To the Friend Who is Always with Me

I am so glad to have you as a friend

To the Friend Who is Always with Me
Huffington Post

Dear friend,

Thank you for your constant support. Every time I see you, you make me feel like my problems have no hold on me. You constantly encourage and build me up, without asking anything in return. I only wish I could make you believe about yourself all the things I know you to be. You see only your own failings, and only the good in others. There is so much good within you, and you just don’t know. Thank you for never making me feel as if I’ve wronged you or ignored you, even when I have sometimes. I know you need a little more quality time than I’ve given recently, but thank you for being patient. Thank you for letting me grow and learn, as you grow and learn, and thank you for helping me along the way. You’re always there with a hug and a dank meme whenever I need it.

I want you to know that you are so beautiful, inside and out. Your style is unparalleled and your face shines like the sun. Your soul is so magnificent, innocent and loveable. Your mind is sharp and you aren’t fooled by false precedences. You are just so smart and clever, kind and always attuned to the needs of those around me. You take such good care of your friends.

Remember, my friend, to take care of yourself. You need just as much care and encouragement as those to whom you give these things. Take time for yourself, and don’t be afraid to be vulnerable and broken. It’s a hard life we live, in a broken world. You can’t give so much to others if you won’t accept anything for yourself. Let your friends be for you what you are for them.

It is so alright that you struggle sometimes. You’re allowed to be weak, and your friends are here to catch you when you fall. I hope you never feel like a burden or a bother. Just remember that you’re not. I love listening to you even when you’re talking about your problems. Especially then. I sincerely pray that you never feel unwanted, because you’ve never made me feel like less than your favorite person. Thank you for that.

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.
