Does International Women's Day have you feeling empowered and ready to take on the world? Hold on to that feeling. Celebrating your womanhood does not have to only happen once a year, it can happen everyday! Here are just a few of the ways you can celebrate your inner goddess.

1. Wear Whatever You Want Because You Are Strong And Beautiful.

As long as you feel comfortable and confident, you should feel good about showcasing your body in whatever way you choose.


2. Donate To A Cause You Care About.

Examples include Planned Parenthood, Tostan, and Girls Not Brides. However, there is an amazing amount of other worthwhile charities.


3. Have An Open And Honest Discussion About Your Ambition And Goals With Your Friends.

The more we discuss all the incredible things we want to do in life, the more we inspire each other.


4. Have An Open And Honest Discussion About Feminism With Men.

Approach this situation as calmly as possible, like Emma Watson. Sometimes the biggest disconnect is just a lack of understanding.


5. Watch A Movie/Show With A Strong Female Lead.

Netflix has this as a category for a reason! You'll feel inspired and ready to take on the world.


6. Pay A Random Compliment To A Woman.

It may seem small, but when we build each other up, we all feel more empowered.


7. Donate Your Time By Helping At A Women's Shelter.

There are more than you think, and you can volunteer to play with children or serve a meal.


8. Tell Your Female Role Models How Much They Mean To You.

You can do this with flowers or a hand-written letter. Just speak from the heart and let them know all the ways they inspire you.


These are just eight simple ways you can keep every day feeling like International Women's Day. If a man asks you why there's a women's day and not a men's day, avoid ripping their head off and simply explain the importance.

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.
