I Owe Everything To My Mom

My mom deserves a lot of credit for being there for me through everything. I find myself thinking of everything she has done for me in my lifetime and I can't think of anyone better who could have raised me besides my parents. People may say I'm a clone of her, but I just see another phenomenal woman who I get to call my mother. We share similar characteristics, but I can't imagine who I would be without her. If you know her, then you are blessed to have met her. I am forever grateful for who I was raised to be because of her and my dad. I have been blessed with what I like to call the best parents ever.

I can't imagine watching any other shows with anyone else and who knows which "Real Housewives" is the best season. I hope that my relationship with my future children are similar to how I was raised. I can't imagine not knowing the knowledge and topics, I know today. My parents have taught me so much about being a better person and friend. I hope that I find someone in my life to appreciate reality shows and good food.

My mom is someone I can look up to and know that someone is always going to be there. She is someone that always has the answers and can be honest with me 100 percent. I'm fortunate to know such a caring, selfless family member. Through the numerous mission trips and cruises, we have made so many memories. I can't think of someone who I could share all those memories with. I am so grateful that my mom chose to spend that many mission trips with me and share the love for our religion. I know that my mom has guided me through a lot of different situations and life in general. I know I wouldn't know half of the information I know today.

I owe a lot to my mom and dad. I can't imagine my life without the parents that I have. My family dynamic has taught me so much about myself and who I want to be in the coming years. I hope that my life in the future is half as blessed as I was in my childhood. I guess I wouldn't be the person who I am today as I hope to be in the future. My mom has been such an influence in my life and I can't wait for what the future holds. I am so glad that I have a great relationship with my mom and I hope I'm half the woman she is.

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.
