Whoever said that being clumsy was a bad thing? That person was sadly mistaken because being clumsy has a lot of perks! Get ready to learn why clumsy people have it so great!

1. Battle Scars


Remember the time you accidentally punched yourself in the face and got a black eye? Instead of telling people what really happened, I'm sure you came up with a pretty cool story about how you got in a fight with Mike Tyson because you were both going for the last cookie at the buffet.

2. Free Service


Not many people easily trust you with cutting cakes, lighting candles, or even opening chip bags, so they will usually do the task for you. Don't take any offense to their helpfulness! Instead of putting out whatever fire you would have caused, you are now being given an opportunity to sit back and relax.

3. High Pain Tolerance


Considering you fall at least three times per day and have probably broken several bones within the past year, you need that high pain tolerance in order to get you through life.

4. Pro Choreographer


Your clumsiness has probably resulted in some amazing new dance moves! Wasn't the "Nae-Nae" created when some guy spilled a drink on his lap? No? Well, let's pretend that's what really happened.

5. In Good Company


Trust me when I say that you are not the lone klutz in this world. Take Jennifer Lawrence, for example: she fell up the stairs at the Academy Awards in 2014. There are many clumsy people out there, so keep your head up! Seriously, keep your head up; you don't want to walk into the wall.

6. The Emergency Room is Your Second Home

You basically know all of the nurses in the emergency room at this point.

7. Preparation Nation


No matter where you go or what you're doing, you are always prepared for a stain, cut, fire, or broken leg.

8. Relatable


Just because you're clumsy doesn't mean people like you any less. If anything, they probably find you relatable because who hasn't had an embarrassing fall in their life or set something on fire? We're all a natural klutz at heart, so embrace your clumsiness!

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.
