A Letter To My Mom

Without you, I'd be nothing.

A Letter To My Mom
Briget Sarah

Mom,

The amount of love and effort that you've put into our family is unreal. You have put yourself last in every situation since my sisters and I ever existed. You're such an amazing woman. I hope to be half of the mom that you are one day.

You have been my number one protector and mentor since day one. You've always been there for me, helping me in any situation I've ever needed. You've been there to give me advice at any hour of the night.

You're there when I have a question ranging from how to cook something to making doctors appointments. Again, you haven't put yourself first in any situation involving your family since your family started, and that's such a selfless act. You're such a selfless person. You're a beautiful, generous, caring, and silly person that I'm so lucky to call my mom.

Watching you do what you love most, teaching, really proves what an amazing human being you are. You're patient with strangers, people who don't know you. You're kind, never yelling, and never letting anything get the best of you because you are a selfless human. Everything I've learned has come from you.

I know I'll keep growing and becoming the person I'm meant to be. With your lessons and knowledge you'll pass on to me, I know everything in life will be okay.

I know, one day, you'll be an amazing grandmother to my kids. I see how you are with your nieces or any other baby on the planet, and I admire your love for kids. You taught me so much about loving others and being sympathetic towards others. I know I'll teach my kids the same things. I look forward to seeing all of the memories we'll make in the upcoming years.

Seeing you happy is one of the best things I've seen. I hope this letter makes you happy. I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you and everything you do for me.

Xoxo,
Brig

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.
