It can help you get that much needed day of relaxation. 

When it is bright, sunny, and wonderful looking outside I feel bad and lazy for staying in all day. I feel like I need to be running errands, spending time with friends and family, anything but staying inside. When it is gloomy and raining its butt off it gives you the perfect chance to stay in and watch tv all day, listen to music, read, or just catch up on sleep. We all need a day of relaxation at some point and a rainy day is the best time to receive it.

You can finally do those inside chores you have been avoiding. 

Dishes are piling up, rooms are getting dirty, and your bathroom definitely needs some work. What better day to get those much-needed chores done than when you are stuck inside. I always love doing housework on gloomy days. It seems to make it more fun. Crank up the tunes, open up the blinds, and make use of the bad weather.

It can give you the chance to read a good book or write. 

Of course, you do not have to have rain to read or write but it just seems to make it easier for me sometimes. That might just be because I love the rain. I love to just sit by my window and watch the rain cover the world around. It always makes my creativity and imagination flow.

If you do go out you don't have to fight the crowds.

Most people won't go out in the rain unless they really have to. However, if you are one of those people who could care less it if is sunny or raining you can go about your errands with peace of not having an enormous crowd around you, most of the time.

You finally get to wear your cute rainboots and jackets.

I have these super cute rainboots that I absolutely love wearing, unfortunately, I can not wear them all the time. It would look a little stupid if I did. So when the rain comes you best believe my rainboots will be on.

It can help you get more work assignments done.

Even on rainy days, life must still go on. That means work and school assignments do not disappear and still apply. However even though it may not seem like it, the rain can actually make people work harder and faster.

It always seems to brighten my mood.

I do not know why but the rain can really brighten up my mood. I Just love feeling the cool wind blowing through my hair, seeing the big and gloomy clouds fill the sky, and watching the rush of feet and umbrellas hurry through the streets. I have been called weird by many for this but I know I can't be alone.

It's beneficial to the Earth (obviously).

Ran can sometimes be pretty inconvenient but it is also very important. Nothing on this planet can survive without water. It also provides the Earth with nutrients it can lose when it has not rained for a while.

It can actually provide you with more family and friend time. 

When there is nothing else to do but stay home, catching up with friends and family becomes much more doable. Life gets so busy that things, like watching a movie, having game night, or just sitting around and talking, can only be done on certain days, aka rainy days.

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.
