Dear Future Soulmate,

For starters, you are a saint for agreeing to spend the rest of your life with me. Honestly, I can't think of one person who can say, "Yes, that girl is sane enough for you to spend the rest of your days with," but you did (assuming I do end up with a husband one day!).

I may not know much about you now, but I know enough about myself to know there's at least a few characteristics you have to have to be considered my husband.

For instance, I love that you help me bring out the very best version of myself. It is because when I am with you I realized why no other relationship worked in the past. People are meant to find other people for a reason, including the ones that don't stay in your life. I'm just here to testify that the not-so-lucky ones who didn't make it to your walk down the isle are just proof that they weren't 100 percent you. It is exhausting and a waste of time to try and be someone else, especially in relationships, and that's why finding someone like you lets me know I can be 100 percent myself, and the best version of myself.

To the next item on the agenda, thank you for agreeing to keep my dog as ours. No, I don't have a dog yet, but yes, I am getting one in the very near future. I simply cannot wait any longer, and I also know that as my husband you will accept the fact that my dog is basically my life and soul and practically my child.

Thank you for still agreeing to marry me even after you saw me become the biggest Bridezilla in the world. Not that I'm saying I'm a mean person, but a girl's wedding is really one of the few things in life she has the right to be a complete monstor about, am I right? Girls start planning this very special day in our lives from the time when we are very young and don't even know that cooties aren't a real thing.

Lastly, thank you for being my support system. As a husband I would naturally expect for you to do things like, but not limited to: telling me my stupid ideas are the most brilliant ideas anyone has ever had, continuing to give me compliments even when I don't agree with them because I'll never see myself the way you do, for saying all the meals that I cooked were good, even the ones that were "new experiments", and finally, when I truly and physically cannot support anything else because the world is just too cruel and stressful, I'm thankful to have you by my side to take over the reins because in the end, life isn't fun when you're going at it alone.

Sincerely,

I've Already Picked Out The Flowers For The Tables

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.
