Thank you for everything.

A Letter To My Little Sisters (And All The Little Sisters Out There)
Hannah Coffaro

“Sister. She is your mirror, shining back at you with a world of possibilities. She is your witness, who sees you at your worst and best, and loves you anyway. She is your partner in crime, your midnight companion, someone who knows when you are smiling, even in the dark. She is your teacher, your defense attorney, your personal press agent, even your shrink. Some days, she's the reason you wish you were an only child." -Barbara Alpert.

I know it’s tough having such an amazing sibling to look up to (cough cough) and have the way paved for you with my very own blood, sweat, and tears.

But in reality, I would like to get serious and dedicate this article to you. My own personal mini me's that have loved and supported me through it all.


First, You are so freaking beautiful. I am so lucky to have you as my little sister. When people say that we look alike It is one of the biggest compliments.

Second, I am so insanely proud of you. You have faced some really difficult stuff that most people don’t have to face in their lifetime and still you wake up every day and kick ass. I am so proud of all the little things you do and I will never stop being the loudest person cheering you on.

Third, that guy is a total douche, so please don’t speak to him again. Why would you waste your time on boys when there are men to be found! Don't settle for a guy that only wants a booty call. You are so much better than that.

Juno's dad said it best: "the best thing you can do is find a person who loves you for exactly what you are. Good mood, bad mood, ugly, pretty, handsome, what have you, the right person is still going to think the sun shines out of your ass. That's the kind of person that's worth sticking with."

Fourth, Sorry I take all your stuff. Think of it as a compliment. I have phenomenal taste so you must be doing something right. Please don’t take any of my things though. It’s only cool when I am the one getting the stuff.

Fifth, never give up. Please don’t ever give up on your dreams. Don't give people the power to tear you down and take away your confidence. Don’t give up on the things that make you happy and don’t change yourself for anyone.

"Never let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game" -Babe Ruth.

Thank you for being the best friend that any person could ever ask for. I don't know what I would do without you. Thank you for all the phone calls and late night texts. Thank you for listening to me complain for what probably felt like hours and not being to mad when I eat all your leftovers. I am so ridiculously lucky.

Love you with all my heart,

Your Big Sister

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.
