READ THIS Before You Vote!

Are you voting for the right person?

READ THIS Before You Vote!
Chris Martin

Before you go out and cast your vote in this election I urge you to do one thing…really think about who you are voting for and why. A lot of people are about to decide who is going to be the most powerful person on the planet and it should not be based off of what party they identify with. You as a voter should be looking at the policies that they are going to implement and what that will mean for you and for the economy. You should not be voting for Trump just because he is a republican. You should be voting for Trump if you agree with him. The same applies to Hillary. You should be voting for her based on her agenda for the country, not because she isn’t Trump. Throw out what your parents have told you, throw out what you hear from your friends, and throw out what you hear from everyone around you. Really sit down and do your research on the controversial issues facing the candidates, such as, Benghazi, the sex charges facing trump, the email scandals, the trump university scandal, etc. Do not go blindly in to this election and vote based on peer pressure from your friends and family. Do not pour into the bias things you have heard on from FOX or CNBC. Get the facts about the issues without the bias strings attached. Just because Trump or Hillary says something confidently does not make it true.

The future of our country lays in YOUR hands. Are you going to make an irrational choice that you will have to live with or are you going to make a logical one that is not driven by propaganda? This decision is yours and yours alone.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
