Welcome to the family! As you have already learned, and will continue to learn, my family is an extremely loud swarm of chaos. And by marrying my brother you are accepting us and loving us just the same.

And that makes you a brave women.

My family is hard to handle and it can be intimidating at times, but we welcome you with open arms. You are now one of us, crazy people. Enjoy the weird.

My brother has been the one person who I have looked up to more than anyone else. We love him and will do anything for him. And we know you would too.

As you also already know, my brother is a picky and difficult person. Which makes him who he is, and is another reason why we love that weirdo. But that means you are now the main person who has to deal with his stubbornness.

Good luck! I know you can do it though.

My brother loves you more than he has ever loved anybody else. You have his whole heart, please treat it with care and protect it with my life.

Love him with all your heart. Love him more than you love yourself. Love him when he is happy. Love him when he is angry. Love him through his highs and lows. Love him even when he is not acting very lovable. Everyone gets that way sometimes.

As your sister-in-law, I promise to be there for you and help you through your life with my brother. I will be there to keep him busy when you need a day to yourself. I will stand by you guys and watch you grow together.

My family welcomes you with open arms, you have made my brother so happy and that makes us happy.

Your life together is about to begin, and I know the journey will be a long one. There may be bumps along the way but I know you two will get over them with the help of each other.

My new sister-in-law, welcome to the family. Sit back and enjoy the circus. It's going to be a long and fun ride.

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.
