As we approach the one-year anniversary of the record-breaking album, it is safe to say that no one is over "1989" yet. Between the surprise celebrity appearances on tour to Ryan Adams' full-album cover that was recently released, "Style," "Bad Blood" and "Wildest Dreams" still play just about every day for a lot of us. For the small portion of the world population that does not enjoy some aspect of the album, Taylor Swift is there. She is everywhere. She isn't going away, either.

I think she is someone who everyone needs to embrace in some way or another. If not her music, embrace her fashion sense. If not her fashion sense, embrace her kind soul. If not her kind soul, embrace her killer girl-power mantra.

Here are 15 reasons why Taylor Swift is someone we should all aspire to be:

1. She is unapologetically herself. She knows that she's not a good dancer, yet she dances anyway.

2. She brings her girlfriends instead of her boyfriend to award shows. Her super successful girlfriends, may I add.

3. Her music has changed, but she has.n't "Tim McGraw" and "Wish You Would" sound totally different, but the lyricism and the personality behind them are the same.

4. She truly appreciates those who appreciate her. She does everything she can for those who love her, whether she knows them well or not.

5. She considers her fans her friends. All of the amazing things she has done for her fans speak louder than her monetary value.

6. She always keeps her family (and her high school best friend, Abigail) by her side. The tours, the countless number-one singles, even the daily grind of being Taylor Swift has not changed the relationship she has with her from-day-ones.

7. She wrote a number-one hit about how the media portrays her. Repeat: number-one hit.

8. She bites her lip sometimes to be the bigger person. This GIF sums this one up just fine.

9. She takes the criticism and hate with a grain of salt. She proves that being successful without some hate is impossible. You just have to "shake it off."

10. She channels her heartbreak into (loads of) success. A strong woman builds a wall with the bricks thrown at her, right, Tay?

11. She is a real person. She was not always the Taylor Swift we know. She was someone before we knew her, and she is not afraid to talk about that person.

12. She evolved into a superstar right in front of our eyes. We watched her grown from the curly-haired girl with the acoustic guitar to the straight-bobbed woman decked out in red.

13. She stays classy even when she's not in the spotlight. I mean, have you ever seen pictures of her walking around NYC?

14. She has a goofy side, too. Something we should all have.

15. And, the older we get, the more we realize she was right about everything.

I bet it would be pretty hard to find another young, successful woman with as much insight and talent as Taylor Swift. She is a person all young women should aspire to be like.

I will listen to what she has to say any day.
