We may not be together anymore, but I will always consider you my family.

Probably the most difficult thing to go through is losing someone in your life. However, when you go through a breakup you don't just lose the person you loved dearly, but you may lose people who were almost like a second family to you. Dating someone for three years is no walk in the park, but it makes it a little bit easier when the breakup isn't hostile and somewhat mutual. When you're with someone for that long, you always hold a little piece of them in your heart and will always love them to a certain extent. But, along with loving them forever, you also grow quite attached to their family.

My ex-boyfriends family always treated me like their own daughter, and for that I am so grateful. Thank you for always supporting me along with supporting your son as well. Although it has been about a year since I've spoken to you, I am so grateful for the experience to not only get to know your son, but become a part of your family as well. You managed to keep me in mind when attending every one of your family functions, but you also let your son attend all of my family functions as well. You always treated me like a daughter, and were genuinely concerned about what was going on in my life.

Along with treating me like a daughter, you loved me like one too. There aren't enough words to show my gratitude to you for all that you've done to me. The only thing I wish for your son and you is that you all are happy. I hope that he finds happiness and I am truly grateful for the fact that we are still friends. Even though my relationship with him may have not worked out, I am so glad that I got to meet you in the process. You are amazing people and I wish you all the best.

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.
