I Have a Guy Best Friend, and That's Okay
Anna Thompson

Many people think that girls can't have boy best friends because they will end up falling for them. Sometimes that's the case, but not all the time. I have a guy best friend because he gives me a man's perspective on different issues that are happening in my life. He gives me advice about how to deal with all the men in my life, and that's very helpful. I think of my guy best friend as a big brother. He's there for me in a way that no one else has been.

I do NOT have romantic feelings for my best friend. My best friend and I have had many emotional conversations, but at the end of the day they don't change anything in our friendship. I know I can go to him for anything that's been happening in my life and he will give me an unbiased opinion. The best thing about having a guy best friend is the fact that there's rarely ever any drama.

Not only does he give me an unbiased opinion, but he gives me a non-emotional opinion. My best friend is more than a best friend, he's like a brother. He may drive me crazy and make me mad at him, but at the end of the day he would take a bullet for me and for that I am forever grateful. Having a boy as a best friend was the best thing I have ever done and I'm glad to not only call him my best friend, but my "little" brother.

Finding the good in any situation can help you to find happiness in some of the simplest and unexpected places.

6 Things Owning A Cat Has Taught Me
Liz Abere

Owning a pet can get difficult and expensive. Sometimes, their vet bills cost hundreds of dollars just for one visit. On top of that, pets also need food, a wee wee pad for a dog, a litter box with litter for a cat, toys, and treats. Besides having to spend hundreds of dollars on them, they provide a great companion and are almost always there when you need to talk to someone. For the past six years, I have been the proud owner of my purebred Bengal cat named Spock. Although he's only seven years and four months old, he's taught me so much. Here's a few of the things that he has taught me.

It's fun to see all of the selfies on social media, they are everywhere. I see pictures with pouty lips, duck lips and pucker lips. I see smokey eyes, huge fake lashes and nicely done nose jobs, boob jobs and butt lifts. Women working out in spandex, tiny tops and flip flops. I see tight abs and firm butts, manicured nails and toes, up dos and flowing hair. "Wow", I think to myself," I could apply tons of make-up, spend an hour on my hair, pose all day and not look like that. Maybe I need a longer stick!"
