A Love Letter To My Best Friends

Because you've been there for me through it all.

A Love Letter To My Best Friends
Gabrielle Sisino

They say if you're friends with someone for more than seven years, the friendship will last a lifetime. I know that's true because, at this point, you've seen me through too many awkward stages to ever leave. You have been there for me through the good, bad, and just flat out fugly- and for some reason, you never left my side. Physically we've all gone different directions, but no distance, not matter how big or small, will ever actually separate us. When we come back together, it's like no time has passed and we pick up right where we left off. And that's what I love the most about you guys.

I trust you with everything and any judgment passed is only with my best interest in mind. Any disagreements we have can be easily solved with sushi, coffee, or fro-yo, but usually a combination of the three. At the end of the day, we end up very full and laughing so hard we forgot anything was ever wrong. Not that we've ever had a real argument, I'm not sure we take each other seriously enough to have one. I honestly can't think of a time we were actually mad at each other, I think we're just really hangry people.

Our friendship, like any good one, is all about balance. Our personalities never clash even though they're different. We balance each other out, each contributing a different kind of crazy to the friendship. We just get each other, knowing exactly what the other means when we're struggling for words. I know that when I'm having one of those days where every little thing makes me want to slam my head into the wall, I just have to text you to know you're feeling the exact same way. It's a beautiful, terrifying friendship and I wouldn't trade it for the world.

I'm so unbelievably lucky to have people in my life who understand the importance of Long Island pizza and brunch and accept me as the kind of person who spends $11 on froyo and cries about it for a little but never regrets it. You will never know how much I truly appreciate you and the fact that you laugh at all the stupid things I say. I don't know what I did to deserve the best friends in the entire world but I'm pretty damn grateful that I have you, and even more grateful that we made it this long without killing each other.

Thank you for loving me unconditionally, even when I'm moody, and for being equally caffeine dependant and hangry as I am. I can't imagine my life without you and I never want to. We'll be by each other sides through every up and down, making the best out of every mediocre situation, and laughing until we cry. Boys come and go, but you guys are forever.

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.
