Maybe it's just me, but I think every man and woman should have at least one Saturday person in their life. The kind of person who pushes them to their limits of sanity, energy, and sometimes questionable decisions. And I'm not alluding to topics of the illegal nature... Mostly. The proper Saturday people are those who encourage you to rip off the soda machine and get two sodas instead of just one for the $1.50. Shoplifting from a store is a Friday person's thing. Hang out with these people, but don't stay too long. These are the kind of people who get you arrested and help you spend the night in a holding cell. Back to Saturday people though.

Saturday people are the kind who help you run away when you need a break. They are the people who help you realize what you do and don't want in your life so you can meet your Sunday person. Saturday people are a stepping stone. You have hopes and dreams you plan for Saturday, but they don't always work out. Saturday people can break your heart, but that happens. That's life. But I know for a fact, for every Saturday you meet, you'll definitely meet a Sunday person.

Sunday people are the kind of people that just make all the craziness swirling around this awesomely strange and horribly mad planet make sense. Sunday people allow you to be yourself. They help you look back and be so incredibly grateful for the shits and giggles that led you to where you stand at that point in time. Everything just seems easy. Peaceful. Sunday people help you mature and become a better person. They're the final place where everything comes to a close.

It doesn't matter who you are or what you do, your Saturday friend could show up at any point and help you make it to Sunday. Which in the end, is the goal.

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.
