A Letter To The Kardashian-Jenner Family

You have a responsibility.

A Letter To The Kardashian-Jenner Family

Dear Kardashian-Jenner Family,

Let me start off by saying I watch your show all the time--almost religiously. It's my guilty pleasure. While not all that much happens in each episode, for some reason I find your lives interesting.

It's intriguing to see the amount of shoes that the line shelves of your closets that are bigger than the entire first floor of my house. I love seeing the clothes you wear, the houses you live in, the cars you drive, the designer bags that hang on your arm, and the amazing heels you strut through life in.

It's jaw-dropping knowing that at 19, Kylie lives on her own in a big, gorgeous house and has her own successful makeup line (which I have already spent more money on than I'd like to admit), Kim and Kanye are basically the King and Queen, and Kendall dominates the modeling industry.

You are all quickly taking over the world.

However, there are some things I have a real problem with, and I feel as though many people my age feel the same way.

All of you are so, outrageously famous. Everyone knows you, and everyone watches you. You have a responsibility to them. With all of your success and status comes a duty. A duty to be respectful of those that respect you, and be honest with them.

My biggest problem is with the plastic surgery. If you have an overwhelming insecurity that you've never been able to overcome, I say, sure, go ahead, fix it if you are able. But be honest about it. You have the power to have a huge impact on the lives of people you don't even know exist. There are little girls that are going to grow up believing that they should look like you--that it's possible for us 'normal people' to look like you without the help of a needle. And they are going to do whatever it takes to achieve that.

I'm not a doctor or statistician or a psychiatrist, but this troubles me in that I see it leading to greater insecurity, more eating disorders and body-image issues. I know you all promote being healthy and feeling comfortable in your own skin, but it's easy to see that you haven't simply relied on diet and exercise.

So I ask you, for younger generations that will grow up knowing you, to think. Think about what you say and do. Think about how you got to where you are now. And think about who you owe that to. Think about what you owe them for helping give you the life you have: respect and honesty.

You wouldn't be so successful without all of your fans supporting you, buying your products, following you on social media, and like me, watching KUWTK every Sunday night.

Sincerely,

A concerned fan

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
