A Letter to My Ex-Bestie

Dear Ex-best friend,

I cannot believe that we have reached this point. I can’t believe I haven't spoken to you or seen you in this long. We do not talk anymore and you are almost a stranger to me. If we talk at all, it is awkward and I can't bare to sit through the conversation for any longer than a few minutes. I hate that we ended like we did and sometimes I get sad thinking of the bad times. I remember the days when we used to laugh and talk every day. I would tell you everything that happened to me and you would do the same. We would be so silly and goofy together and talked about being the godparents of each other’s children. It's crazy how things change. I miss you and hope that you are doing well. I honestly sometimes even find myself wanting to call you but quickly remember the degree of our relationship.

I thank you for being there for me when I needed you, when I needed a shoulder to cry on, or when I needed a great laugh. You were the support system I needed away from home and you encouraged me to do a lot of things that I never believed I could do. You believed in me when all odds were against me and I thank you so much for that. I’ll never forget the memories we shared and will always remember the good times over the bad. My mom always tells me that sometimes God sends people in your life just for a little bit and they serve a special purpose. I guess you served your purpose in my life and I served mine in yours.

Part of me wishes that none of this ever happened and we could just go back to the way things used to be. However, I know that i simply not possible. Too much has come in between and we could never be the same. I miss coming to your house and binge watching Orange is the New Black all night and eating all of the food in the house. I even miss talking to your family because they were like my second family. Your home was my second home. You were honestly my sister and we had a seemingly unbreakable bond. But clearly everything is not what it seems.

Lastly, I forgive you for everything that you’ve ever done to me and I sincerely apologize for anything that I have done to you. I know that you were a true friend at some point and your intentions were good. I hope that you are living a happy life and succeeding in everything you want to do. I know you have a prosperous future because I've seen your growth throughout the years of our friendship. You are a great person but I have come to terms that you were just not a great person for me. I wish you a long and successful life.

Sincerely,

Your Ex-Bestie

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.
