I can't say thank you enough.

A Thank You Letter To My Two Amazing Parents
Madison Masterson

My Two Biggest Supporters,

Now I'm gonna start this by saying I can't thank you guys for everything you've done for me or this would be 10 billion pages long. But I am going to thank you both for not only being the best parents but also being the best role models, biggest supporters, and best friends. Don't get me wrong we fight a lot, but through everything in my life the only two people that never left my side and the only two people I knew would always be there are you two.

With my medical problems stacked up as high as the sky and my loud mouth that can't keep anything a secret I haven't been the easiest child in the world. My high school years were by far the worst of the worst and yet somehow we made it through those. Throughout my life there have been very many ups and downs, our lives have been like a rollercoaster and sometimes that rollercoaster gives me a headache and I liked to take it out on those around me, for that I am sorry.

Now I still don't agree with everything you guys say and do but throughout life I have learned that the things you say and do, in your mind, are the best things for me. We have very different opinions on things and that will most likely never change. I honestly used to believe that some of the things you would say to me was because you wanted to hurt me or because you didn't want me to go for my dreams but in all honestly I know the world is a difficult place to be and I know in your mind saying these things would just make me more successful in life. I know you guys are the two most caring people I have ever met.

Though I have and most likely still will do things throughout my life that you disagree with, I just want to let you know that I am so thankful for everything you do for me. I will always go for my dreams and I know even though sometimes you may not agree with my choices, you will always be there right by my side.

Though things you do annoy me at times, I hear the love in every word you say to me. I realize how much you give up on a daily basis. From financially supporting me to allowing me to do things that may not be the best for my future because you know it will make me happy.

I am so thankful for the both of you and just wanted to let you know that I love you guys so much and if I had the choice to pick my parents I would pick the both of you. I love hearing all of your stories and love watching you both when you're really happy. There are so many things in life that many take for granted but I really do appreciate all the little things and love all of both of your quirks.

Though I know I can't say all I love and appreciate about you, I thought I'd give it a try.

Mom, I love scaring you to death and watching you get mad at me but slightly smile because you know you would do the same(even though you never get me).

Dad, I love watching you in the car jamming out to all of my songs.

Mom, I love watching how happy planting flowers and decorating makes you.

Dad, I truly appreciate when you stay up all hours of the night to help me with school work.

Mom, I truly appreciate when you talk for me in public because you know how scary it is for me.

I just want to let you both know I love you to death and appreciate the both of you more than you could ever imagine. Thank you for being the best parents in the whole wide world.

Thank you for being you.

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.
