The Power Of The Letter J

Bless up, J.

The letter J. Such an innocent letter of the English alphabet. But what is its power in a different context? What is its power when indulged in the sphere of entertainment? The letter J has blessed us with some of entertainment's finest, and of course my favorites. So it's actually not as innocent as it seems. Because of these people we know and love, J has evolved into one of the most powerful and influential letters of the English alphabet... or at least of my own thoughts.

Justin Timberlake

The master of entertainment's assets: music, dance, television and film. How does he do it? Hilarious as a guest on "Saturday Night Live" one minute and selling out at the Staples Center the next. I feel gifted to even be able to witness just how talented he is. He has given us some of life's best gifts, including '90s all-Denim outfits, N*SYNC, "Sexyback," "20/20 Experience" and a whole lot of laughs and gasps -- none other than JT.

Jay-Z

Despite being put on blast in Beyoncé's "Lemonade," Sean Carter, aka Jay-Z, is one of the most successful men in the entire world. He has a $600 million estimated earnings for 2016 alone. ONE. YEAR. ALONE. WHAT. I am lucky if I even make $6,000 in a year. Wait, why am I even trying to compare myself to him? I do not have 13 number one albums, own record companies, manage artists, own a clothing line or anything.

Jimmy Fallon

The oh-so-hilarious James Fallon. My favorite comedian and with that, one of my favorite people. Having seen him live for the first time a few months ago, I have grown to appreciate his intelligence in the television sphere even more. Not only do his sketches amaze me, but the way he has evolved into the person he has become also amazes me. He was not born into fame, he made it for himself. I do not know what I would do with my weeknights at 11:35 p.m. if he didn't land a spot on "SNL" in 1998. Thanks, Lorne.

Justin Bieber

Do I really need to say anything?

Jennifer Aniston

This girl is 47 and still looks this good. A role model for women of any age -- a role model for anybody, actually. Jennifer ruled the '90s, ruled the '00s and is ruling the '10s right now with her beauty, intelligence and talent in television and film. Let us not forget her amazing performances in every episode of "Friends."

Jennifer Lawrence

J-Law. New but not so new as a celebrity. As a powerful feminist and actress, Jennifer Lawrence is also a great role model for anyone. She is one to not care what others think and always stays true to her own values. Whether she's Katniss Everdeen, Rosalyn Rosenfeld, or just herself, J-Law is the boss we all aspire to be friends with.

Jennifer Lopez

Straight outta the Bronx, Jennifer Lopez made her mark as a young dancer who reached stardom on "In Living Color." Over the years she has built herself up to be one of the world's greatest entertainers and actresses -- not to mention her beauty and great personality! She is also one to represent the power in all women. Just like JT, is there anything she cannot do?

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.
