To My Best Friends

I want to thank my best friends for everything they do for me.

To My Best Friends

There are so many things that I have to be grateful for, but one of those things are my best friends. Without my best friends, I would be lost because I look at them just like they are my family. I feel a need to tell my best friends seven things that I feel like they need to know.

1. I am proud of you.

Over time I have watched you change into the person you are today. I watched you battle obstacles that we both thought you would never get over, but you ended getting over time. I am constantly excited when I see you have done something you never done before or chasing after your dreams. When you tell me something that you are proud of, I share the same emotion with you.

2. Your happiness matters.

Honestly, you deserve to be happy. I want you to be happy with the choices you make for yourself. Those choices include your love life, education, job, other friendships, or activities that you enjoy doing. I am not always share the same feelings on certain things you enjoy, but if it makes you happy than I will be happy too. I always want to know to never settle because you think it will make you happy. If you see a chance that would make you even happier then take that choice because life is all about finding your happiness in the life that you want.

3. You will forever be my person.

I do not care how far away we are from each other in the future, you will always be my other person. You are the first person I want to tell when something important happens in my life. I know we may not talk or see each other every day, but I always know that if I needed you, you would stop what you are doing for me. I hate to say this, but you are going to have to deal with me as your best friend forever.

4. I am thankful for you.

I am extremely thankful that you guys were put in my life. During some tough times that I have went through, you guys helped me find happiness during those time and most importantly you helped me go through those times. I am also thankful that you guys always know what advice to tell me or just be the listening ear that I need. I am always that I get to experience this life with you.

5. Your opinion matters.

Do not let someone tell you that your opinion is wrong because to you and me it is right. Sometimes I may not agree with your opinion, but it is one that I love to have. Like your opinion about the next person I date matters because you guys always seem to know what is best for me. Or when I decided to make a big change in my life. Your opinion may not matter to other people, but I want you to know that no matter if we aren't speaking, it will always matter to me.

6. I'll always be here for you.

I do not care how busy I get, I will always answer your phone call or text. I want to be that person you turn to when you feel like you have nobody else to turn to. It may seem like our friendship is slipping away when we go months without talking or each other but know it will never be over and that I will always find a way to be there for you.

7. I love you.

I love you is the most important thing I want you to take out of this article. I love all the memories we have created so far and I cant wait to create more memories with. I love you like you are my sister because you are basically my sister. No matter how far we get from each other or how we do not speak always remember I love you.


Without you in my life, I would not be the person I am today. You guys have made a huge impact on my life so far. Thank you for being the amazing friends that you are.

Love you,

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.

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.
