As someone who absolutely loves "Modern Family" I wanted to show some of Phil's finer "Phil-osophies" and other sayings. From one of the best dads on TV to your screen, here is Phil Dunphy.

1. For when life gives you lemonade...

Maybe you can't make an egg from an omelet but why not try making lemons from lemonade?

2. On being a "cool" dad...

Uncool dads, you should start taking notes.

3. On being original...

You really can't argue with this logic, while everyone else is trying to think outside the box, no one's thinking inside the box. Think inside the box people.

4. For showing how dads think...

Phil Dunphy really knows how to represent all the dads out there. What dad doesn't want their kids to call them for help when they're forty and living in their own house with their own family.

5. For explaining something ~adult~ to a child in the best way possible...

6. For proving that he really is the coolest dad...

The nonchalant way he says this makes it even more amazing.

7. For explaining life so well...

So simple yet so real.

8. For defining how it truly feels to be a parent...

What a perfect way to describe how a kid really makes you feel. Happy, not stressed or angry but they actually prevent you from becoming sad.

9. For trying to make someone feel better...

Yes, he tried making making someone feel better but he inadvertently "backwards complimented" himself. A true dad thing to do.

10. Because I thought Cam would feel left out...

Beautifully said, Cam, beautifully said.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
