What If We Had Floating Houses?

Maybe the idea isn't so far?

Okay, So humor me.

This is spring of 2016. Next school year, the class of 2020 starts their freshman year. By the time they graduate.. It's only about a century away from 2121- also the year that the futuristic family from Disney's Phil of The Future.

I'm not sure if you understand. We are almost a hundred years from living the life of Phil! (before he ended up in highschool while we were in middle school)

So this got me thinking. If our great grandchildren will live in the future, what will they have?

We've passed the time of "Back to The Future" and saw all of the things that aren't actually a thing yet (like real hoverboards) but what if my great grandchild will have cool things like flying cars or floating houses.

What if my lineage can wake up, press a button and their house fly to work while they get ready for work in the morning. Then they could press a beeper to send it off and retrieve it, so it's not just floating above their place of business.

Now, I'm not talking a Floating House like in Disney's "UP" with a bunch of balloons. That is so.. 2009.

Guys. WHAT IF HOUSES COULD FLY?! (or we could put two giant wheels on the side of our house and call it a hover-house)

Does that mean everything would fly?

Cities could lift above the clouds! No longer worrying about wind and rain to damage buildings. In a storm? Just lift out of it!

Dogs and cats flying around like the Jetsons?

But not only that! if a house can fly that means people have been flying for decades, which means flight is closer than we think!

Can we get someone working on this immediately? I had the idea, now let's make this reality!

Oh! I'm getting emotional! Isn't it nice to have an imagination sometimes? It comes in handy especially to procrastinate.

That is all, Thanks for your time.

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.
