I've had my fair share of furry little four-legged friends over the years. Lately, I've been missing having my special little pal waiting at home for me with their rapidly wagging tail and dopey little face. I've been trying to convince my parents to let me bring home a pup for ages now and I'm hoping this list of all the reasons dogs rule will help support my case.

1. Every time you come home they'll greet you at the door like they haven't seen you in years.

No matter how long you've been gone, they are always so happy to see you.

2. You won't find a more loyal companion than a pup

3. They never argue about what to watch on TV.

They're happy to just cuddle up on the couch next to you.

4. Pups know that it's all about the simplest things in life.

It doesn't take much to make them happy.

5. Dogs are the ultimate workout pal.

They're always up for a long walk/jog around the neighborhood.

6. They always know when something is wrong

And are willing to smother you in endless amounts of kisses and a good old fashioned snuggle.

7. Your pooch will keep your bed warm in those cold winter months.

It's like having your own personal space heater.

8. Slobbery dog kisses are some of the best kisses.

9. Pups know nothing but unconditional love for their owner.

When you think about it, they're actually way too precious for this world.

10. Hanging out with your little doggo friend is one of the best ways to relieve stress

Especially after a long work day.

11. Dogs are super protective of their owners

So you'll know that they'll always have your back.

12. Pups encourage us to get out there and explore.

They're curious little creatures that will fill your life with adventure.

13. They're guaranteed to bring laughter and smiles to your everyday life.

14. You can dress your doggo up for the holidays.

Santa hats, heart shaped sunglasses, New Years hats, you name it.

15. Let's be honest, they're better selfie takers than most of the people you know.

16. Their positive attitude is infectious.

17. Even when they do something wrong, they're adorable.

I mean how can you stay mad at that face?

18. Pups teach patience and responsibility.

19. I mean nothing against cats, but pups do their business outside

Which is a huge plus, in my opinion.

20. They'll improve your social life.

C'mon, we're all guilty of talking to someone on the street just to get a chance to pet their pup.

21. Dogs will listen to anything you have to say

Giphy

And the best part is that they won't judge you.

22. Pups are super smart, so you can teach them to do all sorts of cool tricks.

23. Their favorite thing to do is to make you happy.

Imagine coming home to someone whose sole desire is to make you happy.

24. Pups make the best vacuum cleaners.

I mean have you seen how fast they'll snatch up spilled snacks?

25. Have you seen them?

Just look at that face.

26. Dogs are the best friend that anyone could have.

Their love and loyalty never expires so honestly, what other reason do you need?

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.
