Why Dogs Are Actually A Girl's Best Friend

You know, there's a special relationship that can be formed unlike other. That relationship is between a girl and her dog. Some people aren't lucky enough to have a dog come into their life and for some, a cat is the way to go. But for those girls out there that understand what I'm talking about, this is for you.

I have been blessed to many dogs in my life as I have grown older and at each age, my dog has held a different meaning in my life. There has never been a year that I haven't had a loving and wonderful dog by my side. There are a million reasons why dogs are amazing creatures but these are the most important.

1. You can tell them absolutely anything and they won't judge you.

Okay, so they may not have the ability to express their judgement but when you look into this loving eyes, they have a certain way of letting you know that no matter they will always love you and protect you. You can't say that about everyone. And when you're not looking for advice, but rather someone just to console you, your dog is there for you.

2. They will always love you, no matter what.

I mentioned this above, but it's too important not to mention again. It's rare to find someone who will stick by your side and follow you anywhere if they know everything about you. Of course family and those couple of friends who for life can fill this role, but not like a dog. You can't find a look that is that loving in just about anyone.

3. They're always down too cuddle - ALWAYS.

You know when you just that feeling like all you want to do is crawl into bed and cuddle? Well that's where your dog comes in. There will never come a time or place that your cuddle buddy isn't down for nap time or some snuggles. Whether your dog is big or small, the more cuddles, the better.

4. They will forever be your adventure buddy.

Any adventure, anywhere, they will be by your side. They will follow you wherever you go. That's one of the most amazing things about dogs. They are fearless and inspiring when it comes to exploration. They show you that you can go where no one has gone and can explore a place that looks forbidden. Because why not? Of course, this is just a metaphor, but it's true. You can uncover and discover things you never knew existed, and have some fun along the way.

5. You will always be protected with them by your side.

In return for their love and protection, all they ask is that you treat them with respect. If you can do that, they will protect you to the best of their ability and love you unconditionally. Your dog will always stay by your side.

6. Forget about boys - and diamonds- dogs are better.

There is no boy out there that could ever replace your best friend. Boys are great and yes, there will be one lucky guy out there who will cherish you. But until then, please don't waste too much time being heartbroken when there is a dog out there who wants to love you more than he ever could. They are amazing listeners and will make you feel better whenever you need a little uplifting.

Whoever said a girl's best friend was diamonds never owned a dog.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

11 Ways To Live The Best Life You Can

Life is full of twists and turns, but you have to keep going.

Life is all about twist and turns, sideways and which ways. Nothing is permanent, so we should take risks, and chase our dreams. We are taught at a young age many lessons that will follow us into adulthood. What we aren't taught is how to feel, and how we handle those emotions. We just have to figure them out ourselves, and that's not fun. In my 21 years of living, I have come to know that way too many people can't handle emotions, or the fact that not everyone is dead inside like them. When you're like me, and you have zero control over your emotions, it's hard to feel comfortable around people who aren't so in touch with themselves. As much as I would like to feel nothing at times, I've accepted who I am and the fact that I can cry over practically nothing. So, there are some things in life that you just have to do.
