Thanksgiving is one of my favorite seasons. I love spending time with my family and of course, eating amazing food. Here are 10 things that I am thankful for this Thanksgiving season:

1. Jesus

I am always thankful for Jesus' love and the sacrifice that He made for us.

2. Family 

I have the most amazing family on the planet. We have been through so much over the past few years and no matter what, they are always in my corner supporting me and lifting me up when I fall.

3. Food 

I am thankful for food every single day of my life because eating is one of my favorite hobbies.

4. My parents 

I love my parents more than anything in this whole entire world. Although one is no longer here on this Earth, I was still blessed with the most amazing parents. My dad taught me so much while he was alive and my mom has taught me even more since he passed. She has shown me what true courage and strength looks like and she is my hero.

5. The opportunity to attend college

Being in college has made me realize that not everyone has the opportunity to attend college and knowing that I can makes me feel humbled and blessed. Having a family that supports me and helps pay for me to be able to obtain a degree is very humbling and I have been blessed beyond measure.

6. My friends

College has blessed me with the most amazing friends any girl could ever hope for. I don't know where I would be without them.

7. My dog 

He annoys me to the ends of the Earth, but I don't know what I would do without his cuddles.

Enjoy this Thanksgiving season with your family and friends and be thankful for all of the things you are blessed to have in life.

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.
