December is the month where neighborhoods put on their Christmas lights. Christmas lights show their Christmas spirit. During the daytime, the lights are not on. At nighttime, the lights are on. They blend with the night. They make the dark not scary as you drive. The lights are very beautiful and colorful. You can look at them as you drive to your destination. Christmas lights show that people are passionate about Christmas. These lights make us feel the spirit as well.

This year, a lot of houses have Christmas lights. Some houses have more Christmas lights than they did before. I would like to see it soon this month. I recall that my family and I go around the neighborhoods to see the Christmas lights. Each house has its own lights and decorations. Some houses have fewer lights and decorations. Other houses have more lights and decorations. I heard that some houses are competing with other houses when it comes to Christmas lights.

My family and I do not put on Christmas lights. Some family members think that we should while one family member thinks that we should not. We have to buy Christmas lights and they can be very expensive. Also, it takes a lot of time and effort to put Christmas lights on our house. The more lights you have, the more work you have. Some houses have a lot of lights. That means that the people living in those houses used a lot of time and effort to put them up.

After Christmas is over, neighborhoods start to put away their lights and decorations. Some houses still kept their lights on for a while until late winter. I miss the lights and decorations. However, I know that they will come back next Christmas. Do you put Christmas lights on your house? Do you like looking at Christmas lights?

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.
