Seven Reasons Your Mom Is The Best Valentine
Pintrest

So much bitterness, aggression, and hate surrounds Valentine's Day. Would it be nice to share it with a girlfriend/boyfriend? Maybe. Would it be nice to have someone buy you a fancy dinner? Probably. However, you absolutely do not need a significant other to enjoy the holiday. It's about time this thought left everyone's minds. After all, its about love. And honestly, who loves you more than your mom?

1. She cooks you food.

Not just food either, but most likely the best you've ever had. Mom's cooking comes in all forms--from carb-overloaded dinners to breakfast in bed. Does it get more romantic?

2. She knows when you're upset.

You don't even have to tell her when something's on your mind or bothering you. It's a creepy, but incredible talent moms have. How many boyfriends can you do that for you?

3. She knows how to handle the aforementioned emotions.

Once you start letting it all out, she's there to comfort you in whatever way works the best. Often, this includes some of that superb cooking.

4. She doesn't care how unattractive you look.

One of the best things about moms is that they truly have seen you at your worst. They were there through all of your awkward, beginning-to-use-makeup stages. Your ugliness can't phase them.

5. She knows your favorite everything.

Name it--movie, song, meal, thing to do. How convenient is it to not have to tell someone what you like/how to do it right? Your mom is probably the one person that actually knows it all.

6. She gives the best gifts.

Ranging from creative to being exactly what you want, moms never disappoint with giving gifts. For whatever occasion or mood you're in, she gets it right every time. It can be as simple as a taco.

7. The love won't end on February 15th.

Unlike other relationships, this one won't end. Ever. So don't stress about Valentine's Day or "being alone" because you're far from it. Not only do you have a Valentine you've been overlooking this whole time, but she's the best one you could get.

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.
