Friends might not be around 24/7 but they still care

Friendship means different things to different people.

Friendship means different things to different people. As you grow up and get older your friends will grow up and get older as well. That doesn't mean that they are not your friends what that means is that you will not text 24/7 anymore but rather once a week or once a month. The times you can connect will be even better because you will be able to talk about so much in the short amount of time you talk together.

You will not always see each other every day or even every other day but maybe once a week or once every few weeks. As your life gets busy so does theirs. As you start to deal with different issues so do they. So the time that you guys do have together means so much more because you guys will have each other's full attention!

You might feel depressed that the people you thought were your friends never text you back or don't want to hang out with you. That is not true because they are busy and dealing with their own things. They do want to be your friends, they will text you back, and yes they do want to hang out with you. You guys both have busy schedules so you are not able to talk and hang out all the time anymore. The times you are able to mean so much more and you guys fall back into old routines.

It can be hard and can feel like no one likes you-THAT IS NOT TRUE!! If you feel your friends don't like you then talk to them because it is most likely your anxiety getting the best of you. Yes, this happens-it recently happened to me and when we finally were able to hang out together I felt so much better and realized that they do love me and are my friends.

People are busy and have things to deal with which means that they might not always text you back and might not always be able to chill but when they do it means they do want to talk with you.

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.
