To My Graduating Sorority Sisters
Sorority Sugar

Dear beautiful seniors,

I really don't know where to start. Honestly, I just can't believe that it's time for us to send you off. I foolishly denied that being an adult was required at some point in life and that college sorority life somehow lasted forever. I assumed that we would always be having dinner together after meeting, movie nights in the house, and glittering up for Greek week and homecoming together forever. But that's not how it is. You have to go out and be an adult, and as much as I need to be OK with that, I'm not. Actually, none of us are. I want to scream and tell you to stay, but I'll hold that inside if you promise to hear me out.

You all are shining stars in our eyes. Please never forget that. You helped our chapter soar to new heights in scholarship, philanthropy, and most importantly, sisterhood. You have supported us through our best and worst moments as a chapter, and for that, we are all grateful. You have no idea how special you are to each and every one of us.

We aren't ready for you to go, but we are so proud of you as you prepare to walk across that stage with your cap and gown. We are proud of how far you have come, and how far that we know you will go. These past years have been fantastic, but now it's time to let you share your beautiful souls with the rest of the world.

Do what you need to do. We know you are each going to change the world. So go ahead and go to grad school, get that dream job, travel the world, anything you want. Don't sell yourself short because we all know that you deserve absolutely nothing less than the best. Live with grace. Live with purpose. Live your dreams.

When you have a bad day in your beautiful office, or wherever your dreams take you, we hope that you look back and think of us. We hope you remember all of the smiles you gave us and how much of an inspiration that you are to each and every one of us. You are never alone. When you get lost in life, remember our values. Remember what drove you to this organization and what made you stay. And most importantly, call us. We will continue to support you through all of your future adventures. Sisterhood is not just for four years, but for life.

Please never think that you will not be missed next year. You will always be in our mind as we bring in new sisters, participate in our campus events and much more. Your positive spirit will loom over us as we continue to make our sisterhood as great as it can be.

If you forget all but one thing, please remember that you will always and forever be our sister and that we love you more than words can say.

This is not goodbye, just "see you later".

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.
