A Letter to My Future Little

Dear Little Bit,

I can’t wait to meet you. You’re probably already thinking about recruitment. So am I! Just as you eagerly await meeting all the sororities, I cannot wait for you to find your home in my sorority and begin your journey in sorority life. You are going to have a blast! And after recruitment, I can’t wait to get to know you more, and when you finally turn around at big little reveal, there’s a few things I promise to do.

I promise to strive to be as good of a Big as my Big is to me.

I think I have the best example of a Big possible! Because I have the best Big ever, I will strive to be just like her in everything I do. I could not have made it this far without my Big, and I hope to be that person for you. I’m super excited to spoil you, craft for you and share my favorite Netflix shows with you. At this time last year, I had no idea what I was in for. Joining a sorority was barely even a thought of mine, and I didn't know what kind of an impact it would make on my life. When I think of all the reasons why I love my sorority, the top of the list is always my big.

I promise to laugh until we cry, and be your shoulder to cry on.

That was really cheesy … but really! I promise to be there in your saddest moments, and your happiest. Stupid boys come and go, but as your Big I’ll be here through it all. We're going to have millions of inside jokes and stories to tell, and we'll have memories together that will last a lifetime! I can guarantee there will be tears ... both from laughing until we cry and the real kind of tears. Either way, I promise to be here no matter what.

I promise to guide you through the ins and outs of Greek life.

Advice is my middle name. I’ve been there, I’ve done that (not to long ago). I’ll be your teacher about all things Greek life. I’ll tell you what mixers are like, which guys to stay away from or which ones are the real gentlemen, or what to wear to meetings or new member social. I’ll find you a tutor for biology or math (I’m not good at those), or help you write your English papers. I’ll forgive you for being awkward around fraternity guys and tell you not to beat yourself up over it (I may or may not being speaking from prior experience…)

I promise to never stop being your Big!

From the day you become my little, to the rest of your life, I will be there for you! The Big/Little bond is one that survives countless relationships, seasons of life and can never be broken! Let’s still be besties when we’re old ladies on the front porch sipping on sweet tea. I’ll be “your person” as long as you’ll be mine.

After saying all of this, I feel kind of creepy, but maybe one day you'll actually get to read this.

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.
