10 Questions We Have All Had Since 2020 Started

Let's hope we make it to 2021.

1. What if I die?

There have been many instances this year that the thought of dying has crossed my mind. From the threat of World War III to the coronavirus outbreak it's hard to catch a break. I can't remember the last time that I haven't felt an impending doom looming over my head.

2. What if we all die?

We can't help but wonder when climate change is finally going to catch up to us and the Earth becomes inhabitable.

3. Should I even bother to have kids?

If the Earth becomes inhabitable within my lifetime, it might be unethical to bring kids into this world to suffer from the consequences of generations before them. Would the quality of life be so dire that having kids would be a bad thing to do?

4. Do J Lo and Shakira ever age?

I forgot about the dire state of the planet and world politics when Jennifer Lopez and Shakira SLAYED at the Superbowl halftime show. I swear they age like fine wine.

5. What if the end isn’t near and I’m just overthinking?

Also, aren't my thoughts irrelevant? I can't reverse what's happening so I might as well try to forget about it… right?

6. What if the end IS near and everyone is under-thinking?

Everyday tasks seem irrelevant. Doing my laundry and getting A's in my classes won't matter if the world ceases to exist!

7. Why is everyone freaking out?

Exhibit A: My university is about to shut down because of coronavirus, professors are now changing their courses to be completely online.

8. Why is everyone NOT freaking out?

How are we going about our daily lives without overthinking-- we should be trying to make changes and fast.

9. Should I buy a face mask for the Coronavirus?

Apparently not, but it would make me feel better.

10. Is World War III going to start?

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.
