An Ode To Socks

Life may get you down, but socks never will!

An Ode To Socks

If you know anything about me, you know that socks are one of my favorite things. They can’t be just any socks though. They have to be the ones with, say, cute little sloths on them for example.

Life may get you down, but fun socks never will (unless they start to die, in which case it might be rough day). Thankfully, however, socks generally have a decent life span and you don’t have to worry about a pair dying on the daily.

Generally, socks will always be there to brighten your day. You may fail a test, but at least you have hot pink socks with bananas on them. How can you not smile about that?

Weather got you down? Go with the flow and wear your sailboat socks!

Happy just because? Show it with your socks that have cheerful elephants riding bicycles!

Love to skate, but can’t currently be on the ice? Pretend to be on the ice with your skating penguin socks!

Can’t wait until summer? Get the tropical feels by wearing your sky-blue socks with parrots on them!

Feeling super cool? Wear one of your many pairs of Spiderman socks!

You see, you really can’t go wrong with a good pair of socks.

While I love them all, one of my favorites are ones with cacti simply because who in the world owns socks with cacti?! Well, I do!

Call me crazy, but I actually have a list going of socks I want. Ones with manatees, giraffe socks, and monkey socks just to name a few. I could go on, but then we would be here all day.

Want to start a sock collection, but don't know where to go? Have no fear, I got an answer! Target! I'd be lying if I say I haven't made a stop at Target just to see if they've updated their sock collection.

Need a day to celebrate? December 4th is National Sock Day!

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.
