Believe it or not, young adults still appreciate quality oldies music. There is a preconceived notion that the newer generations don’t appreciate the past, but that is certainly not true. Young adults have learned from the past and we were just simply put into new circumstances than anyone from the 50s, 60s, 70s, and 80s. But one thing sure is true, and that is the fact that we wished we were alive to see one of our favorite bands from the past.

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.

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.
