We All Need To Be A Bit More Like Chad

For once in our lives, let's just be honest.

We All Need To Be A Bit More Like Chad

Dear anyone who "hated" Chad,

I know what you're thinking, but there is no way that I'm the only person that was team Chad.

Chad Johnson was the realest thing that ever happened to the Bachelorette. How could you have hated someone who did nothing but tell the truth, and tried not to come off too eager?

Regardless of whether you admit it or not, SOME part of you must have liked Chad. Whether it was the fact that he has a little puppy, has served our country, or has one of the best physiques I've ever seen, there has to be SOME part of you that liked or respected Chad.

In a world where females constantly feel like they are being lied to and men lie to get in bed with girls and both lie about their feelings in their past, it seems almost impossible to find love when both parties make it so hard. So why is it that when someone comes along who gives us nothing but sheer honestly, we freak out and eliminate them off our favorite TV show?

Girls CONSTANTLY complain that guys are dishonest. Like I promise, it’s constant. So why is it that when a guy like Chad walks in and tells the truth about everything, everyone snaps on him?

Had everyone left him alone, the poor guy probably would’ve made it to the finals and we’d be looking at a future Jojo Johnson. Not only does the name sound perfect, but imagine their babies.

Aside from the fact that he was honest and truthful, he went on the show six months after his MOM, his BEST FRIEND DIED of cancer! Let’s all just hate him for this too!

I don’t think that enough people gave him credit for even going onto the show in the first place. After watching his elimination and creeping on his Instagram for possible background photos, I saw that he had posted a picture of he and his mom saying that this is the reason he went on the Bachelorette:

“Well other than the fact that I work all the time, for 7 years I watched my mother slowly die from cancer. Over the last 3 she got so much worse and I decided to spend all of my time that I wasn’t working, at her house taking care of her and generally spending time with her. She was all alone since her divorce from my father. My sister and I were all that she had. So I have not had a relationship in a very long time because I was busy trying to make sure my mother lived out her final years in comfort and surrounded by family. I still miss her everyday…. She was my best friend and person I told everything to.”

Regardless of how scary, volatile, and conceited he may be, Chad was real. So maybe he had one flaw, which so happened to be something that people dream of being able to do: stand up for themselves.

If being honest and standing up for yourself are not deemed admirable qualities, then I don’t know what is.

I think that we all need to find a little bit more of Chad in ourselves.

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.
