To My Mom On Her Birthday,

All my life you are all I’ve known. You have been there to support me, to guide me and to love me. You have been my biggest supporter and my biggest critic. You have held my hand when I needed you most and you have let me fly when I just needed to do my own thing. You have never let me down and for that, I am oh so grateful. You have put me first since the day you found out I was going to be born. You have made major sacrifices just to make sure I have the best life and the most amazing opportunities and for that, I will never be able to re pay you. As your birthday approaches, I have begun to realize how much my life would be different if you were not in it. For the past 4 years I have not been able to celebrate your birthday with you and for that, I am so sorry. You have never once been mad at me or upset that I have missed your birthday. You have never once made me feel like I was letting you down. We have had our fights and we have had our bad times but through it all, I would never want to have that with anyone else. You have worked so hard your whole life to make sure that we never missed out on anything life could throw at us.

So as your birthday approaches remember you deserve everything that is given to you on this day. You deserve all the love in the world. If I could hand you everything you’ve ever wanted just like you have for me I would. If I could make life easy for you I would. If I could be there for your birthday believe me I would. There are so many things I wish I could thank you for but the list would be never ending. So here on your birthday are just a few things I hope you know that I will be forever grateful for and I will spend my life trying to repay you.

1) Thank you for never letting opportunities pass me by

2) Thank you for always making me feel like I could accomplish anything and everything I wanted

3) Thank you for blessing me with an amazing sister and father

4) Thank you for always putting us first before yourself

5) Thank you for all the hard work you do everyday

6) Thank you for never getting mad when we don’t thank you enough

7) Thank you for always forgiving me even when I make huge mistakes

8) Thank you for pushing me hard enough but always knowing when there is only so much I can take

9) Thank you for giving me the most amazing life and never asking for anything in return

10) Thank you for being my best friend, my biggest supporter, my inspiration, my whole entire world and the best mom I could have ever imagined.

On your birthday mom, all I ask of you is to be selfish, do what you want to do, do what makes you happy and enjoy this day and everyday after. I love you to the moon and back. Your love is radiating and remember I am always so grateful.

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.
