13 Reasons Why Your Dad Is Definitely The Best Human In Your Life

Dads do a lot more than we realize. When they aren't golfing or watching football, they are usually doing something for their wife or daughter.

They deserve endless love, so here are 13 reasons to love your dad each and every day.

1. He is your biggest fan

He supports you in school, sports, and anything else you decide to put your mind to. Dads who never missed a sporting event deserve to be recognized and loved.

2. He always listens

You know you can always call your dad to tell him good news, bad news, or just to talk about your day. He always listens and gives advice. Thank you, dad.

3. He is goofy

And you probably get that trait from him. No matter what he can always make you laugh.

4. He supports you in everything you do

One time, my dad sat through four shows of Into The Woods because I was Little Red. That is love and dedication to your daughter.

5. He tells it like it is

He tells you what you need to hear even if it isn't what you want to hear. This is called tough love, and it is finally appreciated after all those years of, "But dad!".

6. He protects you

My dad, at least, does everything in his power to make sure I'm safe. Whether that means chasing down bad guys or just calling to make sure I made it okay, he is always trying to protect me and I appreciate it more than he knows.

7. He is genuine

My dad is easily the most genuine guy out there. He has the biggest heart and is always wanting to help. I admire this so much!

8. He is hardworking

My dad makes goals and conquers them; nobody gets in his way. This has taught me so much in life! Whether is he training hard or working extra hours, he is doing it with a smile on his face.

9. He is a good coach

Plain and simple, my dad is a good coach. Whether at softball, golf, basketball, soccer, or ANYTHING he learns more about it to help me succeed.

10. He never lets you give up

My dad has learned a lot in his life and has taught me growing up to never quit and to never give up. Even when times get tough and you feel like it is your only choice, my dad has taught me to persevere and fight harder.

11. He cheers you up

One time, my dad used his day off work to come up to my college and see me because I was sick. He took me to Target to get some meds and also to lunch. We just hung out and had a mellow day, but i felt so much better hearing his stupid jokes and laughing.

12. He makes you laugh

Okay, maybe those stupid jokes aren't so stupid because they get me every time.

13. He was the guy who loved you first

And he will never stop! His love is unconditional.

Thank you, dad, for all that you do, I love you so much!

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.
