An Open Letter To My Big

Everything I do not want you to forget.

An Open Letter To My Big
Person: Karissa Finley

Dear Big,

There will come a time in the near future that we will go our separate ways. We will not see each other every day and we may not be able to talk to each other every day, but you will never stop being important to me. No matter where life takes us or what happens, you will always be my person. Whether that time that we have to leave each other comes within a couple of months or a couple of years, here is a few things I do not want you to ever forget:

You’re my person.

No matter what, you are the person I turn to for everything. You know me better than anyone else, from my darkest secrets to my brightest moments; there are very few people who know half of what you do. You will be at every big life moment for me, just like I will be for you. When I get married, have children, and anything else that life throws at me, I’m bringing you along for the ride.

You will always be my big.

Yes, you are one of my best friends, but you’re also my role model. I look up to you and all that you do. You’re the big sister that I never had. I will always turn to you first for life advice because chances are, it has already happened to you.

Thank you.

Thank you for choosing me to be a part of your family. I love you with all my heart and I feel so blessed to be your little. Thank you for being the best. Thank you for giving me a great college experience. Thank you for giving me an awesome grand-big; I love her, too (even though we haven’t met yet). Thank you for always having my back no matter what. Thank you for the tough love and putting me in my place when I need it. Thank you for absolutely everything you do, you are perfect to me in every way.

I love you.

There is no better way to put it, but I love you like a sister and a best friend. I don’t know how I managed life without you before, and now I can’t imagine my life without you in it. You are my ride or die, along for the ride for the rest of our lives. You’re half my soul and half my heart, without you I would fall apart.

I promise you that I will never let our relationship die out. I want you there through the rest of my crazy life adventures, and I hope you want me through yours. I love you to the moon and back, and I am so proud to call you my big. I truly believe we are the best big/little duo out there. Thank you for being my best friend, forever and always.

Love always,

Your Little

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.
