Thank You Netflix

I'm not sure where I would be without you.

Thank You Netflix

Dear Netflix,

I really don’t know what I would do without you. You are there at all times of the day and night, from boredom to procrastination, to late night-binging sessions and complete TV show addictions. You know how to fill the void of having no social life and lack of friends, by giving multiple friendships through all of your numerous TV shows and movies.

You have never judged me for watching too much TV in one sitting. In fact, you continued to support me by encouraging me forward to the next episode. And I can’t thank you enough. The lack of sleep and no productivity was worth it, no matter what others say. I have no regrets.

Thank you for appealing to all of my TV needs with all of your thoughtful recommendations, especially when I finish a show. If I want to laugh, I know that you’ll suggest "The Office" or "Parks and Recreation." When I want to relive some childhood memories, you’re right there with Disney classics like "Tarzan" and "Mulan." If I want to have a good cry, then I know you’ll come up with something to make me sob. Everything is so perfectly organized in those categories you so helpfully provide that I never have any trouble whatsoever.

I also wanted to thank you so much for helping to re-boot TV shows by making your own, especially "Fuller House." That was corny, funny, and also kind of magical. And you know you’ve reeled people in with "Orange is the New Black." (You guys totally know what you’re doing. Kudos.) You’ve brought a lot of happiness and nostalgia to people all over who are fans of these kinds of shows and do them justice.

Thanks for releasing every single episode of classics like "Friends
and "That 70’s Show;" you have made people’s dreams come true. You’ve also assisted in showing younger generations the ways of those that came before them and how good TV really used to be. (If you wanted to add every episode of old Disney Channel shows, I can promise you that you will become a true American hero.) But those classic childhood movies like "The Sandlot" and "White Chicks?" Keep doing what you’re doing.

Another thing is thank you for the Netflix app; which is a necessity in today’s world. IT’s great that I can whip out my phone and continue to indulge in my current TV show obsession if I ever have some downtime when I’m out like, waiting in a doctor’s office. You’re there in between classes, on the road and whenever I don’t have my laptop. Also when I’m lazy and don’t feel like getting out my laptop. You’re a true friend.

But, most importantly, thank you for all the great shows that you have released and have opened my eyes (and many others) to new doors. You’ve helped bring people closer together by helping people catch up on shows so they can talk about them with their friends, family and co-workers. Without the convenience I don’t know if I would have watched half the shows that I have, or have even caught up on them, since we’re all busy with life.

So, Netflix thanks again for all that you provide and do for us TV show junkies. We literally could not survive without you.

Sincerely,

A dedicated Netflix watcher.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
