeping in either.

9. You will have someone who constantly enjoys your company.

Between all the treats and belly rubs your dog will never leave you.

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.
