Letter To My Love I Am Leaving For College
Odyssey

My Love,

I can't believe the time has come where we part our separate ways. I start my journey in a completely new place without the person I have been experiencing all my "news" with. I cannot begin to understand what my life is going to be like a thousand miles away from you. I am going to go from being with you almost everyday, carrying out our daily routine, to relying on video chat in order to be able to see you.

Life with you has been amazing. You helped me grow as a person, take chances, and most importantly you taught me how to love someone unconditionally. I became a better version of myself through being with you, thank you. You have been there for me through all the ups and downs of my senior year, from helping me study to hearing me complain, you were my person. You are my person. Taking on this transition I need my person, and I am thankful you are willing to be there through it all with me, no matter the outcome.

It's hard to leave you behind. Especially your family. I love your family. They welcome me as their own and never make me uncomfortable in any situation. It's nice to be shown off as "your girl" to them and all of your friends. I have never wanted to be the girlfriend your friends hate and I am thankful I am not one of them. I know I have taken up your time, and claimed you every weekend, but I hope you're looking back and thinking you wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else but sleeping next to me.

I am going to miss waking up in the middle of the night to you next to me. No matter the arguments we have had or the disagreements, we have always been strong enough to get through them and move on. That is what I like the most about you. The faith and potential you see in me and our relationship has carried me through the good and the bad. I will miss you like crazy.

Doing all of the lasts, such as your last time sleeping over, last time holding me and the last time kissing me, I realize the love I have for you. I promise to never forget you, no matter what the future holds for us. I know we will never let misery get the best of us, and that we will see the positives in whatever out come God has for us. We have talked about a future together for so long, and I hope that it happens because I would love to grow old with you, have kids with you, and see the world with you. Just know you will always be my first love. This journey will be hard, but we got this. I promise to only call you crying about three times a week.

Love you so much,

Your Girlfriend

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.
