Reading is practically the best thing that one can do in life. Anytime life gets too mundane and boring we can pick up a book and experience a new adventure. Every book is somehow different from the last. However, with that great power comes the great responsibility of surviving the many struggles of being a book lover.

1. Having stacks of books around your house because you have ran out of space on the bookshelves.

Every time we buy a new book we have to added to one of the ever growing piles we have had to make.

2. Questioning friendships because they say, "I saw the movie, I don't need to read the book."

How did we even become friends with them in the first place?

3. Having to mourn because the author made your favorite character die.

We have all experienced this at least once in our live. It never gets any easier, just different.

4. Staying up all night to finish reading a masterpiece.

"Can't stop now, only 94 pages left."

5. Getting around to finally watching the film adaption to your favorite book, and point out every single difference between the two.

All we can do is be frustrated with the movie makers about this one.

6. There will never be a book that is long enough.

If some books never ended, I would be okay with that!

7. There is always a little sadness at the end of each book.

No matter how good the book was or whether it was a happy ending or not, we always have a pinch of sadness because the adventure is over.

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.
