1. You can always be more comfortable in hugs

While being a tall person is great, hugs are way better as a short person. You feel protected and honestly safer.

2. You are perfect for pictures

Up front is where you are. You always have a smile in front of everyone because you are a short little person, might as well embrace it and smile!

3. Leg room is super easy to find

Any car, any place, and anywhere. Leg room will never be problem.

4. You can take a nap anywhere

If it be in the backseat of a car or a child's twin size bed, you will always be comfortable and have just enough room.

5. You never get hit by branches

Don't ever worry about having to bend down and worry about getting hit by a branch. It rarely happens.

6. You can easily go through a crowd

Honestly you won't ever need to shove. Just walk on and trust me, you will not be stopped.

7. You can shop in the children's section

Personally, I am only 5 feet 1 inch and weigh 110 pounds, I still sometimes shop at a kids. It's comfy and totally cheaper!

8. Heels can be any size

You NEVER have to worry about being too tall. You will never be too tall!

9. Passing as a child? No problem.

Not only can you shop at a children's section. You can also eat at restaurants a child.

10. You personality is HUGE!

Even though you are short, you will most likely be wild inside. You will be loud and there will be so much power in the way you do anything really.

Being short is rough. Every person will put their arm on you and will pick you up when you give them a hug. It happens, but you will always be proud of your height and should embrace it!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.
