Everyone needs a blunt friend in their friend circle. They kill the room with their witty punch lines but they also know how to cut to the chase when work needs done. They always tell you how it is when you don't necessarily want to hear it. But for the following reasons (and many more) you will forever be grateful for having a blunt friend like them in your friend circle.

1. They Tell It How It Is

Your blunt friend will tell you when you look awful or when you're acting like a moron. Even when it could be upsetting, you can always count on your blunt friend to tell it like it is.

2. They Are Insanely Funny

Blunt people are actually quite hilarious with their solid jokes they come up with. They are smart and witty people after-all, so you know you can always depend on them for a good laugh.

3. They Can Help You Get Your Life Together

When it feels like your life is collapsing down all around you, the last thing you really need is a friend who is going to assure you that you are doing just fine and sugar coating things that should not be sugar coated. You need a blunt friend like them who will tell you what you are doing wrong and how you can fix it.

4. They Dish It Out But They Can Take It

With your blunt friend, you don't have to tip toe around because they literally never get offended. They are great at dishing out insults and sarcasm but they are just as good at taking it right back. They actually will appreciate a well thought out wit and don't mind being the person at the receiving end of the joke.

5. They Never Lie To You

You don't have to worry about your blunt friend trying to deceive you or turning into an enemy. They have no interest in going behind your back, lying to you, or making up lies about you. They are honest with you all the way.

6. They Know How To Reign It Back In

Sometimes blunt friends will end up rubbing people the wrong way because of their sharp and witty honesty. They are smart enough to bring it back down when it is important, so they are totally capable of being nice. And they can get along with just about anyone.

7. They Are Brave To Say The Least

Blunt people do not care who likes them and who doesn't. They are not afraid of what anyone else thinks about them. They will say what they believe and they will not care who disagrees.

So all you really need in your life is someone who is brutally honest, willing to put up with some crap, and who has a good sense of humor and you will have the perfect blunt friend. It is also a bonus if you have a co-worker who is blunt because your shifts will go much faster. So do not be afraid to try to be friends with someone who is blunt, because trust me, you will not regret it.

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.
