To The Best Friend That Didn't Make It To This Chapter In My Life

The chapter we did share was a great one.

I saw something the other day that took me back to when we were inseparable, and I wanted so badly to call you immediately and tell you about it.

I didn't, though, because you and I don't really talk anymore. It was then I felt the you-sized hole in my heart again. I don't know at what point everything ended. It seems like one day it was you and me against the world, and the next day, it was you and the world against me. I want you to know that despite the distance and time that's between us now, I haven't stopped loving you and wanting the best for you, and whatever it was that wedged us apart broke my heart.

In the end, I know that we both share the blame for whatever petty mess put us where we are today.

I want to apologize for the things that I did that you blame me for. I harbor no hard feeling toward you, and I would hope you harbor no bad feelings toward me. I would hate for anger to tarnish the wonderful memories we have together.

The times of me knowing you like the back of my hand and always being the person you turn to have faded, but I know that I wouldn't be who I am today if it hadn't been for you. You taught me more than you know. In true times of darkness in my life, you were the light.

Thank you for the laughter, the jokes, and the crazy times we had that will forever be with me. Thank you for showing me your unique perspective on life, and unknowingly changing my view on the world.

If someone had told me back then that we wouldn't grow told together, I would have laughed in their face. But I've learned that people change and grow. When they do, they either grow together or grow apart. You and I grew apart. For so long my place in the world was right next to you, and whoever has that place now is definitely lucky.

I'll love you forever,

Your old best friend

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.
