A Letter To My Best Friend

I don't know what I would do without you

A Letter To My Best Friend
Kate Huber

Dear Best Friend,

I know you are starting to feel special now because I made my entire article about you, but just know that you are more than my best friend, you are my sister. I never thought I would have grown such a strong bond with you. When we first met, we seemed like complete opposites of each other. You had a crap ton of clothes, shoes and you always took the longest to get ready. That part of you made me think that we weren’t going to get along at all. Once our parents left us after the first couple of hours of move-in day, we started bonding. You liked all the same things I liked and we had the same personality and views on things. You were seriously my twin and I couldn’t figure out how I got so lucky.

It seems strange to me to have such a strong and close connection with you when we have only been friends for a year and four months now. I couldn’t imagine myself being where I am today without you. We do absolutely everything together and your family considers me to be one of their daughters/granddaughters. I cannot tell you how blessed I am to have had God put you in my life.

I know that you don’t always feel like you pitch in or help out a lot around the apartment, but you do. I am not used to being alone all the time because I always had someone there to keep me company. I get lonely living here because I don’t have very many friends, but knowing that you’re my roommate and that you’re going to be home soon, makes everything better. I love having you as my best friend and roommate because it is like living with my twin sister. You contribute so much more than you think you do. You are literally there for me every single day, especially when I am sad, mad, confused, frustrated, and every other emotion there is. You are there with me to experience this and to help me through it. You are my number one support system. When I feel like giving up on something or quitting, you stop me and remind me how I can accomplish anything and how you will be there with me through this time.

I do not care how much stuff you buy for the apartment or how much money or food you bring home. All I care about is you being there with me through this crazy journey in our life’s and making me smile every day of my life. I am beyond grateful for you and I am proud to call you my best friend/sister.

Love you forever and always bestie,

Kate Huber

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.
