To My Unexpected Best Friend

A friend who became a best friend.

Dear my unexpected best friend,

The day that I met you, there was no way of knowing that you would later become my best friend. You made me laugh instantly and within those five minutes of talking, and I hoped that we would be friends in the future. We both were somewhat in the same friend group but I separately surrounded myself with the wrong people. As time went on we slowly spent more and more time together without realizing that we were becoming each other's person. We would meet up late nights and talk about our issues without being judged. As I lost friends and gained more you were always there to listen to me vent about the same situations for days.

Even though I'm sometimes sensitive and unpredictable, you always choose to see the best in me. Although we don't talk about how we feel all the time it's important that you know how much you've impacted my life on a positive level. In high school I was never able to find the right friend group and bounced around multiple times just to find a "best friend." Luckily, I did find a best friend in high school and funny enough she has the same name as you! While there were good friends in school there were toxic one's as well, and you constantly watch out for me and have my back when those situations occur.

You understand me unlike anyone I've ever been friends with and not seeing you during the summer will be so difficult. I know you're scared about what next year will hold, but I can promise you that I'll always be a part of your life. It doesn't matter if we are "best friends" or just "friends" next year. Just know that no matter what happens or wherever life takes you you'll always have a friend in me.

Love,

Your best friend

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.
