We are generation offended, leading the world to destructive harmony.

Why Hipsters Are The New Aristocrats
Zdorov Krill Vladimirovich

Hipsters are the new Aristocrats, acting as a counterculture to the emergence of a deeply engrained culture of minorities.

The act of reappropriating ethnic communities into a boulevard of coffee shops and brew houses perpetuates the breeding of blind leaders herding robotic sheep of the exact same political interest and intellect.

This type of mindset has rapidly transformed millennials into heralds of justice, deserving of total equality. The emergence of cynical aristocratic hipsters has reared an artificial set of values; a set of values that seeks a comfort concealed behind a wall we've titled, "safety."

A growing ignorance refuses to recognize the detriment. Millennials are a group of intellectually and technologically advanced adults, teenagers, and kids, all not nearly diverse enough it seems.

Technological advancements have encouraged a robotic society, deceptively molding us into a single prototype. More so, we've become a society so alike that we've lost individual allure and inherent differences.

The reemergence of commonality has deviated us further. Millennials are individuals living in an advanced and changing world. We occupy a country that promotes freedom of speech, yet our overt sensitivity has reconstructed and limited constitutional freedoms.

We're idealists in a world of drastic occurrences, reinhabiting the mentality of 1970's America. The recreation of political disgust, protest, unjustified hatred, and the cultural promotion of "one love," has intensified into an almost unified desire for socialist anarchy.

We, millennials, future leaders of America, walk like gods but forget the bones beneath our feet have lessons that we will never know we need to know.

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.
