A Letter To My High School Best Friend
Sara Clemens

Dear Best Friend,

First of all, cheers to us for still being the best of friends even though we graduated high school over 2 years ago and we don’t go to the same colleges. I’d like to thank you for being one of the few people who means it when they say “I’m only a phone call away.” Whether it’s the middle of the day or it’s 2am, I can text or call you and get a response within a reasonable amount of time. Thanks for always keeping me updated with what’s going on in your life and for checking up on me when we haven’t talked in a few days. I don’t think I’ll ever find a friend like you, one who still tries to maintain a friendship despite the constant distance and busyness we have. I know you’re my ultimate best friend because when we’re reunited whether it’s after a few days or a few months, it’s like nothing has changed and we pick up exactly where we left off. I’m glad you’re the person that I get to reminisce on embarrassing high school stories with because most of the time we were with each other when they happened.

Thanks for being my gym buddy whenever we are reunited and also being the person I can pig out and watch chick flicks with on a Saturday night. Whenever someone asks who my best friend is, I’m more than happy to tell them it’s you because anyone would be lucky to have such an amazing friend like you! There’s no one else that I’m more comfortable around or willing to do crazy shit with. We both know that the only reason we come back to our hometowns during school breaks other than to see family is to see each other because, well, these towns have nothing else really going for them. Thanks for being my adopted 3rd sister and letting me be a part of your family too.

I’m glad I have you to give me a reality check when I need it and for telling me when my outfits a wreck or there’s something in my teeth. Thanks for being my Sunday morning coffee date whenever possible and for somehow ending up being allergic to gluten so that when we go out to eat I’m not the only weird one. You always know how to cheer me up when something’s wrong and that is something I am eternally grateful for! I can’t wait for the day when we both have amazing jobs and we can go out on our yachts and drink wine like we’ve been planning for years. Here’s to you best friend, I can’t wait to see what the future holds for us!

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.
