To My Guy Best Friend

To the person who has been there since the beginning, and still hasn't run away.

To My Guy Best Friend
Bib On The Sofa

All girls dream of having the perfect guy friend. It is like instant access into the "guy world." Advice from a guy himself? I don't think you could score any bigger. Having a guy best friend, however, brings so much more though than a girl without a guy best friend could imagine. I would know because up until right before middle school, I was that girl who longed for that insight and friendship from a guy. Maybe I just happened to be blessed with the ultimate guy friend, but I gained so much more than advice from our friendship.

So here's to you.

Thank you for listening to my petty female issues. And I mean really listening. You're so easy to talk to about everything and anything, and I know no matter what the issue is or what time of day it is, you'll be there to listen, and not make me feel completely crazy. Thank you for keeping me grounded and not letting me forget where I came from. Thank you for reminding me of who I am and why there is and never was anything wrong with that person. Thank you for making sure to make me laugh at least once daily. Thank you for continuing to grow with me and laugh as we do.

You've been there since the beginning. You're the person who I think of when I talk about my childhood. Whether it be singing to Rupert Holmes' Pina Colada in my basement, having a paint fight or watching scary movies and laughing until I cried making fun of them, you were there. You've seen my worse, my best and everything in between. You've made my life so much easier being able to have insight from two different types of friends-my girlfriends and you. More importantly, you have always managed to make me happy.

You've always known that our relationship would be irreplaceable in my life. I could never share the same amount of memories with another guy friend. You've always known I could never trust another guy friend in the way I do you. You've always known that no matter what we have been through or the arguments we have had that I would always be there at the end of the day. Our relationship is indescribable.

I know that whenever I meet new friends or have a new romantic relationship in my life, I will have to explain who the guy is whose name keeps popping up on my phone, or the one who's in the picture with me I have framed in my room. I always have to laugh and explain that you are my best friend, brother and the biggest freak I know all rolled into one. You are the most energetic, caring and hilarious person I know. I cannot wait to see what you accomplish in this life as you have so much to offer the world. I hope the world gets to see everything I see in you. No matter where you go in this life, know that you're part of me, and that will forever be something that other people in my life will have to understand.

Thank you for always understanding me. Thank you for always being you.

I love you always you weirdo,

Your Best Friend

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.
