I never expected you, but am extremely grateful for you

An Open Letter To My Best Friend Who Became My Boyfriend

To this day, I have never been more grateful that every day I get to spend with you. Every day is an adventure and for that, I can never replace. When we first met, I was completely shy. I was in a new place and you made me laugh and smile. That day when we first talked, I saw you look right through me. I never knew that we would be where we are today. We are so far and we have much farther to go.

Without you, I would not have discovered who I have been this whole time. You have helped me become a better version of myself. While we have been together, you have seen me through my highest highs and lowest lows. Now it's my turn to return the favor. You have been my best friend first. I really have never had to worry about anything with me. You take care of me greatly. I could never repay you for the things you have done for me.

I am thankful because more than anything you have inspired me to push to be better. Throughout the course of our relationship, we started out as friends and quickly became more than that. Without that first day we met, without me choosing OU, without me choosing meteorology as a major, I would have never come to love someone more than myself. There are not enough words in this world to describe how thankful I am of you.

You graduate in a matter of months and I will never be able to tell you how terrified I am of that day. Ultimately, I know you have to leave and get on with your life. I know this day is the most exciting time for you, but it is the day I am dreading most. It means that our time together will become short and more cherish-able. This is the time where we will shine together. I can't wait to see the next chapter for us and how we will continue to grow as a couple.

To my best friend: I can't wait to stand by your side through all of this, to support you through all your adventures and be your biggest fan!

To my boyfriend: I love you and the journey is just beginning for us. We have had some rough patches regardless of them, I will always be there through thick and thin for you.

I cannot be more thankful to have my two favorite people in one person. Not everyone is so lucky to have someone like that, and I do, with you I have it all. I love you.

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.
