To my hero,

You are a blessing to my life. Now, I know what you're thinking..."my sister is so embarrassing" or "why does she have to be such a weirdo" but cmon bro, you know you love me. Seriously, hold the sass and listen up because I'm about to get serious.

I'm not sure if you know this or not, but I look up to you more than I look up to anyone else in the world. I strive to be someone who is as caring and as generous as you and honestly, you're pretty awesome. I know we fight and disagree (A LOT) but just know that I love you and respect you.

As we've gotten older, we haven't been spending as much time together and we don't have the kind of relationship we did when we were growing up but don't worry, nothing has changed. I still look up to you, I still care about what you think, and I still strive to be as incredible as you. The only difference now is, I miss you.

We have gone through so much together, we've shared laughs, tears, fears, and everything in between. I will never forget all the memories we have shared together from running around outside pretending the ground was lava, to eating Cinnamon Rolls on Christmas morning after opening all our presents. So many of my favorite memories were with you.

There are so many little things that you have done for me throughout the years that you that you may not even remember, but they had a huge impact on me and I will never forget them. These little things showed me how much you really cared and showed me that you would do anything for me. You would stand up for me without really realizing you were and you always made sure I was ok if I seemed off.

I know you might read this and just think about how annoying your little sister is (I'm sorry for that), but I just had to tell you. If it weren't for you, I may not be where I am today. You always push me to do my best and support me in everything I do, even the stuff you make fun of me for. I always took your thoughts into account when we were growing up and to this day, your opinion has a major influence on my decisions.

So, after all that, thank you. Thank you for being the best big brother a girl could ask for. While we may not be the closest siblings could be, I know that you will always be there for me and protect me. I can't wait to see where this life takes you and I hope you are living your best life. I miss you, I can't wait to see you, and I love you.


See ya soon big brother,

Your little sister

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.
