Redheads are very unique. Less than 2 percent of the world population has red hair, so I can understand how it can be fascinating. However, here are 10 things you should absolutely not say to someone with these rare red locks.

1. Not say anything, just reaching out and touching my hair

Don’t touch. Would you reach out and touch someones baby without asking? If it's curly, you just made it frizzy and I spent a lot of time trying to ensure that wouldn't happen today.

2. " Oh my gosh is it real??"

...nope, not at all.

3. "What box did you use?"

I understand the curiosity, however, you definitely can't get this color out of the box.

4. (On kick a ginger day) "May I kick you?"

May I punch you? Don’t even think about it.

5. "Do you have a soul?"

I'm still human, people, red hair doesn’t make me an alien.

6. "Who in your family had red hair?"

Does it matter? And even if they did, they might not now.

7. "Were you ever Ariel for Halloween?"

Duh, that would have been a missed opportunity.

8. "You look just like Brave."

Her name is Merida, and yes, I know.

9. "Did you ever hate your hair as a child?"

Maybe I did, maybe I didn’t, but now I'm thinking about it. Thanks for that.

10. Don’t you wish you could dye your hair?

Sometimes, but I know the typical comment "It will never go back to the same color". If I had a dollar for every time someone said that to me, I would be a billionaire. I'll dye it when it turns white.

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.
