Often times in times of trouble, we lean on our best friends to get us through the rough waters. Whether we need a hearty dose of laughter or the opportunity to open up the dams and just cry out everything, they'll always be there. Like wedding vows state "In sickness and in health", friendship vows silently do too. Here are 8 reasons why your best friend completes you and understands you when no one else can!

1.) You Balance Each Other Out

They're always your shoulder to cry on- whether those tears be of joy, anger, frustration, or sadness. They'll always be the one to hold it together when you can't or finish your fries when you're full

2.) Boy Troubles Are No Trouble At All

You don't have to wallow in your self-pity alone because they'll always be there with a gallon of ice cream and a baseball bat

3.) Double the Trouble

You'll probably never be arrested alone because you two always do stupid stuff TOGETHER... And the rare case that you did this on your own? You'll have someone to bail you out or put #FreeMyHomie on all their social media

4.) Any Situation Can Be Made Funny

Whether it be falling in mud during a day with them and the family and having to go to Walmart for new pants or simple days where you just did something stupid, you'll always have those memories to laugh hysterically over.


5.) The look...

There are so many "looks" and you know exactly which one is which. Even if your "there's a really hot guy standing behind you slightly to the right" look is similar to your "please get me out of here before I die" look, your best friend will always know the difference.

6.) Sharing is Caring

You two share everything from clothes to shoes to makeup to food and everything in between so clearly it's love!

7.) Boyfriend? Nope Bestfriend

You guys go on dates and share hoodies and talk on the phone all night and can't go a second without missing each other when you're away so really... There aren't many differences.

8.) Random Acts of Craziness

The term "Do it for the vine" was put to shame by "Do it for the snapchat". Between twerking in Target's parking lot or making up stupid songs about serving ginger ale, everything is an adventure and every second is another laugh and crazy memory made.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
