Maroon 5's newest music video to 'Girls Like You' only came out 2 weeks ago and yet it already has 158 million views. They are known for their unique music videos, such as crashing weddings during their hit, 'Sugar'. However, 'Girls Like You' has already scored million's of people's hearts, especially mine. And here is why.

This music video is known for showcasing many popular female celebrities, journalists, models, and activists, from popular talk show host Ellen Degeneres to Olympic gymnast Ally Raisman. Of course, lead singer Adam Levine even included his wife, Behati Prinsloo. Before watching this video, one would expect all of the featured women to look the same: white skin, blonde hair, skinny, and supermodel-like. I felt the same as well- 'ANOTHER video with the same looking women?' Maroon 5 definitely exceeded my expectations.

'Girls Like You' includes women of ALL races, religions, sizes, and looks. It's so important that everyone sees how much we need diversity, and argues that all women are beautiful. When I looked at all of these women, I saw nothing but pure beauty, and couldn't help but think 'Oh my gosh, she's so gorgeous. I wish I had the confidence she has'.

We need to realize that all women are beautiful. Race, religion, etc. don't matter. Frankly, I applaud Maroon 5 for the decision to include a variety of women, not just the typical women. I believe that more diversity=more power. No matter who we are, we have the ability to change the world and ourselves. All women are strong regardless of the way we look. All women must work together to make a change, to make a difference.

As women, we can not let others look down on us. As shown by all the women featured in the video, they have all been successful. Some are well-known activists. Some are famous comedians. A few are popular authors. Women aren't meant to stay at home to take care of their children and wash the dishes. Women are meant to put themselves out there and show they world what they've got. Women are more powerful than one may think, and this video shows just that.

This is why Maroon 5 made my heart melt. That's another point for them in my book.

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.
