I wrote you a letter so you know exactly what you'll be getting yourself in to.

Dear Future Husband Or Wife
Amber Lynn Naughton

Dear future husband or wife,

I don’t know who you are, or maybe I do, but I’m going to love you someday. I’m going to be in love with you. Who knows, maybe I already love you as a friend. I’m going to really love you though with all my heart and soul, and I pray you will reciprocate the feelings.

Our love story will most likely be ordinary. We meet, become friends, develop feelings that we will ignore until one of us is brave enough to tell the other how we feel. Then we will date, for a while, someone will propose, get married, and have a family with lots children and dogs and cats! We will live in a nice home, nothing too big, raise our kids, retire, and spend our free days in each others company. People will say “they’re such a lovely couple,” but again nothing too extraordinary. We will live nice, simple lives and we will love so much.

Nothing is ever that easy though is it? Anyone who knows me will tell you “nice and simple” just isn’t my style. I may be a little bit crazy, but in a good way I promise. I’m insecure, I get angry and jealous, and I cry, like a lot. Sometimes I’m stubborn and hard headed — ok fine, maybe a little more than sometimes, but hey, I’m only human. I curse a lot too, more often then I probably should. Nobody’s perfect, right? Occasionally, I will do things just to start a fight because if you fight back, it means you care enough to try.

I’m not perfect, but neither are you. You’re perfect for me though. Despite all my flaws, and inevitably yours as well, I will love you so deeply. That is the one thing I can promise you. I can’t promise that it will be all sunshine and rainbows all the time. Where’s the fun in that anyway? I can promise you that it will be one crazy, fun, loving journey. A journey that I can’t wait to take. Actually, I can wait, because I know there is a reason I don’t know who you are yet. I don’t know what that reason is, but I trust that when the time is right the universe will bring us together.

One last thing before I go. No matter how much pain and heartache I have to go through before I find you, it’ll all be worth it when I can finally hold the love of my life in my arms and know that you are mine, forever.

Love,

Your future wife

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.
