Life Lessons We Can Learn From Meghan Trainor Songs

Just Jared Jr.

Meghan Trainor, the singer who gained her popularity from her song "All About That Bass." The woman who called out her own video for it being photoshopped because she wanted to be natural. We could learn a few things from her. She sings catchy songs almost anyone can find themselves singing. But her songs are more than just catchy hits; they have a deeper meaning for anyone who wants to learn something. Here are a few lessons the wonderful Meghan Trainor can share with her lyrics.

All About That Bass

http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/meghantrainor/allab...

Lesson: Be proud of your curves.

"I know you think you're fat

But I'm here to tell you...

Every inch of you is perfect from the bottom to the top"

Today, society has an image in their head of what beauty is, and it seems to be a thin girl with perfect features. This idea of women is unrealistic, and gradually we are beginning to accept that women are different, and their beauty is different. Beauty does not just come in one size.

Me Too

Lesson: Love yourself, no matter what.

"I thank God every day

That I woke up feelin' this way

I can't help lovin' myself

And I don't need nobody else"

Self-confidence is something anyone can struggle with, but you should love everything about yourself. Even when you think your hair isn't soft, or your skin isn't clear enough, you are perfect just as you are. You should always love yourself and what you have.

NO

Lesson: You have the right to say no.

"All my ladies, listen upIf that boy ain't giving up

Lick your lips and swing your hips

Girl, all you gotta say is...

My name is 'No'

My sign is 'No'

My number is 'No'

You need to let it go

Need to let it go"

You never have to say yes to a man pestering you. Do not be afraid to say no to a man bothering you. Consent is crucial these days. You have your whole life to be tied down to someone, and when you are ready it will happen.

Like I'm Gonna Lose You (ft. John Legend)

Lesson: Love with no regrets.

"No, we're not promised tomorrow

So I'm gonna love you

Like I'm gonna lose you"

Nobody can ever know when something may happen to them or someone they love. Every day we should live our life to the fullest. You should never hold back your feelings and emotions. You have to make the most of every moment you spend with the people you love.

Listening to Meghan Trainor's catchy songs can benefit anyone of all ages, male or female. She teaches us about self-love and the importance of being who you are, and loving who you are. You are perfect just as you are, never forget that. Stay tuned for more hits from Meghan Trainor.

Things People Without A Typical 'Boy Name' or 'Girl Name' Know To Be True

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

583

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

Washington College

CSU

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

14 Things The Extremely Pale Are Tired Of Hearing

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

2320

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
