The Juice Is Back!

O.J. Simpson, the man, the legend, and the ex -convict? O.J. has been released from prison and guess what, it wasn’t for murder.

He was sentenced to jail back in 2007 for a robbery, he claims he was trying to take back his memorabilia. Because of this incident,O.J. was sentenced to a total of 35 years in jail for armed robbery.

This was crazy? This was the man who got off for alleged murder.

First thing first, O.J. should have been acting like a model citizen after this Murder trial he got of off.

Secondly, who in the world gets sentenced 35 years for a robbery and kidnapping, people get less time for premeditated murder.

I have mixed feelings on this matter. If we are going to talk about the robbery and that jail sentences, well it was unfair. Let’s give justice where it’s due.

The man, was I suppose you say down on his luck. After being acquitted of the murders of his ex-wife and her boyfriend, O.J. was shunned from everything he knew. This causes him to down spiral.

He started acting out, especially after finding out, he no longer had to be someone's hero or idol. This also led to him having no money, friends, or sense of direction, thus leading to this robbery gone bad.

I find it kind of funny that O.J. was sentenced to prison for this armed robbery on the same day his verdict was announced for the murder trial, for the same amount of time he would have done for the murders.

O.J. first parole hearing would be July 2017. Surprise, he was able to leave.

Flash forward to October 2017 and O.J. is once again a free man to do as he pleases. Let’s get real, don’t you think he will end right but up in jail again.

He has once again, no family, no friends, no money. What’s a man suppose to do? I guess he’ll do what all rich retired sports players to… whatever that is.

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.
