To My No Matter What People

There are best friends and then there are your No-Matter-Whats

To My No Matter What People
Anna Jordan

They say there are no guarantees in life, which is true but for me not the case. In my life I can guarantee that if I were to call either of my best friends they would answer. You see I got deeply inspired to write this about my friends when I saw a post on Instagram that really hit home.

"Everybody has a home team: It's the people you call when you get a flat tire or when something terrible happens. It's the people who, near or far, know everything that's wrong with you and love you anyways. These are the ones who tell you their secrets, who get themselves a glass of water without asking when they're at your house. These are the people who cry when you cry. These are your people, your middle-of-the-night, no-matter-what people."

I could name story after story about my friends and I, unfortunately for you all I am going to most between the few of us.

So this is for you Anna and Rylie. I feel like we go through this everyday because between the three of us we are a very big mess but we wouldn't be us without that mess. I know I can laugh and joke with you guys about some random I met over the weekend and there be no judgment. I know that when any one of us says I want Starbucks it really isn't a suggestion it's more of a 'Are we getting in Fern, Camy or Allen' question. We have our moments of wild and crazy but in the end we keep each other grounded. I act dumb for whatever reason one or the other is going be like 'Yeah no, not happening', and that works each way for the three of us.

I cannot thank either of you enough for loving me everyday even though I am sorta an odd ball. I know that when we are all old and spread across this world we are going to look back on our time together and just die from laughter, I mean for goodness sake we do that now over something that could've happened 5 minutes ago, 5 hours ago or 5 days ago.

I love that when any one of us is mildly stressed (all the time) we just are like dude lets go on the swings and we end up swinging and singing at the top of our lungs what ever song we both know. I love that we can sit down and help each other do homework, unless it is math then that is all you Anna!

You two are unforgettable no matter what day, or time, I know and can trust that you are going to be there and that is something not many get the chance to experience in life, I am so grateful to you both every day.

Let's raise our glasses to our no matter whats because in the end through wild football games and lazy nights I know that you will always be there.

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.
