The Truth About Having A Guardian Angel

A letter to the person I carry with me everyday.

Dear Angel,

Quite some time has passed since you left us, it's honestly hard to believe that you are gone. The one thing that I regret is not telling you how much I appreciated you. I never got the chance to say thank you for everything you did for me.

I was so lucky to have such an admirable person in my life for the amount of time that I did. During that time you taught me things that you probably didn't even know you were teaching me. You taught me how to be strong during the difficult times. you taught me how to be brave when all I was scared. You taught me how to love harder than I ever thought was possible.

Although you're not here to see all that I have done, I know that you are proud of me. You always encouraged me to do what I love, that's why everything that I am doing, I am doing for you. You were one of my biggest supporters. You were one of my best friends. You were the anchor that kept this family grounded.

Although some things are different now, the one thing that remains the same is your presence. Although you can not physically be here with us, I know you are spiritually here. I know you are watching over us as we all make important steps in our lives. I know you are rooting for us when we decide to take the road less traveled upon.

I'll admit, some days are harder than others and I'm still learning how to cope with you being gone. I know that you are always by my side helping me get through those tough moments, and I thank you for that. Losing you was one of the hardest things I have ever had to go through but it made me a stronger person.

Thank you for leaving a lifelong impact on me. Thank you for being the person you were. Thank you for always loving me no matter what. I am so lucky to have such an amazing person as my guardian angel.

I love you, I miss you, and I can't wait to see you again one day.

Love always,

Your biggest fan

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.
