Inspiration Boost

I have written many Facebook posts about you, tagged you in a lot of photos, sent you text after text, You have seen me at my worst and never left, you took me into your life as one of your own and never looked back. You have been in my life for about 5 years now but it feels like longer. You may not know this but without you, I would be an entirely different person. You have taught me to see the good in people, the positives in life, and most importantly the love in myself. You have dealt with a lot from me and somehow you are still here. You dried my tears as I cried, made me laugh so hard, made me smile till it hurt and hugged me until I was whole again. I tell you this all the time but it is important for you to know, that without you I would be lost. I would not be the person that I am today, I would not have gotten through anything that my life has thrown at me without you. You take care of me and that is one of the many reasons why I am so appreciative of you! You have honestly changed my life and you may not even know it. You are the person who cheers me up, who talks me up to others including myself, who has filled a giant hole in my life without even knowing it and who has honestly inspired me to be a better me. My parents, especially my mom, love you and are always asking about you and are concerned about you and your life. You changed me and don’t even know it. You made me believe in myself and opened my eyes to so many new opportunities in life that I never saw before. You are the only person I know who would jump over a chair to say hello or come running down a hallway. You are the person who is always a call or a text away. I always know you are there. You have been by my side through the good and the bad, the happy and the sad. You are one of the most genuine people that I know. You accept me for my flaws and have even helped me to embrace them because they make me who I am. I love sitting back and looking at all of the things that you are doing with your life because it makes me happy to see you succeed and to be the person that I know you can be. I am forever grateful for you and I cannot say that enough times because it is true. I look to you in more ways then one and not only because you are tall. Thank you for being you and for being there for me. I am really lucky to have found a friend like you. Thank you for everything and more and for giving me the best years of my life, and most importantly thank you for being my friend. I love you and I hope you know it. Thank you for coming into my life and for bringing me joy.

Thank you for it all.

I am forever lucky to call you a friend.

Love,

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.
