Kylie Jenner Promoted Self-Love With Her Pregnancy

And why you should be like Kylie.

I think, as a society, we all too often create hype and obsessions over celebrities who aren't doing anything exceptional with their lives. Personally, I wasn't Kylie Jenner's biggest fan prior to this Super Bowl Sunday. I just didn't see anything special, I respected the fact that she had such a successful cosmetic business and had created a Kylie "empire" but she didn't build her name up on her own, she was born into it. I didn't get the obsession, even though I had been a loyal KUWTK watcher all my grade school years.

I can't even begin to explain how much respect I now have for Kylie because of how she dealt with her pregnancy. It wasn't showy, it wasn't overly-hyped, it was hers. She wanted to have her pregnancy to herself without having the entire world watching it from every angle, and that's exactly what she got. I am so impressed by Kylie's choice, it made this part of her life more personal and special when she easily could've put a glaring spotlight on the situation.

But she didn't. And I think Kylie Jenner represented loving her life and herself through keeping her pregnancy low-key in a way that we should all be able to incorporate into our own lives.

The way that I see this is Kylie knew that putting her pregnancy out there and releasing this intimate part of her life to the world would naturally stir up negative things and comments from people that she would rather not hear during this special time in her life. It's so impressive that Kylie decided to love her decision for herself to go through with her pregnancy at only twenty years old rather than releasing her decision to the world to weigh the opinions of her millions of adoring fans. It shows a sense of satisfaction and love she had for herself and her own life with this decision that she wanted to keep it more private.

I'm not saying we all should get pregnant or that we should all refrain from sharing any good news on social media, but I am saying that it's important to love your decision for yourself before you bring anyone else into the equation.

Loving our lives and ourselves seems easy but honestly, a lot of us struggle with it. From Kylie, I think we can all take a step back and realize that it is our lives and no one else's. You don't need to ask five of your friends if your outfit looks okay before you go on the date or what to text back to the boy you've been talking to, you need to love your decisions first for yourself. You need to love who you are and your life first, before anyone else can (or can't). And really who cares about what everyone else thinks? At the end of the day, you're the one that has to be happy with the decisions you've made and the life you've chosen to live.

Loving your life isn't an eight-step program or something that can be accomplished in five minutes, it takes a lot of time to really get the gist of it. But beginning with caring about your, and only your, opinion on your life and your decisions will help you see yourself and your life and new and happier light. You are worth so much and you shouldn't ever forget that you are the one that counts most in your life, so make yourself happy, love yourself, and love your life.

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.
