Hear Me Out, Friends That Make You Cry Are The Best Kind Of Buds
Jennifer Kustanovich
"A friend is one who knows you and loves you just the same."
(Elbert Hubbard)

Friendships are almost as or even just as challenging as relationships. They need time to grow and develop as people share stories, share laughs, share tears, share. This past year I have been so lucky to have met the best of friends.

I've realized that the most important people in your life are your friends, especially the best of friends that you just click with. The friends that no matter how long you've known, whether for a long time or short while, know the ins and outs of your mind. They think the same way, understand your way of thought and are always there to make fun of you.

My partners in crime understand my middle-of-the-night noises and afternoon naps like no other. They've seen me at my best, at my worst, and all the in-betweens. Today, I'm acknowledging that I'm not alone. No, far from it.

Our commitment to one another is truly like no other, even compared to the other best friends. We're not afraid to tell one another how it is--whatever the circumstances. My friends and I are similar, yet different, and I wouldn't have it any other way. We bring various sides to every situation.

We read one another's minds. Don't ask me how, but we are always thinking the same thing and if something is going on all we need is one glance to understand one another.

"True friends are like diamonds: bright, beautiful, valuable, and always in style."
(Nicole Richie)

We've been through plenty this year, but it's only just the beginning. I can't wait for our future together. You are my forever, and you are mine forever. Thank you for filling my heart when it needed it most. Our husbands are going to have to be okay with our slumber parties as we kick them out of the room to gossip, talk about lingerie, and laugh about the weird things in life.

I may be walking alone as I become stronger than ever, but I couldn't do it without your support and understanding of my weirdness.

So, thanks and I love you.

RESPECT ONE ANOTHER

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.
