Some Times You Need To Go Home

It's Okay To Go Home

Some Times You Need To Go Home
Morgan Leigh

Sometimes you Just need to go home.

You need home sometimes and there is nothing wrong with that. It is okay to go home every once in a while. I have some friends that think since we are in college now it's not okay to go home. I know we're supposed to be "adults" now, but come on! You can go home for a weekend every once in a while, it's okay I promise.

I go home probably more than I should, but to be honest I don't think it's an absolute bad thing. I get to see my family and spend time with them. Even if it's just for a few hours I feel so much better getting to talk to my granny and momma. Usually I can get a home cooked meal while I'm home too which is always a bonus! Let's be honest, school food isn't the best, just smelling the home cooked food is a blessing in itself!

I absolutely love seeing my fur baby's face when I walk through the door of my house; she gets so excited when I finally get home. As soon as I step in the door, I'm practically knocked down by my dog Bella. She loves when I come home, she just prances around the living room and almost never leaves my side. Then as soon as I sit down she's right on top of me, literally on top of me.

I was always the one that wanted to graduate high school and never come back to my hometown, but home is home. When I'm at school for a while and I finally get back, I realize how much I love my hometown. Nothing can ever beat the feeling of coming back. I know we're in college now and we are trying to "adult" the best we can, but please relax and know that going home isn't a bad thing. Home is going home. You get to sleep in your own bed, see and love your pets, and most of the time you can probably get your mom to do some of your laundry for you! Go home, love on your parents and your fur babies, and sleep in your own bed.

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.
