An Open Letter To My Best Friends

Because it's impossible to give just one person that title.

An Open Letter To My Best Friends

Dear Best Friends,

I know it's weird addressing multiple people at once, but I don't believe in the assumption that people can only have ONE best friend. I can't pick favorites among you guys (well, maybe I can when you buy me food), so this is dedicated to ALL of you.

First of all, I need to thank you guys. Believe it or not at one point in my life if you were to ask me who my best friend was I couldn't name anyone. I don't know what I did to deserve you guys, but I am sure glad I did it.

I want to thank you for being you. You all hold a different place in my heart for unique reasons. Thank you for making me laugh when I'm on the verge of stress-induced tears, reassuring me in my endeavors, listening to my pointless rants, reminding me not to be too hard on myself, taking care of me when I need to be taken care of, kicking me in the butt when I need that extra push, helping me every time I ask for help, and for sticking around even when I make it hard.

When I look back at the memories we have made I get an overwhelmingly happy feeling in my heart. You guys are without a doubt one of the main sources of my happiness, and for that I am forever in debt to you. We have made memories that will stick with me for the rest of my life, and I can only imagine what the future holds for us.

I want you to know that even though I don't say/show it all the time, I love you. Even when you are annoying to my wit's end or making fun of me for saying something stupid, I love you. I appreciate you being such an amazing influence in my life (or at least half of the time).

I miss you all. Even if I just saw you a couple of weeks ago. I might miss some of you more because it has been a long time (almost 3 months qualifies as a long time). Thank you for being a part of my life and here is to all of the shenanigans we will find ourselves in in the future!

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.
