To My Not So Little, Little Sister
Ashley Jordan

Yeah hi this is your big sister, the one who you think knows nothing. Well I’m going to let you in on a little secret, I’ve been where you are before. Everything that you are going through I’ve lived through it first, a few years ago, but I have been through it. I know you think that I’m just the mean older sister who knows nothing and just is there to be mean. But that is not true, it is the opposite.

I’m there to protect you from the bad that is in the world, I’m there to be there when the stupid boy breaks your heart and most of all I’m there to love you. I know that all that seems impossible but it is true. I’m the older one, therefore I’m the test drive for mom and dad. They were just learning things with me, but with you it’s the real deal, they’re pros now. I know you block me on things because whatever reason, but that’s not cool dude. I worry about you and like to be a part of your life through social media since I can’t be there in person, but I can’t when you block me on things. I get it, I get it, you think I’ll go tell mom or make fun of you for it. When in reality I probably will tell mom but only because we have the best mom who is super easy to talk to.

I know that you’re at that age where I’m the not cool older sister who knows nothing and all that jazz. But really, I do know some things, I mean not everything, but some pretty cool things. I try to tell you and teach you and hopefully some day you will see that I am just trying to help you because I love you. I also know that it may seem like you’re alone in all this, but remember you’re not. Everything that you have been through I have been through too. So, next time you think that I’m not here to help, remember that I am. I am your biggest advocate and will always be here to be on your team and to help you through life.

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.
