My House Is Haunted

but it's ok, we are friends

For as long as I can remember, we have had a ghost that lives in my house. Out of respect, I have changed her name to Judy. Judy died in our bathroom about 25 years ago. She's pretty nice. She does not do anything that's mean or malicious.

We did not have any major encounters with her and only the people that believed in her, saw her.

Anyways, we coexist.

She's pretty cool honestly and only shows up every so often.

My family got a new dog in January and she was not a fan of having a puppy around for sure.

Our last dog passed in July of 2018 and he was really calm for the most part. So when we got a new, very playful puppy, she made it known she did not really like him.

Judy was never mean to him by any means, but anytime it was just me and him in the house, he would start barking and growling at random things in the house. She would knock pictures and paintings off the walls.

I was sitting in the living room watching tv with my puppy sitting next to me. All of a sudden my dog got off the couch and starting barking at a painting on the wall. I got worried and started to grab him when the painting flew off the wall, falling to the ground.

Our house was the same house she lived in. We changed things here and there but for the most part, it was the same.

Recently, we started renovating our house, specifically first our bathroom (the one she passed in) so when we started doing that, she would get upset and throw things off of the countertops.

Once, my bag was in the middle of the countertop and there was no way it could have fallen off. But it somehow dropped to the floor with a lot of force.

Most people would be scared at the thought of a ghost living in their house, but I don't know, I am not too upset about it. She has never hurt anyone or the dog but she makes her presence known.

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.
