14 Times Parks And Rec Accurately Portrayed Your Life

There's a little bit of Pawnee in us all.

1977
Parks and Rec
IndieWire

We all know that Parks and Recreation is one of the greatest shows ever to air on TV. As we watched every episode, we all found a piece of us in each character (even Jerry). From the moment we met the pit, to the time we saw it flourish into a beautiful park, we all had developed a little bit of Pawnee, Indiana in our hearts.

1. When someone asks you why you're so sensitive and you start crying, because you have a big heart and cry at everything.

2. But when you're past the point of being over-sensitive and are just irritated and people try to talk to you:

3. But sometimes you just have to cry, even if it's over the fact that you saw a cute puppy and might not ever see it again

4. And while you're crying you decide to eat a bunch of food because, well, I'll let Ron take this one:

(or any food, for that matter...)

5. When someone lectures you on how their new diet is great and how you should definitely try it:

6. When you want to go to a party but you have to get up at 6AM the next morning for work:

7. But at the same time you haven't had some fun in a while... so, you decide to go because you definitely deserve it.

8. When a cute guy you've been crushing on makes the first move:

9. But when he doesn't text or call you the next day, you decide life sucks

10. But then you remember the Meagle motto:

11. And so you put on your hottest outfit and strut your stuff. Because you're a strong independent woman who don't need no man

12. When someone asks you what you're going to do with your life:

13. But hey, no worries. Leslie figured it out, and you always have this option:

14. And at the end of it all, the only thing that's going to matter is the fact that you...

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
