10 Reasons Why I'm Thankful For My Big Sister
Johnna West

There is no one else like her. She can brighten my day with a simple phone call and can make me feel like I can conquer the world with a little advice. She has my back no matter the situation. I know that others will come and go but my sister will forever be there. She chooses to be that sister that every young girl dreams of having and I could not thank the Lord enough for blessing me with such a wonderful sister. She is my hero and if I can grow up to be half the person she is I will be completely satisfied.

1. She’s been there since day one.

She has been there through it all. She saw every milestone you took and every setback you struggled with. She knows anything and everything about you that you could possibly think of.

2. She doesn’t sugar coat anything.

She will tell you exactly how it is because she knows what is always in your best interest. After all, she is the one who has been there and done that so she’s only trying to protect you from making the same mistakes she did.

3. She gives the best advice.

I’ve never had someone give me better advice than my sister. She knows just what to say to make me feel like everything will be okay again and she always ends up being right.

4. She has a pretty killer wardrobe.

At one time you may have hated the fact that you got all of her hand me downs but now you love the moments when she asks if you want her clothes because shopping in her closet is your favorite place to shop.

5. She has some great stories on you.

She can tell the wild stories about you that you don’t even remember. She remembers every funny thing you said as a toddler and when you accidently slipped that dirty word you heard someone say.

6. She supports you.

She doesn’t care what career you choose or what college you go to as long as it makes you happy. She wants the best for you and is willing to help you in any and all ways to help you get there.

7. She holds your favorite memories.

You’ve laughed with her until you’ve cried because you both think the stupidest things are the funniest. She stayed up with you until 3:00 A.M. watching your favorite movies and talking about the latest down low on your hometown.

8. She is forgiving.

Most people can’t handle your sassy attitude or your undeniably bratty moments, but she loves you nevertheless. You made her so angry at times when you were younger but she always forgave you because she cares about you more than any other friend ever could.

9. She despises everyone you do.

Anyone who has done you wrong basically did just as wrong to her. If a boy broke your heart or you get in a fight with a friend she is always going to have your back no matter the situation.

10. She knows what it’s like to deal with your parents.

Whatever is going on with you and your parents she probably went through it first. She can be that little push that helps you get through it, and it’s always nice to have someone there who knows the struggle.

Big sister, you will never know how much you truly mean to me. I love you to the moon and back.

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.
