To One Of My Best Friends  As She Becomes A Bride
Hailie Dion

Hey girlie,

I can't believe we are finally here. We've passed student teaching together, completed our senior years together, and have crossed the stage to get our degrees together. So now we're here. This is the day we've talked about during our late night FaceTime chats, and before and after classes, and your big day is finally here!

I may not have known you for too long, but I've known you long enough to know that you have been eager and waiting for this day since you got engaged. And I don't blame you! You two were meant for each other, and I am so happy that you have found your person, and now you get to spend forever together.

The relationship you two have is something out of a movie. Two best friends who finally get together after years of being "just friends," fall in love, and live happily ever after! It's the relationship girls everywhere dream about, and you're living it! It might not have been the easiest thing to do, with your late night FaceTimes and notes and flowers via snail mail, but you did it! You both made it out on the other side stronger than ever, and we've finally made it to your wedding day! I'm so happy for you.

I just know you two will surely live "happily ever after." I have no doubt in my mind that he will treat you like the princess that you deserve to be treated, and that you'll work through anything that tries to get in the way of you two's happiness.

You compliment each other so nicely, and more importantly, you're best friends first! And that's a beautiful thing to see in this generation-- true love.

Just know that I am so so happy for you. And even though you'll be moving pretty far away, just know I'll be there whenever you need me-- whether it's a FaceTime call, a road trip, or an overnight flight, I'll be there. I promise.

We may have just met four years ago freshman year, but I cannot picture my life without you in it. We have made it through some of the most challenging parts of our lives together, and I do not plan on giving all of that up simply because you'll be moving to a different state after the wedding.

We may be growing up and moving on after college, but we will never move apart. You will always be one of my best friends, and I will always be here whenever you need me.

I'm so happy to have met someone like you, and to have such a great friend in you. I'm so happy that you have found happiness with your now husband (whoa that was weird to say..you're "adulting"!), and I'm so happy to be able to share in your special day with you.

Thank you for being a lifesaver these past four years, and being my friend.

I love you, pal! And congratulations on your big day!

Love always,

Hails

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.
