To The Friends I Lost In High School

Hard feelings are the farthest from what I feel

To The Friends I Lost In High School

Grade school is full of regrets and I am no exception. Wrong decisions, bad grades, and the famous relationships with the people you chose to stand by you through the rough years of adolescence.

To my dear friends that I have lost over these years,

As regrettable as our falling out is I have only trust in God who is leading us down separate paths. There is no greater reason for this writing than to let you know that hard feelings are the farthest thing from what I feel about our mutual and very conscious decision to live life apart. I still think about you regularly, the times we dreamed of having together and coming to the realization that God was working in us. God just wanted us to live separate lives, which was difficult. I missed you, I sometimes still do.

I will probably always wonder exactly what it was that drove us apart, but for today I will be thankful to see you with different people. I will forever hope that those people treat you better and appreciate you more than I did. In the future days, as we both change, for the better I pray, I hope we could reconnect. I hope we could evaluate the changes we both made to fulfill the dreams that together we dreamed. I hope that, by God's will, we will once again become members in this life together.

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.
