What Every Dog Deserves

Only the best

What Every Dog Deserves
Jessie Price

Every dog deserves a ball that he can run after again and again.

A ball that is his, and only his.

Every dog deserves a soft, cushy bed that she can snuggle up in.

A bed that makes her feel as safe as her owner's embrace.

Every dog deserves an endless supply of toys that he can choose from.

And one go-to toy that trumps the rest.

Every dog deserves a blanket that she can curl up in, or play with on occasion.

A blanket that is as warm as her heart.

Every dog deserves treats every once in a while.

And human treats on very rare occasions (or not so rare).

Every dog deserves a stick that he can fetch.

A stick that could keep him entertained for hours.

Every dog deserves a yard to lay in.

A yard full of sunshine that she can bask in.

Every dog deserves a spot on his owner's bed.

A spot that is as inviting as his smile.

Every dog deserves a good belly rub.

The kind of belly rub that automatically strikes a reflex and makes her leg shake in delight.

Every dog deserves a home full of love.

A home that always welcomes her.

Every dog deserves a family.

A family that would do anything for her.

Every dog deserves selflessness.

The kind of selflessness they demonstrate for us on instinct.

Every dog deserves love.

The kind of love that is pure. The kind of love we as humans can learn from.

Every human should have a dog.

Because dogs can turn a heart of stone into tender mush.

Every human should have a dog...

Because every dog, deserves a human.

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.
