Happy Birthday To My Soul Sister
Kara Hickey

My Dearest Florence,

On January 9, 1995, the world was blessed with a wonderful gal named Christina, and guess what? That's you! Twenty-two years later and you're still my best friend. I thought since twenty-two isn't a huge birthday, I'd make it one by writing an article about you.

Having your best friend as your cousin is honestly the best because we are always going to have to love each other no matter what. It is seriously my favorite thing knowing that I can walk across the street and I am at your house. Knowing that you are literally always there, whether or not you know I am coming or not. I want to thank you for always supporting me on everything. Whether it was a decision or something I did, you are always by my side.

Thank you for treating me more like a sister than a cousin, and even more like a sister than just a friend. Thank you for sticking by my side during my darkest days, and being there to enjoy my lightest days as well. Thank you for helping me become an adult along with you, even though being an adult sucks! Thank you for letting your puppies be mine, and your brothers mine too. Most importantly, thank you for being the role model I have looked up to for as long as I can remember. I only hope one day I can be half the woman that you are.

Always remember how much people love you, and to never stop following your heart. Have a wonderful birthday, and remember I love you always.

Enjoy your day, Wilma

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.
