If this were my last day I would say. . .

I am thankful for the way you all have loved me

If this were my last day I would say. . .

Well, this is it, my last time. I have greatly appreciated all those in my life and what they have done for me. I hope for those I called my family to know that I love you with all my heart and have never meant to hurt you. I wish you could understand how much you have meant to me. I am thankful for all that were in my life growing up because I sure did go through a lot.

To my childhood friends I can never ever forget how much fun we had doing all the dumb little things we did. We stressed my grandparents out so much by the way we would be all over the neighborhood. I must also apologize for all of the food I ate at y’all’s house. I don't know why, but for some odd reason when I got to your house, I instantly got hungry and asked for something to eat. Speaking of food, I also need to apologize to my aunt and uncle for how much food I ate at your house. I swear I cleaned out the refrigerator some of those nights I was over. Also, I am sorry for those nights when I cried all night for my mom to pick me up and when I got so fed up with my mom not answering I called the police just to hang up. Then they would show up at “too late o’clock”. I am really sorry about that, sincerely.

The thing is as a child I didn’t really think things through and honestly I still don’t. I don’t quite understand why I did some of those things when I was younger. Again to all of those that were in my life then and that aren’t now remember I tried to show how much I cared about you all. Then to those in my life now, I hate you all. Just joking, those in my life now you mean more to me now more than ever. I can never repay you all for treating me so well. I know I doubted that you loved me from time to time, but I am working on believing that. I hope one day that I can believe how much you guys care for me.

To my new friends that I have made in college I am so thankful for you because my first two years were not fun and were very lonely. You guys—and girls— have been so amazing to me. You made me fall in love with Texas Tech all over again. There are times that when I leave hanging out with y’all that I thank God for the blessings you all have been in my life. I hope that I have been a blessing in your lives as well.

What I have noticed is that we as people want to wait until the end of their friendships, relationships, or even their own life to tell those they care about how they really feel. Why wait? Tomorrow is not promised and neither are the things we have in our life. If someone has blessed you thank him or her with sincere meaning and try to be a blessing to him or her. We were put on this planet not for our own selves, but for each other. So, If you’re reading this please make the effort and appreciate the time you have with those around you. Thank the Lord for the opportunities and blessings that we have have.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
