A Letter To The Man Who Marries My Sister

To a smart man,

First off, I’d like to say congratulations. You could have ended up with any woman in the world. But you made the wise decision to choose my sister.

Secondly, marrying my sister means marrying my whole family. Good luck with that.

Undoubtedly, one of the first things you probably noticed about my sister is how beautiful she is. She can light up a room with her smile alone, something she got from our Dad. However, there are going to be days when she doubts herself. Be there to remind her how gorgeous she truly is on the inside and out.

My sister is one of the strongest people in the world. She has always been someone I’ve looked up to through all the hard times. Nonetheless, there will be moments where she will crack, and maybe take some of her emotions out on you. Don’t get mad at her for this. Be patient, hold her hand and be her shoulder to cry on.

My sister has a guilty pleasure for TV shows like "The Bachelor" and "The Voice." You can forget about "Monday Night Football" from here on out.

Just a fair warning -- my sister is not always so pleasant in the morning. I’m talking from years of experience. Trying to wake her up on Christmas Day year after year has resulted in objects being thrown at me, curse words being yelled at me and much more. Save yourself the frustration and just leave a cup of coffee at her bedside.

She comes from a family who loves dogs. So, if she hasn’t asked you already, expect her to ask to get a puppy sometime soon. Even if you say no, she’ll go out and get it herself behind your back.

My sister has a caring heart, something she got from our Mom. She has a passion for helping people in any way she can. From mission trips to everyday favors, she will always be there to lend a helping hand. Inspire her to keep this attitude up. It is just another amazing quality of hers.

I’m sure you know it, but let me remind you how lucky you really are. You scored big time in winning my sister over. I wouldn’t trade her for anything in the world. If you’re smart, you won’t let her go. In marrying my sister, you are boarding the craziest rollercoaster. However, it will be a fun ride, filled with laughter, good memories and the best years of your life. She will love you unconditionally and be the best friend and lover you have been looking for all your life. As her sister, I can honestly say that she will make you the happiest man in the world.

I wish you two endless love and happiness.

Sincerely,

A new sister of yours

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.
