Dear Best Friend,

Lives cross paths for different reasons, and I am thankful for ours crossing. The last three years have left me a few things to tell you:

1. You are beautiful!

You have embraced who you are as a person, and impacted so many people along the way. You are gorgeous inside and out.

2. You can do anything.

In the last four years, I have seen you do many things. You joined Sigma Alpha Iota and Delta Zeta. You also chartered Delta Sigma Pi, graduated in three years, marched in the Jacksonville State University Marching Southerners, all while working. Not to mention you got a job in New York after graduation! Who could do that?!

3. You always follow your heart.

I have never seen something get between you and your dreams. Many are fearful about getting out of their comfort zone but you have always kept going. We have had so many adventures that I will never forget, and I am so excited to see you on your next one!

4. Determination

Girl, I am not sure I have seen someone set a goal for herself and chase after it as strong and confidently as you have. You are a strong-willed woman, do not forget that.

5. Any man will be lucky to have you.

Ok, so one of our many fun nights, that might have or might not have included drinking, we made a marriage pact that if we are not married at the age of thirty we would get married. Well, I am here to tell you that will probably not happen. Knowing how amazing you are, honey you are going to find some red-headed man from some country that is not America, and will be swept off your feet. It will happen, and I have no doubt he is out in the world traveling like you are, waiting to find you.

6. Your fashion sense is one of a kind.

I do not mean this in the "Oh my god, what is she wearing that is totally wretched but at least she is being herself." I mean it as, "Oh my goodness, she is pulling that off like crazy! I wanted to buy that but SO could not pull it off like that." You get me? Haha!

7. You will always be my best friend, and I will always be yours!

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.
