Why?

Why is it when we fall all we feel is pain?

Why?

Why is it the words we say all end up in vein?

Why?

Why is it children are brought the world, hand-picked a life and force fed a dream?

Why?

Why are they forced to live and grow and look up to parents that don’t have the title husband and wife?

Why?

Why is the title mom and dad given, but not earned?

Why?

Why can people spit out kids left and right with no thought of having a family, without a concern?

Why?

Why are children raised to be what they see?

Have you not heard the apple doesn’t fall to far from the tree?

When will people, adults, children, man, woman, human kind-

Raise a world of stability and pride?

When will we get rid of the everyday empty promises and wishes that get pushed to the side?

How can we fix this and make people understand?

Understand how to be a woman, and what it means to be a man.

One action

One truth

A better you can lead to a better new

You can be the proof

When we fall we feel pain

That’s because what brings us down gives us knowledge

To strive for a better life

And in return a brighter future is what we gain

What we say just can’t be heard

Instead of the squeak of a mouse we need to roar

Children will take your advice, find a purpose and from there soar

Out on their own, looking up to the woman who could actually be a mom

Taking after a father, who for once, is the prime example of a man

Although the role models are not always what they should be

Examples are still set

They can learn and look at mom and dad and strive for the relationship that they never had

Mistakes made can only teach

Mom and dad are only names and sometimes they are out of reach

Although always close to the heart, they can show you the perfect life you need to start

They do wrong, we do right

The way we are raised does not have to be the way we live our life

The lesson of life is to forget and forgive

Sometimes the apple can fall far

To grow and succeed regardless of the depths in which live planted the seeds

To show who we could really be, who we really are

Don’t let life’s hardships and pain get down

Behind every bad joke is just a clown

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.
