A Thank-You Letter To The Best Sisterhood
Author

I am in a sorority that has changed my life in ways I never thought were possible. I have become a stronger and better woman. Here is my thank-you letter to my sorority -- I wouldn't be where I am today without you.

Dear Tri Sigma,

Thank you for showing me how to become a better women of character and live our values every day. Thank you for helping me realize that no challenge is too big to overcome. Thank you for helping me understand that in order to receive much, you must give much. Thank you for allowing me to see what it's like having sisters that I can count on to boost me up when I'm feeling down. I'm so thankful and grateful that the sisters of Tri Sigma gave me the opportunity to become apart of their sisterhood when I was a potential new member back in the spring of 2014. Before coming to college, I never would have thought that an organization could have such an impact on its members.

Prior to joining Tri Sigma and coming to college, I had no interest in going Greek and only knew of Greek organizations that were talked about in the movies. My mom was Greek but didn't really talk about her sisters or her chapter. The only thing I could compare Greek life to was "Legally Blonde," and I did not see myself in an organization like Delta Nu (sorry, Elle Woods). However, when I came to college, my perception of Greek life changed once I got to know the members of the different organizations and what each organization stood for. I feel in love with Tri Sigma because I knew that I would be accepted and supported by the confident, strong, and sincere sisters I meet during recruitment. Since becoming a member of Tri Sigma, I've leaned how to become a better leader, gained valuable leadership skills, and discovered how if you empower women, they can change the world. My sisters inspire me everyday to be the best person I can be and are always there to encourage me along the way. As our chapter's president, I try to live our values everyday and lead by example.

So thank you, Tri Sigma! For helping me realize that with a little faith, hope, love, wisdom, and power, I can change the world -- and will always have the support of my sisters to guide me along the way. I could not imagine my life without you.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
