Listen, we all know that there are great things about every season. However, autumn is the best. You know it's true, and I know it's true. Some of the best times happen during this transition between seasons. It's not just about getting from summer to winter, but enjoying the journey in between.

Here are 12 reasons why fall is the best season.

1. Sweaters

Nothing is better than wrapping your body in a sweater twice your size and looking fashionable in any instance.

2. Don’t lie -- you know you love talking about those basic white girls with pumpkin spice lattes, yoga pants and Ugg boots.

3. Bonfires are here to stay.

It’s a great way to get together with friends and stay warm with those you hold closest to your heart.

4. It’s an excuse to snuggle with anyone and everyone.

If you’re a person who loves physical touch like I do, this is your time.

5. All your favorite original Halloween movies come on TV.

"Halloween Town," "Hocus Pocus," "Casper" and "Goosebumps," anyone?

6. Corn mazes are a must-do!

There's nothing more fun than getting lost when the sun goes down and ending the night sipping on hot apple cider with friends.

7. Pumpkin-flavored everything.

It's like the entire season in a cup. Embrace the cinnamon.

8. Football season.

If you're not an Ohio State fan, you're wrong. Can you say National Champs?

9. If you've never been to a haunted house, you should go.

It's an experience to see the three different types of people: those who pee themselves, those who think it's overrated, and those who don't say anything the whole time.

10. No bees, hornets, or anything able to sting you.

You can walk through the grass barefoot without fear!

11. Quiet times before the disorder and disorganization of the holidays.

This is a time to relax before stress hits you like a train.

12. The leaves changing and falling.

Even though summer may be gone, it will always come again. Take time to enjoy change.

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.
