Even if you're not a dog person, I think you will come to realize how incredible these animals are. Here are 15 reasons why dogs are incredibly beautiful animals.

1. Dogs are so lovable and will love you back unconditionally. All it takes is your presence for them to light up and dance around the room.

2. Dogs may not understand exactly what you're saying, but they're always willing to listen.

3. Owning a dog or even just interacting with one is proven to reduce stress. Imagine having your own personal stress reliever!

4. Dogs also form a bond with their human like no other.

5. Doggies are so pure. So happy. Much joy. How could you not appreciate their enthusiasm for life?

6. Dogs have the funniest expressions! Unamused, ecstatic, sad (the classic puppy dog eyes), goofy.

7. Doggos are just good company, hands down. Go play fetch, go for a run, or just settle down and watch a movie together.

8. Dogs do their best to protect you fiercely, both from intruders and mental terrors.

9. Dogs give you a sense of purpose. Your dog depends on you and loves you. This is definitely a responsibility, but it is so worth it.

10. These creatures are physically beautiful! Their eyes and coats have so much character, and these are just a couple of their many features.

11. You learn so much from them. Dogs teach you to appreciate the little things and to live a simpler but more fulfilling life. They're wise and become wiser with age, let's admit it.

12. Dogs' loyalty remains undefeated.

13. Dogs are great cuddlers.

14. Dogs bring people closer together.

15. Not only are dogs beautiful in an awe-inspiring way, but they are so cute and precious!

They don't call dogs man's best friend for no reason.

We are so lucky to have dogs and, honestly, we don't even deserve them. Treat yours the very best you possibly can and have a blessed day.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

April Ludgate

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
