A Love Letter To My Texas Women: May We Know One, Love One, And Be One
Vanity Fair

This is to you Doll,

This is for the women that are from the south and go down there often. These women have a light in their eyes that strikes just about every guy. The women that walk into the room with a presence that is unmistakable to every man and woman. The women that are loud and proud at happy hours. These women say “No” in a way that shows both wit and grit. The women that dance with strangers at the bar and show up at church the next morning. These are my Texas women.

I admire them. I think of them often. Here’s to you ladies! Cheers at the next happy hour to my words that are to follow.

Southside

For you, my lady, have much more up your sleeve then what is shown in your general PDA. For whatever guy make get you, may he be ready to handle your boisterous side. The side that enjoys and thrives in the act of the wild thing. She isn’t afraid to make her way down south, instead she enjoys finding her way there often.

The Look

You don’t even see the color in her eyes. Instead you see the intensity that they hold. This woman is able to give you all you need with a sudden glance that turns into a stare. Ask her, “What you lookin’ at.” Her response is sure to be, “You.”

Presence Is A Present

This woman walks in and the crowd literally stops and stares. To some people she even may seem exotic. Her energy is able to permeate the audience and everyone wants to get a little bit closer. People may ask where she is from, what is she carrying among her being that catches everyone’s attention. Then they will realize that it is just her. The present in itself is her presence. She holds it all.

Blue Goose Margs

You know a girl from Texas because she uses the term "marg" as her name for the all time favorite drink, The Margarita. The girls can usually be found at the Blue Goose chain for margaritas at happy hour. Sangria swirl? Yes please, bartender.

Wit Accompanied With Grit

These southern women will let you know how it is. They will say “No,” in a way that will make you swoon even more as well as feel like you were just slapped. This is the only way they are able to keep the good ole’ boys at bay. Keep trying mister, I promise she is worth it.

Sweet Baby Jesus

Lord have mercy. Southern women will hit the town on Thursdays and Saturday nights. Watch out, buddy. Flasks will be found in bras, members of the group will be on the bar and before you know it they will be fresh faced (okay that’s an exaggeration), more like they will be faced with church in the morning. These ladies will proudly be praying to their higher power.

To all of you Texas women that I know personally, I love you. I love everything about you. It is over the top, all things lovely and you are everything I hope to be as a woman. I look forward to our next happy hour where we pass around assorted flavors of margaritas and flash pictures of our hot men.

Much Love,

K

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.
