Dear Guy Best Friend,

Although we talk quite a bit, and hangout often, I know I don’t give you the recognition that you deserve. There are so many things that you do for me that you don’t have to, but yet you choose to anyway. I want you to know how truly grateful I am for you and how much I enjoy having you as a best friend.

So best friend- Thank You.

Thank you for the all of the random adventures. No matter if its 2 in the afternoon or 2 a.m. you're always up for little road trips, Walmart runs and ice cream. I know I can count on you to have my back to do some dumb things with.

Thank you for the laughs. When I’m with you, I know I’m guaranteed to have endless laughs. When I’m in a bad mood I know I can count on you to cheer me up, or at least try.

Thank you for being there through all of the ups and downs. You are there all hours of the night when I need someone to talk to and always give me your honest opinion. You’ve stuck through all of the girl drama, mood swings, and my indecisive decisions and I know that takes a lot.

Thank you for never judging me. You’ve seen me when I look homeless and still accept me as me. Even when I say or do something really embarrassing, you are still somehow proud to be my friend.

Thank you for being a constant wingman. Having you as a best friend can be tough when I see a cute guy out in public, but I know I can count on you for being the best wingman possible.

Thank you for always giving me a male perspective. When I don’t know what to say to a guy, how to dress, or just need a guy’s opinion on something, I know you’ll give me a brutally honest answer.

Thank you for always supporting me. With every decision I make, you are always right there next to me encouraging me. You want me to be successful and the best me that I can be.

Thank you for breaking the stereotype of “guys and girls can’t be best friends without liking each other”. Our friendship is one of my favorites and is one of the most genuine things in life. You are like a brother and we clearly act like it with all of our petty arguments.

Ultimately thank you for just being you. Without you, life would be such a quieter, sad place, and I’m beyond thankful for you. I know I can be a lot to handle and of course annoying, so thank you for putting up with me.

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.
