Kami, this is for you!

I just want to take a moment to thank God that I came to Northgate. I thank God for placing you in my life.

I am not even sure where to start with this. There is so much I want to tell you, but this is only the start of much bigger picture.

I just want to thank you for being my un-biological sister. I remember how awkward it was (for me at least) when I first met you. Do you remember when I didn't know how to hug? Now, we have grown so close and I don't know what I would do without you. Thank you for accepting me. Thank you for loving and caring about me.

Speaking of acceptance, I thank you for never judging me. I'm so happy I am able to come to you with anything. Through my happiest times and through my worse times, you are always there and I am glad.

Every day, I am thankful for the day that we met. Meeting you was only in God's perfect timing. You stand by me and I am by you. I thank you for encouraging me and supporting me. I have grown so much. I thank you for talking with me, listening to me, and praying with me. It makes me so happy that I can trust you knowing that you will always be here for me. Thank you for never letting me down. I am thankful for all of your honesty. You are such a wonderful person and you have impacted my life in so may positive ways.

You are the older sister that I have always dreamed of having. You make me so happy. When I first met you, I did not know you would have such a big part in my life. Kami, you are someone I look up to. You are an inspiration to me. I have learned so much from you in such a short time. I enjoy every minute that I am with you or talk to you. Thank you for the smiles and for the laughter. I am so thankful to have a person like you in my life. Meeting you showed me what it is really like to have a true friend. I remember always searching for friends and always settling in groups where I did not belong. I remember always feeling friendless and alone until I met you. Meeting you showed me and made me feel what it is actually like to have someone (other than family) love you and care about you. Thank you.

I thank you for protecting me and always being here to help me. I thank you for advising me and always helping to direct me. You have helped me in so many ways, that I am not able to put into words. My feelings are much stronger. I am so happy to call you my sister.

In you I see love. In you I see selflessness. In you I see inspiration.

I am so glad God brought us together. I love 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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
