There is always that one person who says, "I never grew up watching kiddy movies." Then there is me who knows I'll continuously be watching kiddy movies for the rest of my life. Yes, I am one of those crazies who is currently protesting the removal of The Nightmare Before Christmas on Netflix this beautiful month of October! I mean really? How could they remove this is the month of halloween people! Okay, anyway, the importance of kid movies, here you go!

1. Everyone can watch them and everyone can enjoy them.

Kid movies are (usually) purposefully made to not only entertain kids, but parents too. When you're a kid, you love these silly movies, but as you get older you can appreciate the witty humor in it all. It's pretty clever one can sneak in random sex jokes without kids noticing. That in itself should be appreciated.

2. It's good to get out of this reality by watching some good old happy endings.

I mean most kids movies have that scene that make you cry, but in the end everything turns out okay! Which then you can carry into your life, you got fired and dumped? Guess what? At the end of your story everything turns out okay! It's pretty motivational.

3. It makes you smile.

I guarantee you there is at least one kids movie that you can watch and it will make you smile whether its from the cuteness or from the witty yet adorable humor.

4. They make that cold soul of yours cry.

I don't care who you are or the experiences you have acquired over the years, but if you didn't cry when Mufasa died in the Lion King and Simba was trying to nudge him "awake"...maybe this article doesn't apply to you because you clearly don't have any sort of a heart or soul.

5. There is so many life lessons in these kids movies too.

Like the amount of love your siblings stuff in there, and the amount of find the right "love" of your life. That is some deep stuff that may fly sky high over kids heads, but man...that stuff gets me teary eyed every time.

Kids movies are important, and if this article doesn't convince you of it, just go watch some. Please. Go now! Open yourself to the possibilities of kiddy movies and to the humor, life lessons, and tears they bring! Be free now! Remember what it's like to be a little kid!

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.
