Last week, I was listening, watching and reading about the United States Senate and the Hearing on the nomination of Brett M. Kavanaugh, to be an Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court.

I was interested in this hearing because Judge Kavanaugh was already part of our government back in 1998 during the Bill Clinton impeachment. Before I begin I'd like to mention that not all progressives are Democrats and not all conservatives are Republicans.

What Happened?

Senator Kamala Harris of California, questions Judge Kavanaugh on many issues such as Abortion, Women's Rights and the thousands of documents not able to be opened to the public or questioned about. At the end of the hearings, herself and several others became tentative about the nomination of Judge Kavanaugh. Some were concerned about his allegiance to a political party more than to the constitution and the democracy that comes with it. Some even wanted to postpone the following hearings after day two of the hearings. Most Democrats are worried he will not help the citizens of this country but become a liability to the people. On the other hand, several Republicans like Senator Rob Portman of Ohio see him as a wonderful friend and a reasonable human. A person with moral values and a great example for the people. Both sides are heard and criticized by the people. One shows compassion and the other side questions the fact if Judge Kavanaugh is even the right man for the job. The whole hearing is about whether Judge Kavanaugh is suitable to be a Judge in the United States Supreme Court. Several progressives are not impressed and do not see any progression with Kavanaugh being a Judge in the United States Supreme Court - even some conservatives. Some like him because they may know him personally or he seems to know what he is doing in closed doors.

Personally, nothing was really answered in the hearings of Judge Kavanaugh but only time will tell.

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.
