In This Article:

Life can get busy, but creating memories while you can is very important.

1. You will always have an excuse not to.

Life happens, but the thing is, life will always happen. Learning to live life in the now and make memories while you can is very important.

2. There are ways to cut costs of living to save up for a trip.

You can cut out your morning Starbucks and make coffee at home, keep a jar of spare change, get some groceries at Walmart, and maybe not splurge for those new Louboutin's.

3. You don't always have to take a huge, long trip.

You can just take a little road trip to the next town over and stay over for a couple of nights, you don't have to fly to Thailand for a month.

4. Traveling solo is a very important life event.

Traveling by yourself can be cheaper, quicker, and can teach you independence and self-confidence.

5. Experience is the best way to fight ignorance.

Traveling exposes you to new cultures and experiences, allowing you to combat ignorance.

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.
