Some Good News For Your Post-Election Blues
koolwallpapers.com

I don't care where your loyalties lie, this election season was brutal, and the after effects of this election has left most of the country emotionally and physically exhausted. From the countless scandals, the claims to sexual assault, and for the love of all every god that has, does and will exist if I hear the word e-mail one more time....

Regardless, can we all just come to the consensus that this election just sucked? Neither side really supported their candidate and it became a matter of "voting your conscience" - whatever that may mean to you.

I'm not trying to change any opinions. No amount of arguing and yelling will. The only thing we can do is agree on some common ground - which I will present to you in the most fun way possible.

Let's try and stay positive!

And hundreds of people waited hours to put those on Susan B. Anthony's gravestone thanking her for her fight for women's suffrage


And you know what? While we're at it, all baby animals are still cute


And the amount of women of color in senate quadrupled

The Griswolds (in conjunction with The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon) released their album two days early on SoundCloud

And all this Griswolds talk is reminding me of Christmas... which is pretty soon


Which means Victoria's Secret already released their Christmas-themed panties


And you know what? Hanukkah is even sooner than Christmas

Stefan makes it seem like the Menorah won't be the only thing that's lit.


And Thanksgiving is even sooner

And is there, like, anything some pumpkin pie can't fix?

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.

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.
