Dear sleeping beauty,

When you wake up what is your experience? Is it something like hearing the beautiful noise of birds chirping, the wind blowing, or knowing that today is the day that you're ALIVE?

You're up and moving, you can breath,and you can do things. Are you aware? Are you being appreciative of the moment? Some people wake up without acknowledging the fact that they can even hear those birds chirping. Or maybe they've overlooked the bright reflection that the sun is sharing upon their window.

People take advantage of the natural and supernatural gifts placed upon their lives each and everyday. Watching the cars flow through the streets, yet still they’re not aware. Because instead of being amazed with how far mankind has came with technology, it’s the negative disadvantages that catch the eye.These people are not truly “woke”. So I say to you, if you're one of these sleeping beauties who have been taking the Earth's gifts for granted, change your ways. Do something for our planet, and make an effort everyday to leave your mark!

“Some people feel the rain. Others just get wet”.

A touch of philosophy from Aryonne Genae’Link:“Challenges will arise, but it’s up to you to overcome them. Look at the bright side at least you have challenges to face, some people are dead…”

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
