The Best of Friends

Everyone has friends. Some of us are lucky enough to have Best Friends.

The Best of Friends
blog.mashfeed.com

As we go throughout life, we meet people that we call friends. Some of us have more friends than we can count. Others seem to keep that number to just a select few. No matter the amount of friends that a person has, people always seem to have those friends that are above the rest. The ones we call Best Friends.

Now, I'm not talking about the generic "bff's" you made in early grade school. I'm talking about something more. I'm talking about those friends who you never need to talk to. You can be apart from them for months or even years, and as soon as you get back together, it's as if no time has passed at all. These friends are the ones who can communicate an entire day's worth of stress and problems in a single sigh. Those are The Best of Friends.

We all have those friends. Myself included. I've got those goofy, sometimes annoying friends. Sometimes they do something and I just shake my head. Other times, they'll make comments that are so inappropriate that they make me laugh just writing about it. But in the end, we will always be those guys that everyone looks at and says "How are you guys friends?" And trust me, we've asked that same question ourselves. But we never really expect an answer. Or want one. We all kind of silently agree that whatever the reason is, it doesn't matter. We're just gonna keep pushing on, helping each other through this crazy thing called life. And sometimes laughing when they trip and roll down the steps.

I purposefully left out any names in this article. I left them out so that you could fill them in. You know your friends better than I do. Which ones you love like a brother or a sister. And which ones you'd give anything for just to help them out. You have your inside jokes, and your common enemies. You have common views, or conflicting ones. But somehow you all make it work.

These are The Best of Friends. Cherish them.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
