The Unlovable Finds Love

The most disappointing, yet adorable phone call ever to happen on television.

The Unlovable Finds Love
Desiree Hartstock

We have come to the end of yet another "Bachelor season." After 20 seasons spanning over 14 years, another young man has found ~the love of his life~. At least for now... There are few couples that actually have stayed together after the final rose. I really liked Ben Higgins, a 27-year-old software salesman from Denver, CO. He is the true all-American boy. A lover of baseball and 28 women, or at least two for sure. The 20th season of "The Bachelor" showed us raw emotion, honestly and of course DRAMA. Names such as Olivia, Leah, Lace and unfortunately a little bit surrounding Jubilee. Ben handled the drama in an honest and caring way. He listened to the many sides of each story and never raised his voice or placed blame on anyone. Ben never caused any drama, besides falling in love with two women at the same time...

For the first time in "Bachelor" history, "The Bachelor" told BOTH the bachelorettes he loved them. This created quite a pickle for the young bachelor. His own mother couldn't wrap her head around her son being in love with two women. We we on the edge of our seats about if he had chosen one until he was picking out a ring. I can't speak for everyone, but I was team Jojo once it got down to the top three. Jojo was the only one throughout the season to really listen to Ben and help him through tough times with other women! She didn't let her feelings get in the way of making Ben feel better. Remember when Ben announced that his close family friends had died and Olivia didn't care at all? Jojo cared, so did Jubilee.


The reason I didn't fall in love with Lauren like Ben did was because I don't think she's right for him. #boldstatement. Lauren is very quiet and reserved, not that that's bad. Ben is not quiet and reserved. He's the guy on the baseball team, he's the friendly neighbor from a small town where everyone knows each other. He's social, loud and confident. Jojo is loud, proud and southern! She was always tons of fun on group dates with a terrific attitude. I loved Jojo because she was selfless when she needed to be; she was fun and loved to live. Yes, her family was a little overwhelming and opinionated, but in the defense of Jojo, there weren't really any great hometown dates. Usually, the contestants confess their love as the Bachelor/Bachelorette gets into the black car. However, this season not a single bachelorette confessed their love in their hometowns.

I'm sure that Ben and Lauren will be very happy together, and I am very happy that he has found love and no longer considers himself unlovable. They are an adorable couple appearing on countless talk shows. I hope that everyone else on "The Bachelor" finds love as well.

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.
