A Letter To My Best Friends And Their Mother

Everyone should have at least one best friend and I'm thankful that I have two.

A Letter To My Best Friends And Their Mother
Kirsten Holiman

Everyone should have at least one best friend to help them get through all the struggles of life. I am lucky enough to have two long-term best friends. We have come such a long way since 2009, my freshmen year of high school. To my two best friends mother: I cannot say thank you enough for these two girls; but, I'll say it again: thank you so much for your amazing girls. They sure do have some big hearts.




To my best friends: I love y'all very dearly and appreciate everything you do for me.



I'm so happy I have these two in my life, because they have been so good to me all these years. I'm so glad I've had such true friendship all these years
They were here for me through all the heartbreaks, all the terribly long nights, my mothers passing in 2014, my bouts with depression, me beginning college, me switching colleges, my two jobs, and me beginning a business in 2013, right after graduating high school.
They have been very supportive of every single decision I've made. They've listened to me as I've bawled my eyes out wondering, aloud what was so wrong with me. They are the people I send screenshots to saying "What do I say now?" Because, let's be honest, I never know what to say half the time.
They've been with me through every time I thought I wouldn't make it out of whatever was going on, because let's face it. I'm a drama queen. They are the ones I text or call in the middle of the night to ask questions to. They are the ones who know me better than I know myself. They know what's best for me when my mind is clouded and I know I'd make that bad decision.

I could not be more grateful for these two. They are the people I call when I need to be cheered up. They are the people I call with good and bad news. They are the people that get texts saying "SOS" over the littlest things.
They are the people I call when I need to be rescued from a disastrous date. They are the people I'd rather spend my Friday and Saturday nights with over hanging out with boys.
These are my people, and I'm dang sure proud of them.

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.
