5 Reasons Why Our Friends Are So Essential To Our Lives

Everyone has their own little pack of loyal friends that they belong to and constantly text, snapchat, and hang out with. Without our little support group of our best gals, we would quite possibly go insane. Here's some things that I'm sure you and your pack of friends will relate to:

1.) The Group Message

If you ever want to discover a girls deepest and darkest secrets, simply, find some way to get into her group message with her closest friends. Once inside the group message, you are discovering a whole new world of drama, gossip, fashion advice, screenshots and much much more. The group message is where the most happens because most of the time, we can't wait till the next day to tell our friends about our latest boy craze.

2.) Fashion Sense

If you're ever in a predicament about what you should wear the next day, just snap your gals a picture of your contending outfits. Trust me, it works miracles getting someone else's opinion. But make sure you're getting the opinion of someone who's going to be real with you about whether or not they like your shoes with that dress.

3.) Calling Each Other During A Crisis

Yes, we've all been here before. Whether you were the caller or the receiver, you still understand how essential this is to a friendship. It's good to have friends that will wake up when you know you call at 2am with your latest mistake. Although, the real friends are the ones that will call you when they know you're having a tough time with a situation. Those are the keepers.

4.) Knowing Each Other's Favorite Foods and Drinks

There's always that one person in the squad who comes through with the morning coffees or after school Sonic runs without you even asking. It gets even better when they don't expect anything in return. I hope, for your sake, that there is a person like this in your group because they are God's gift to you and also because who doesn't love some coffee after an all nighter of studying?

5.)Being There For Each Other

Being there for each other is probably the biggest one of them all. If you don't support and help out your girls in their time of need, then you need to step up your game, sister. Don't be the person who is constantly asking for advice on your issues but not helping the others out during their times of need. Being there and lifting each other up is a big factor in a strong group and a strong friendship.

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.
