To My Best Friends, I Need You To Know I'm There For You
Kiahna White-Alcain

To the best friends, I'm never always there for, just know you're always in my thoughts.

I think it's an ongoing trend of me to say I don't have time for everything when life gets a little busy. When things get chaotic with school and commitments, the slack always falls back on the people that are always there: my friends.

I can count on more hands that I wish to admit the number of times I've canceled plans on friends due to being busy or not having enough time in my day for.

Yet I'm always the one to say, "we all have the same amount of time in a day."

To the best friends that are always there, just know you're still my best friends even I'm not yours.

I am a sucker for my friends. I adore them, I really do. And there are times when I get caught up in things when I get busy with school when the weather gets colder and darker and all I care about is locking myself in my room after a long day. But I try my hardest to always be there for the people I love. But sometimes, it's not enough. And I have no one else to blame but myself.

To the best friends that are always there, I'm always there even if I'm not.

I get in moods sometimes where I'm feeling lonely and disconnected from the people in my life. And I have to sit back and remind myself of these same feelings and same emotions I give off. Just because they aren't always there for me, doesn't mean they aren't there.

I'm sorry I can't always be this perfect person I strive to be. I try to be this perfect friend that everyone always wants. I try not to complain, try to always listen, try to give advice, and somehow that always seems to backfire. I'll learn that eventually.

To the best friends that are always there, you're a gift and a blessing to me.

Anyone that knows me knows I've never been one to have a mass amount of people in my life. I've always strived for the smaller groups of friends, never wanting to be put in situations with large groups of people. And I've always been okay with that.

Yet I'm still sorry for the few people I've kept close to in my life and haven't always been there for.

To the best friends that are always there, I'll be there as long as you let me. That's something that'll never change

I can only hope that as time goes on, our friendship never fades. And as you and I both get older, our friendship does too.

To the best friends that are always there, there's a reason.

I just want to thank you for all that you do and all that you've done. Sometimes I'm selfish and greedy with my feelings, but just know you have those same privileges too.

To the best friends that are always there, thank 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.
