There are many movies available on Netflix right now. From stand up to horror, it''s obvious that the genres on Netflix are almost endless. Out of all of these movies, there is one that everyone needs to see. Here is a list of reasons why you need to watch "The Fundamentals of Caring" on Netflix right now!

1. It's funny

"Bite of the James! Hm? Isn't that what they say in your country? Little bite of the James shall we!"

"The Fundamentals of Caring" is one of the funniest movies I have seen in a very long time. Trevor (Craig Roberts), the wise cracking British teen with cerebral palsy, and Ben (Paul Rudd), the smart ass caregiver, are a lovable duo that had me cracking up throughout the movie. At first, I was uncomfortable with the both of them making jokes about Trevor's condition, but I soon began to appreciate the dark humor.

2. It encourages adventure

Dot: Trev, what would you do in that situation?

Trevor: Oh, I'd most likely shit myself.

Ben: And I most likely would have to clean it up.

For fun, Trevor will sit in front of the TV all day watching a travel TV show, marking down all the places he wants to visit, even though he knows that if he leaves his house and goes off schedule it could be the end of him. Ben decides he will bring Trevor to all these places even if that means risking Trevor's life. The movie takes you on this incredible road trip with the two of them to the world's largest cow and hole, all the while picking up random people at a diner and on the side of the road.

3. Peaches

One word says it all! In my opinion, Peaches (Megan Ferguson) is the most adorable character in the whole movie! We meet Peaches as she is stranded on the side of the road on her way to visit her mom before she gives birth. Once you get past her mysterious stare, you will come to love her awkwardness, and accept that she's just a sweetheart that cares about everyone.

4. Who doesn't love Selina Gomez and Pauot only that but, Dot is actually kind of a bad ass in the movie. She runs away from her dad at home and for some reason thinks it's okay to go on a road trip with two random guys. Paul Rudd, behind all the jokes he makes, sadly has a tragic back story in this film giving you more respect for his character.

5. This ones a tear jerker

Like I said in my last reason, Paul Rudd's character, Ben, has a tragic back story in the film leaving you in tears when the full story is finally revealed. Not only that but, the movie constantly reminds you about Trevor's condition and that any moment something could go terrible wrong. This movie is a reminder that life is short and that you should go out and live it without letting anything stop you, whether it be your dad, a broken down car, a wheel chair, or a rough past.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
