Winter's Top 20 Best Qualities
Tami - Justice42

I have a very unpopular opinion; winter time is way better than the summer time.

I can hear you saying now, "In the summer the sun is out and it's warm. You can go swimming!"

No argument for summer will sway my opinion.

Here's why winter is the superior season.

1. Blanket Burritos.

It is literally the best thing to wrap up in a blanket and hibernate all day.

2. It's easier to put clothes on than to take clothes off.

What are you going to do once you're down to the bare minimum? Take your skin off?

3. The snow is so pretty when it falls.

It's better than stepping outside and it is unbearably humid out, feeling like a fish out of water.

4. The clothing is more fashionable.

Three fourths of my closet are clothes only wearable at 60 degrees or below.

5. You have an excuse to stay inside all day.

Don't want to go out? Best excuse is that it's too cold.

6. Playing in the snow!

Sledding, snowball fights, snowmen.

7. NO BUGS

'Nuf said.

8. Food just is so much more enjoyable.

We like our food hot, so it's so satisfying when it's a chilly day. Soup is the best ever.

9. No yard work.

Everything is either dormant or frozen, so no need to mow the lawn, water plants or pick weeds.

10. The best holidays are during this season.

Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, Ramadan, Kwanzaa and New Years!

11. Storms are not as scary.

No crash, bang, boom sounds.

12. Heated seats.

The best invention in modern cars to make your tush warm.

13. Snow days!

Only if you're lucky enough to be attending a school that grants them or your work place. If not, hey,"sick" days or vacation days can come in handy, create your own!

14. The paw prints in the freshly fallen snow.

Some of them are the biggest "nope" looking thing ever.

JUST LOOK HOW CUTE IT IS.

15. So many sales for the gift giving holidays.

You can get yourself some great things at great prices! Don't forget to get something for others!

16. Sleeping all the time is acceptable.

The sun rises later and sets earlier. More darkness equals more sleeping time.

17. Gotta eat to keep warm.

No need to diet, your body needs the calories to keep up on keeping warm!

18. FOOTBALL!!!!

Need I say more? Yes, it's more of a fall sport, but there still is football all winter long.

19. Cleaning.

Yeah, cleaning sucks, but being stuck inside gives you a great reason to go though things!

20. Relationship season.

Relationships are always seem to be better in the winter. Not just romantic ones, but friendships too!

And as of right now in the middle of July with heat indexes in the hundreds, I am really missing winter.

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.
