An Open Letter To The Girl My Little Brother Will Marry
Megan Endres

To the very lucky girl my brother will fall in love with (one day),

He is one-of-a-kind, one of the best kind, actually. The kind of person that reminds you of how much you matter just by being around him. He is funny, fiercely loyal, strong, and loving. And you are the lucky one he has chosen.

He will work hard for you, wipe your tears, pick you up when you fall and steady you when you stumble. He will comfort you in your fears and stand beside you as you overcome them. He will protect you and never cease to fight for you. He will hold your hands through every trial that you will come to face in this life as he walks through them with you, fearlessly.

You are now a part of his loving heart; his beautiful, kind heart. The precious heart that he fights to keep hidden, but instead it shines with such an immense amount of passion, in the way that only his spirit can. A heart with pure intentions and unconditional love. A heart that is not without flaw, but still beautiful in its imperfections. A heart that has grieved and grown through loss. A heart that has been broken and mended. A heart that has so much passion for the things and the people that he loves. A heart that always choose others. A heart that will ache with you in your time of grief and rejoice with you in your time of triumph. A heart filled with compassion. A heart that loves to teach you about the things that put the sparkle in his eyes and longs to learn about the things that put the sparkle in your own eyes. A precious heart that will support your every endeavor. You are now a piece of his joyful heart that will love you, trust it.

You are on his team. His team that rejoices in his triumphs and builds him up through his failures. His team who notices that sparkle in his eye when he talks about the things he loves. His team -- the people who have been lucky enough to truly know him, the ones who know how much he longs to see others succeed, how much he loves adventure, how he wants to share in his happiness with the ones around him, how sometimes he just needs you to listen to him and not say anything, how he loves wholly and unconditionally -- the ones he loves and the ones who love him. We love him, we cheer for him, we comfort him, and we push him to be better. You are now a part of that team, we will do the same for you.

He is smart, stubborn, kind, frustrating, patient, joyful, talented, understanding, accepting, and brave. And he has chosen you. Welcome to the team.

All the love,

His Biggest Fan

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.
