What Makes Me An Onion

These are the layers people don't normally see in me.

As Shrek gave Donkey the lesson about onions and ogres, "No. Layers. Onions have layers. Ogres have layers. Onions have layers. You get it? We both have layers.", I decided I'd write about what makes me an onion. As much as people dislike onions, I couldn't help but write about them because I love this analogy so much. Everyone has their own unique layers, so here are mine.

1. I'm the biggest nerd.

Whether it be romantic novels, Star Wars movies, or Harry Potter, you can count me in! I never truly show this layer of me because it's one of my guilty pleasures. There's nothing I love more than spending a rainy day, in bed, curled up, watching one of these series, or reading endless books about sappy love stories.

2. I have the biggest heart.

I've always had a big heart when it comes to everyone and anyone. I'm always trying to get involved in as much as I possibly can that will help or benefit others. If I'm not thinking of other's before I'm thinking of myself I feel guilty. There's nothing I love more than being able to make others smile, and laugh. It's genuinely the most incredible feeling. Someone could slap me in the face, and I would simply say thank you.

3. Art is my everything.

Many people take their frustration out in the form of working out, or playing a sport. For me, it's art. Whether I'm painting, drawing or taking pictures, I'm in my happy place. Being able to relax my mind and focus on the paper and the lines is my zen.

4. I love puppies more than I love myself.

This is not an over exaggeration. I would and will do anything for puppies. I mean who wouldn't? They give the best kisses and the best snuggles. Plus they don't give you attitude or make snarky comments. In all honestly I would sell my organs for puppies. I appreciate their fluff more than anything.

5. I'm passionate about everything and anything.

Once I get involved with something whether it be a relationship, a hobby, an activity, or a job, I give my all and hold nothing back. I get attached to them easily, which can be a good and bad quality, depending on how you look at it. Why bother getting involved with anything if you are only going to half ass it?

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.
