A Love Letter To My Bed

To my cuddle buddy.

A Love Letter To My Bed
Imperial College London

Bed,

We've been together for years now. In that time, you've done a lot for me, but I feel like I haven't told you what you mean to me. That's going to change right now.

I don't know what I'd do without you. You're always there for me, through the good and the bad. You've been a comfort that no one else could ever be or replace. I've spent quite a few nights wrapped in your warm embrace, not wanting to leave, and you've never objected.

We've spent some great nights together. Watching movies, reading books and, of course, eating a lot of snacks. I'm sorry for all the crumbs, but I always clean you up. I appreciate you dealing with me and my ever-present mess.

Even when I don't need you, I know you're waiting for me to come back to you. You always give me the right amount of love to make me feel a little less lonely and sad. You also bring me extreme joy, especially at the end of a long day. Those are the days that I never want to leave you.

Unfortunately, morning always comes. The mornings are the hardest. I hate having to leave you and I know you feel the same. Every morning I lay with you, debating if it's acceptable for me to stay with you all day instead of going to school or work. I curl up in the safety of your warmth, eyes closed, in the hopes that it's actually 4 a.m. so I can fall back asleep in your embrace.

Eventually, though, I will get up and leave the sheets to grow cold in my absence. I'll brave the day, my mind wandering to you at various points. Sometimes I'll even count down the hours until I can rush back. I know you don't like it when I leave, but you know that I'll come back at night, and just lay with you until I fall asleep once more.

You mean so much to me. Without you, I'd forever be grouchy and miserable. Thank you so much for all that you do, and I hope you know that I love you with all my heart. I promise to stop dropping crumbs all over you.

Forever and always,

Your Cuddle Buddy

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.
