An Open Letter To My Older Sister

An Open letter to my older sister,

If you have an older sister, consider yourself the luckiest person in the world. Having a sister to look up to is something to be extremely thankful for.

So big sis, if I don’t say it enough, thank you, thank you, thank you for...

Your closet:

I mean, this goes both ways, am I right? Thanks for always sharing, well maybe not sharing... but I stole it anyway. You are one stylish girl.

Playing mom:

There’s something so different about getting yelled at by your sister rather than your mom. It’s as if you disappointed a best friend. Thanks for always playing the mom role when necessary… and sometimes, it’s not necessary at all.

Always supporting me:

You’re the open ear. You’re the one person I can tell anything and everything to and you won’t judge. Well, maybe sometimes you’ll give me your cold hearted opinion, but sometimes that’s exactly what I need to hear.

Sharing your friends with me:

Your friends are my friends, and my friends are yours. I’m constantly going to your friends for advice and my friends know that they can always go to you. I know that your best friends are always there for me no matter what.

Boy Advice:

I don't think anyone knows me better than you do. You truly know what's good and bad for me. You know who has my heart, and you protect me from getting hurt, always. Whether it's a question on what to wear on a date or whether or not I should dump a guy, you always bring great advice to the table.

For being my role model:

This literally needs no explanation. I’ve been able to look up to you since day one. I will never stop admiring everything that you do.

I’m lucky to have a big sister, and even luckier to have one that I’m so close to. I couldn’t imagine my life without you in it, and I wouldn’t want to. Thanks for not only being my sister, but also being the greatest best friend I could ever ask for. I'm so proud to call you my big sis.

Much Love,

Your little 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.
