Why Blunt Best Friends are A Blessing
Facebook

Everyone has their own niche, their own group, their own people. Whether you are an introvert or extrovert, you have people to lean on and who will be there for your best interest all throughout life. There are the quiet friends, the outspoken friends, the friends who let you lead them, and the friends that are always there. Then, there are the blunt friends. These ones are the best...at least mine are.

1.) You never have to worry where you stand with them.

If you tick them off or do something you shouldn't have, you'll know. They'll express their concerns and frustrations with you without hesitation. After all, no friendship can succeed without honesty and openness.

2.) They are honest...sometimes too honest, but still, honest.

They'll tell you if that shade of lipstick doesn't work with your outfit or how you're being stupid running back to that guy that broke your heart. They never fail to tell you what they think of your life and how your living it. And, to you, it matters what they think. They do know you best.

3.) They have the softest hearts...

While they are the most blunt people you've ever met and have the hardest exterior, they are the ones that feel the deepest. They'll cry with you and feel things deeply.

4.) They'll tell you what you need to hear...

Even when you don't want to hear it. Best friends know best and the blunt kind won't sugarcoat anything. Whether you're making bad life decisions or that lipstick doesn't go with your outfit, they'll tell you.

5.) They'll never talk behind your back.

Sure if your best friend group is made up of 3 or 4 gals, then they might share concerns with those in the group. But you can bet that they'll say the exact same thing to your face.

So thank those friends who do these things for you. They will shape your life in drastic ways. I know my blunt best friends have...

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.
