Dearest lovely bed,

I don't even know where to start. I have left you for college, but now I am back. I missed you a lot. I'm sure you felt lonely the past nine months. I'm sorry. This isn't what this letter is about. I would like to remind you why you are so amazing.

Thank you for being big enough for me to actually move during the night. You are a queen size and I'm glad you're big. You are so much better to sleep on than my bed in college. I can sleep across you and I don't have to stay bunched up all night. I can fit two people on you and still have room, it is truly amazing. When I saw you for the first time I ran and jumped on you because I was so happy to see you. You have no idea.

I know I'm lazy. I lay in you for hours at a time. I spill food on you or maybe a drink. I'm sorry, I will wash you. Eventually. I am usually watching Netflix. I know I should be doing other things but I never want to leave you. You are just so warm and comfy. Why would I leave when outside is freezing? Maybe because I am crazy and live in Minnesota.

I am literally sitting in bed while writing this. I do almost everything in bed. I eat, read, watch TV, and yes, even think about life all while relaxing on you. I'm so thankful that you never judge me for all the times I cry and laugh until I can't breathe into your covers. You have heard conversations no one else should ever hear. You are literally my best friend. You understand me better than anyone. I could marry you if that was acceptable in today's society.

You always accept other people to sleep with you as well. I know it is a lot of weight on you but my friends need a place to sleep as well. Thank you for being big enough for me and my friends to sleep. I know we keep you up all night with our talks and our late-night cravings. Again, I'm sorry for all the crumbs that stay there for weeks at a time. For all the tears we have shared together about leaving for college and finals, you were there.

You are also where I can keep clean clothes when I don't want to put them away. Mostly because I don't have time to put them away. You can hold all my papers and books on them while I try to study for a test. You can do so many things. I don't think you realize how important you are to me. So I just want to say I love you and I would be really tired if you weren't in my life.

So, on a final note, I want you to know that I appreciate you everything you do for me. You always welcome me with an open spot. You are always there after a long day and when I just need a three-hour cat nap. Thank you for being you. I love you.

Love,

Your owner/ companion

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.
