'Queer Eye' Is The Best Show In 2018, And It's What The World Has Needed
Netflix

Netflix's new show "Queer Eye" just came out a month ago, and since then it has shown us how important and relatable some reality shows can actually be. It is not your typical you-need-to-change-your-outfit-to-feel-better makeover show but it takes time to show the viewers who you are is important and how you present yourself to the world shows how you will be treated. Queer Eye is jam-packed, full to the brim of advice, especially for your emotional well-being.

So many people are talking about the rebooted makeover show, where a "Fab Five" sort another's guy's life out in a frankly impossible three days. The Fab Five spent an equal amount of time and effort working on each guy's emotional well-being, rather than just redoing his outfits and his house. So many makeover shows give the impression that looking good and having a nice house equate to being happy and feeling good, but Queer Eye shows you that is just the beginning.

Most makeover shows focus on that person's negatives and expand on them but the Fab Five always find positives about the guy and expand on that. Queer Eye shows that you are amazing just the way you are. It is less about changing who you are and more about nurturing what you already have.

This show brings out advice for the participant but also for the viewers. After watching it, it makes you feel that you need to stop neglecting your emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being. They also focus on body positivity, with special attention given to the fact that the world won't open up unless you let it by opening yourself up.

It is a show that deconstructs toxic masculinity and shows how opening up and talking about your emotions is not a weakness. And, of course, it is a show that reminds you that it is never too late to change the things about yourself that you are unhappy with.

Queer Eye is a wholesome, lovely show that is extremely good for your mental health and you have to watch it if you are in the mood for people just being genuinely really fucking lovely to each other.

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.
