Dear Jordan Spieth

You win some and you lose some.

Dear Jordan Spieth,

I just would like to start off by saying you are what golf truly means. Then the biggest collapse happened in Masters history with you leading five strokes in the final round. I know it must have been tough to lose to Danny Willett, but he's 28 years old and has a few more years under his belt, but I know you will be there one day.

You started off really strong and leading almost the entire time until the end. So it just shows that you are meant for this game and clearly have a love for it. You are 22 years old and in the Masters while I'm over here being 21 years old just getting a double major in sports journalism and communication studies. On top of that, you won last year as well as tied the record with Tiger Woods for the 72-hole record. Now that is pretty amazing and shows that you can be a legend.

I actually have faith that one day you will be one of the greats, and a lot of young kids look up to your drive. You have to be the best and that is an inspiration. It's amazing to see someone around my age doing big things like that. It has been inspirational too because I know I can reach my goals at a young age, too.

Also have you seen what people have been tweeting? Especially reporters? It has been very positive, you composed yourself so well even after losing. I believe that's one of the toughest things, especially when you are so close to winning. When asked about the Masters in general you didn't pout, cry, or be hostile towards reporters, but instead you were what every athlete should strive to be. So thank you from a future sports reporter for not giving us a hard time. Much respect, and maybe you can teach Cam Newton a lesson because I know he has the potential to be like you after a hard loss. So next year go get them, and also let's get married, okay?

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.
