Dear Future Little

Dear Future Little
Madeline Raineri

My lovely little,

Almost a year ago, I would sit in my room on Pinterest and scroll through different Big/Little ideas for when the time came that I could have a little to call my own. I never thought of myself as "sappy" and I never wanted to "try too hard" but let me tell you... I am so excited and SO in love!

I started buying crafts for you as soon as I found out who you were and what you liked (which is coincidentally the same stuff as me), and I have been losing sleep because I was so excited. Instead of sleeping I was dreaming up craft ideas and how I would make my reveal amazing.

I found my mind constantly drifting to you and the clues I would give you to (maybe) help you figure out who I am.

I found myself stressing over the crafts I am giving you to make sure they are ABSOLUTE perfection, just like you.

But enough with the crafts, I cannot wait to be your friend, which is the best part of the Big/Little program. The friend you can call whenever and I will be there just to talk or to laugh uncontrollably.

I want to be the girl who sits in the back of the room with you and cracks jokes while we're supposed to be serious (let's face it, I already am that girl).

Most of all, I want to be someone you can look up to and trust. Real friendship is hard to come by these days, and I am more than willing to step up to the plate and be the friend you need in any situation.

Dear Little,

I cannot wait to be there for you every step of the way. Whether it is through Delta Zeta or everyday life, I am so ready.

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.
