Why Summer Is The Best Time of Year
Huffington Post

Usually, people have their own favorite season or favorite times of the year because that time has features that interest or help them get away from their normal, busy lives. A lot of people often say they either favor warmer or colder weather or somewhere in between as opposed to choosing either extreme. Some of these factors make people favor one season or month over the others. In this case, my own personal favorite season is summer because of the warm weather and the longs break from school. Some popular months that are favorites among many are October or December because of their respective holidays.

With my own experience and comparison of the many months during the year, I have come up with some reasons why the summer months are one of the best times out of the year. The summer months usually run from two major holidays; Memorial Day to Labor Day, or late May to early September. It is usually filled with many more outdoor activities and therefore people become more active because of the warmer weather. Some of my own favorites for the summer include bike riding and skateboarding, which are mainly done in the summer because of the ability to do so with more free time and longer hours during the day.

Another reason why I think the summer months are the best time to enjoy activities is because it provides an opportunity to relax from anything that could be taxing, such as a job or school. The amount of time that is needed during the regular year is usually more demanding and doesn’t leave many people with a proper amount of time to get other recreational things done. Time constraints during the summer months still exist, but with proper planning, time can be accommodated to someone’s needs. This is one of the main factors unto which I believe summer to be more free and allowing compared to other months of the year.

The last factor that goes into why I think that the summer months are the best months are because there is a lot more time to spend outside with warmer weather. I enjoy the outdoors because experiencing nature and having the chance to go swimming or hiking is very appealing to me. Other months have different weather which may prevent some of these activities, especially in the northern parts of the United States. Weather is one of the bigger factors that go into considering some of the reasons why summer is the best time of year, but these are my reasons for considering it as my favorite season.

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.
