A Letter To My Best Friend
Tiffany DeMarco

To the dearest best friend AKA my loser,

Here’s to you, my best friend. You are the only one who pulled me out of the dark place I was in and stuck around to make sure I couldn’t go back there. You make everything easier, and you’ve taught me that everyday is a new adventure. I can’t imagine who I’d be without you, I don’t want to know. With your help, I have become an outgoing, trusting, and accepting person. Because of you, I have become stronger. You were the light of my darkness, and the only out-stretched hand offering to help. I will never be able to explain just how thankful I am to have you in my life. You are my hero, and my partner in crime. You are my other half.

To the best friend who never gave up on me, despite seeing my biggest demons: thank you. Thank you for always being there even when I least deserved it, thank you for always listening, thank you for being quick to forgiveness and slow to anger. Thank you for holding my hand when I was scared, thank you for laughing with me and crying with me, thank you for being someone I could depend on repeatedly for emotional support and someone who will drop everything at a moment's notice when I need someone. Thank you for calling me strong even at my weakest moments, thank you for believing in me and lifting me up, thank you for being the voice of reason when I am at my most unreasonable. Words can not describe how lucky I am to have someone in my life like you. I’ve never made or maintained friendships easily and I am the queen of pushing people away, but you have always fought for me, and I love you so much because of it. I never knew how much I needed someone like you in my life, but I really don’t think I’d have made it through the past year without you by my side. I don’t know what I ever did without you or what I’d ever do if you were gone. Just, thank you. For everything.

You're the one best friend who doesn't leave. You're the one best friend who always stuck with me, even when I yelled at you. Even when it was the worst ever, we got through it.

We've only been friends for about a month and a couple days, but we haven't been split since, and I really hope we never will be. You're a beautiful person, and one day? Everything will be okay.

Love,

Your loser

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.
