We all have those people that we just connect with naturally. You may be looking for love or trying to find people, but as Taylor Swift puts it, the best feeling is when you "wake up and find that what you're looking for has been here the whole time". These people are your best friends and these are the reasons why you are lucky to have them in your life:

1. They’re always ready to give you the thumbs up when you need it. When you’re self-conscious or nervous about something, you can always count on them to give you the best pep talk.


You believe "you'll kill it" because they said so.

2. They’ve seen you at your worst and you don’t even care because they love your craziness.


They'll even join you in the weirdness..life's too short to feel embarrassed.

3. You can sass each other without feeling guilty.


That's how you find humor in situations.

4. You might drive each other insane at times but that only brings you closer in the end.


One comment like this is usually followed by a million hugs and "I'm so sorry"'s.

5. When you are feeling down, they’ll be the first to give you a big hug and tell you everything will be okay.


When you're not touchy-feely, but you give your friends the best hugs anyway.

6. They’ll listen to you no matter what…even if what you’re saying is complete nonsense.


Hey, at least you're learning what's acceptable and what's not.

7.They’re “your lobster” so they’ll never leave your side.

Who wouldn't want to be someone's lobster?

8. You can vent to them whenever. They know everything about your life and are willing to join you on the emotional roller coaster.


When you just want to let out the feels.

9. They’ll be brutally honest with you even when you don't want to hear it because they want to protect you.


How could you say that?? Oh wait, its true.

10. You have so much in common. You connect on every level and they can easily make you smile.

Even if it means bringing you food!

11. You don't need words to communicate sometimes...they just know.


You know you're close when your look says it all.

12. Let’s face it, we all feel alone sometimes and you’ll feel comfortable complaining to them.


But in the process, you’ll realize you’re not alone at all because they are right there with you.

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.
