An Open Letter To The Person Picking Their Nose In Traffic

Don't lie, you've done it too.

It's no secret that if you're strapped for a tissue or really just don't care about hygiene, you've probably picked your nose while driving. No jugements here, just a friend with a tale of her own. Well, this one is for you, friends. Enjoy this story about other drivers who pick their noses too.

Dear person next to me picking their nose in traffic,

You don't think anyone sees you. You look around, apprehensively, wondering if anyone is looking from their car windows at you while you sit in 5 PM traffic like always. I see you scan the cars, while I pretend not to notice, and you don't see my lingering eyes on you as you then reach right up with your index finger and dig for gold nuggets in your nostril without a care in the world.

What happened next, dude? Where did that booger go? What did you do with it? Did you have a napkin hidden away in your car, or did you throw it on the floor? I will never know, and that question will haunt me forever. If only I could ask you where did that booger go?!

And then, you carried on like it was nothing. You checked yourself in the rear view mirror, sniffed up any lingering particles, and went on your way. I'll always remember you, snot man.

Don't get me wrong, we all pick our noses. I admire you for being so bold in your search for gold while waiting in traffic. Sometimes I wish I could be that dedicated, but I prefer tissues. So, carry on! Pick your nose with pride! Don't let anyone tell you otherwise!

And now, to end my letter on nose-picking, I give you a joke from my father:

"I thought it was a booger, but it's snot!" LOL (read it out loud). Get it? Get it?

Sincerely,

The girl in the car next to you

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.
