Dear My Maid of Honor

Because I Wouldn't Want Anyone Else By My Side

Dear My Maid of Honor,

Thank you for everything you've done for me and everything you will do for me in the future. Thank you for being there when no one else and thank you for being my best friend. You were there through my awkward years and strange times. You were there during all of my laughs and through many of the tears. You were there when I obsessed over every new crush and helped me get over every heartbreak. You were there through insane life choices like what color I'm dying my hair or what to order when we do out to eat. Honestly though, I'm happy you made the choice to become my friend back in high school. I'm forever grateful for you and your ability to put up with my weirdness, my endless rambling and always making me feel like I had someone to turn to.

Okay so I may have not gotten the ring yet, but let's face it we both know that it's coming... eventually. Maybe even sooner than later, but honestly you knew for years now that I would be asking you to stand there and be next to me as I marry the man of my dreams. I wouldn't want anyone else by my side with all the planning, and adventuring, especially with picking out the dress.

I'm thankful I had you when I was first interested in this guy. You gave me great advice and constantly told me I was ready to try, even though I didn't think so. The advice you gave me was to give everyone a chance but never to jump in head first unless they were willing to jump in with you. And well I'm glad listened to you. You always gave me the best advice, though sometimes I wouldn't take it and feel stupid afterward. Anyway, somehow this one passed all your tests and you approve of him. And I'm so glad that you do. Let's face the truth, you're going to know the moment he asks way before I do and hopefully, you're going to be there wherever it happens.

I know you're going to accept the title of Maid of Honor when I officially ask you, but don't worry I'll still ask you in an insanely creative way. And we will venture through this crazy planning process together. I can't wait and I hope you can't either! I want to apologize in advance though for any crazy bridezilla things I might do.

But thank you again for being my best friend, my partner in crime, and my number one. Thank you for saving my sanity, or giving up yours to reach my level. Thank you for all the late night food runs, last minute sleepovers and random shenanigans we have done. Thank you for being there to tell what was and wasn't a good idea. Thank you for being the one I want to be by my side.

Love,

Your Best Friend

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent 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.
