13 Reasons Why Ron Swanson Is My Spirit Animal

"When people get too chummy with me I like to call them by the wrong name to let them know that I don't really care about them."

1. He refuses to go the doctor.

Like Ron, I pretty much have to be close to my death bed to even think about going to the doctor's office.

2. Eating healthy is not his thing.

Eating healthy seems like a great idea, until you actually have to do it.

3. He has no time for symbolism.

Why do people try to make everything flowery? Short and sweet is always the way to go.

4. He embraces his carnivorous ways:

Honestly, which one sounds better, rabbit food or a juicy steak? (Vegetarians and vegans need not respond).

5. He's not caught up in the "Star Wars" craze.

"Star Wars"? "Star Trek"? Not interested

6. He is not to be messed with.

Sometimes the big guns need to come out.

7. He's confident in his abilities.


This is the type of confidence we could all use more of.

8. His excitement (or lack thereof) for traveling abroad:

Why do people get excited over the same thing built in a different style and location? Plus, who would want to leave the great U.S. of A?

9. He does what he wants.

No one wants to be told what to do, especially by the government.

10. He acknowledges that some hairstyles just don't make sense.

After 19 years of being a girl, I still do not understand why people still get bangs only to spend months complaining about having to grow them back out.

11. We all know what the worst curse word in the English language is:

Honestly, there is almost nothing as bad as having to give up your hard-earned money.

12. He knows when history truly began.

Did anything that happened before July 4, 1776 really matter?

13. He knows how to have a good time.

Socialize? No. Stuff my face? No problem. I may even throw some Netflix in there somewhere.

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.
