Thank you for your business.

Sincerely, Your Friendly Neighborhood Towers

Dear drivers,

I drag another car as its wheels slowly turning behind me. You should know, this is not a pleasurable thing for me either. I don’t get any pleasure towing your cars. I simply get a monetary reward—from you—and that is what I get pleasure from. OK, so yes, it brings me joy taking your cars. Still I do hope you don’t take it personally but judging from the way you storm into my office in the morning, I know you did. I give you the facts of the situation. Your ass parked somewhere you weren’t supposed to, I found your car, I took it and now you have to pay $110 dollars to get your car back. Unless you wait to pick it up another day. Then I’ll probably charge you more to get it back. Again, don’t take this personally, it's just that my space is extremely valuable. I need all the space I have to get more suckers like you each night. It really is not my fault you still can’t seem to figure out where you can park. Maybe you thought you would be back to your car before I got to it, but the possibility that I would get to it before you must have crossed your mind at some point.

I rely on your carelessness to earn a living. I need you to mess up in order to provide for myself. On slower nights I am not going to lie, I get tempted to tow a car that may or may not have been in the wrong spot. Yes, I know you will argue with me but if there’s no proof…that’s fair game. But don’t be mad at me—I am only doing my job. If you really want to blame someone, blame the system! Don’t come yelling at me in the morning. Maybe look up some road rules and figure out where you’re allowed to park.

I am aware that most people hate me and that nobody wants to be towed but all I have to say to you is get your life together. But also thank you for not having your life together, really gives me something to do.

Sincerely,

Your Friendly Neighborhood Towers

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.
