The Sky

The sky is one of the coolest things out there. Don't argue me on this.

The Sky
Kelsey Brownlee

With all of the negativity going on pretty much on any media site you visit, I thought you may need some happiness. So I decided to not talk about something super serious or inspirational this week and talk about the sky and why I love it.

Why do I love the sky so much? There's just something about it that amazes me. Let me tell you, I could sit outside and look at the sky for hours upon hours. Why though? Let's break it down.

First off, simply the color of it. The sky can be literally any color you can think of. Grey. You ever seen the sky when it's snowing? Orange. Go outside and look at that sunset tonight. Blue. Obviously this ones a given. I mean, c'mon now. Green. If you've never been outside after a big storm, I advise you start doing so. Purple, pink blue, yellow- needless to say, the sky can range from a big hunk of cotton candy to a yummy bowl of sherbet.

Second, the concept of it. Have you ever really stopped and thought about how we even get to view the sky on a day to day basis? When looking up at the sky, we are looking at a small glimpse of space. Isn't that awesome? As humans, we are tiny compared to Earth which is even more tiny compared to everything surrounding it. People across the world are looking at the same sky we are.

Tres, the accessories. Stars, clouds, the sun, the moon- these are small little accessories that make looking up at the sky all the worth while. I mean, sure- looking up at just colors would be awesome too, but how do you think they got there? The pretty grey sky- came from clouds. The golden orange- that came from an awesome sunset. If we didn't have these accessories in the sky, would there really even be anything to look at other than just black? Even the stars- they're so small from our POV, but have you ever tried counting how many there are? You can't. There's so many which is so amazing.

All in all, the sky is a pretty cool thing to look at. God sure did a pretty dang good job when he created all of this stuff.

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.
