Dear Ex Best Friend,

Thank you for everything.

Even though things have changed and time has drifted us apart, I still think about you often, all the time actually. I think about the times we shared, with our random adventures, or our movie nights. And I can't thank God enough for blessing me with memories like those.You still mean the world to me, whether you're still part of my world or not.

Checking Timehop every day sure is a killer. It reminds me of all the memories we made. I swear there's a different status every day mentioning your name, and it's weird that now we rarely talk. I see those statuses and I can instantly remember exactly what it's about and exactly what happened at that time. That's how vividly etched our friendship is in my mind.

You were my rock, my sister, and my best friend. You were the blonde to my brunette and the Rachel to my Monica. God put you in my life at the most unusual time, and you stuck around for a good 5 years. But after we started growing up, we grew up separately. We weren't the same people we were when we first met, and we realized that. We gave up on each other, and found new friends, and made new memories. It was kind of like a break up, only harder, because I lost my rock.

We found other friends, new best friends, went away to college, and started our new lives. We reconnected eventually, but things are never going to be the same. We're friends again, just not sisters the way we were before. We don't buy each other Christmas gifts, or birthday presents, or vacation together. We're just two people who used to spend every moment together and know every thing about each other.

But there's one thing I know, you were a blessing. I cannot express how thankful I am to have had a best friend like you. So thank you, for showing me how good it felt to have a friendship like ours and for the thousands of memories in my mind.You're always going to be a major part of my life, and I wouldn't trade that for anything.

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.
