I love taking vacation breaks just like anyone else probably does. I normally travel on vacation in the summer months with my family because it is a time when everyone is off from school or work, and there are many destinations to discover. However, a dream of mine is to take a winter vacation one year, and here is why!

1. Explore holiday traditions elsewhere

You can learn so much about a new culture by visiting during the holiday season! Simply by vacationing this time of year, you and your family may appreciate new holiday traditions and incorporate them into your holiday celebrations!

2. It is not cold everywhere

You can escape the bitter cold by vacationing somewhere warm! Break out the swimwear and sunglasses, and have a great time!

3. Cheaper travel

It is cheaper to travel during the holidays, specifically, on Christmas Day when plane ticket prices spike down. Perhaps, you will miss the exact day of Christmas, but you can have your celebration at your paradise and even celebrate on their time zone!

4. Less hype at the location

During the summer, hotels are packed, and resorts are booked! Yes, I believe it is relaxing to take a vacation whenever possible, but it is always a nuisance to be surrounded by so many other tourists when you are on vacation. During the winter holidays, you will be able to enjoy the destination with less people in the area.

5. Have fun!

Most of all, it is important to take a vacation to decompress and enjoy yourself, because everyone needs a rest here and there!

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.
