February 13th is coming just around the corner. During this season, you may be thinking about that special someone and the perfect gift to get them. However, on February 13th, we set aside romance and think about the women in our lives and ways to show our appreciation for them.

You may be thinking, what is the world is Galentine's day? Well, you can thank episode sixteen of season two of Parks and Recreation. This is the episode where Leslie gathers all of her gal pals to lunch and celebrates each of them. It's a day for ladies to celebrate ladies.

In a time where there is so much division in politics regarding women whether it be reproductive rights, equal pay, the #MeToo movement, and so on, Galentine's day is needed more than ever. It's a time to look at the ladies in your life and appreciate them for who they are, just like Valentine's day, but platonic.

Never celebrated Galentine's day or just don't know what to get your friends? Fret not! Below you will find a list of 13 ideas for you to show your friends how much you appreciate them in your life.

2. Face masks.

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.
