We may not talk, but I'm ALWAYS here.

A Letter To My Friends I don't Talk To Anymore
Iriel Evans

Dear Old Friends,

We started off ready, ready to show the world what we were made of. I never imagined in a million years we would ever stop talking. I herd about people losing touch after high school or through life but I knew that wasn't going to be us. Now, here we are and we barley talk anymore. I find myself racking my brain trying to figure out what happened. Was it us going to different colleges, did we just grow apart, was it because I joined a sorority and you didn't, was it because I made new friends or was it because you thought I didn't cared? Every time I came home for breaks from college we scheduled times to meet and catch up. At first we did, but eventually as time passed as breaks passed one of us always had an excuse and before you knew it, we weren't talking at all.

I find it hilarious because in high school we were always the ones saying "we will definitely talk in college" or "we will definitely talk in life." Now, we have fallen into that dumb statistic which I absolutely hate.There are so many times I find myself reminiscing through old photos of us and laughing out loud because of something funny you did. Wow the memories. I also secretly lurk through your social media accounts. I love seeing pictures of you happy and living life. Now, its been a couple months since I have herd from you. I find myself thinking about you and wondering if you even care that we don't talk anymore.

I cannot even imagine where I would be today were it not for that handful of friends who have given me a heart full of joy. Let's face it, friends make life a lot more fun. — Charles R. Swindoll

I miss coming home from school after just seeing you and staying on the phone for hours. I miss having girls and guys night out going to the movies and dinner. I miss going to football games and just having fun. I miss doing everything together. We were all so close. I have learned a lot from our friendship’s highs and lows through the years. I took that with me and I know it has made me a better person and friend.

So yes, we are not friends anymore which sucks but, sometimes life happens. Sometimes we just grow apart. I don't know what the future holds. So, I just want you to know I love you and I will forever be here for you. No matter what situation or time of day. Just know I am at the sideline cheering you on. I want you to know how proud I am of you. You are doing amazing things in the world. Never forget to reach for the stars and accomplish all the dreams you had and are going to have.

The greatest gift in life is friendship and I have received it. — Hubert H. Humphrey

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
