To my one and only Floofy,

A year and a half ago, when we had our first real conversation at three in the morning, I thought you wouldn’t care to talk to me again. You didn’t. You texted me again five hours later.

A year and a few months ago when you first told me how you wanted for us to get closer, I thought that you would regret this decision later and tell me you changed your mind. You didn’t. We kept being great friends.

Almost a year ago when I finally decided that I was ready for us, I thought that you would hate me. But again, you didn’t.

For the past year, you surprised me many times and the largest surprise of all is that they were all good ones. I can’t count all of the times that you have comforted and forgiven me.

When I explained my whole background and my family and how everything is just so complicated and difficult, I broke down and cried. I remember feeling that it was all my fault and I just dragged you into my mess. But you kept repeating “It’s not your fault. It’s not your fault”.

When I brought up my depression and my mood swings, I thought you would think that I was making up excuses. I was nervous about how you would react but you said “I know how it feels so don’t worry about it”.

I hate being corny but there is so much that you have done for me. I know you wouldn’t think that you said or did much but it was much more than I had ever expected. Your patience and understanding blows my mind to this day. When I think of all of the tears from last year, I also think of your kindness.

It’s only been one year but it feels so much more has happened than possible within that time span. Thank you for making that time so much more meaningful and happy.

Happy one year.

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.
