My Mother Is My Best Friend

In honor of Mother's Day...

My Mother Is My Best Friend
Sabrina Galaviz

There are very few teenagers who can genuinely say their mother is their best friend. I am blessed enough to have an extremely strong relationship with the extremely strong woman I call my mom.

My mom is a warrior princess. There is no greater fitting term I can find for her than that. She is a champion and fighter above all. She has overcome great adversities while still maintaining a grace that so many people lack.

My mom is a mentor. She's an excellent leader. She has given me my communication and people skills, which I closely use in identifying who I am as person. Seeing her accomplish so much in academics and the work place has shown me all that I am capable of as well.

My mom is a comedian. She pulls goofy faces and jokes on the daily. There hasn't been a day of my life that she hasn't made laugh. We practically cry because we laugh so hard so frequently. We just click with our humor and silly way of speaking.

My mom is a woman I aspire to be. She has such wisdom and strength, such beauty and grace. I hope to imitate all of her best qualities, I know she's already passed many on to me. She does so much good for others and has always cared to her deepest capabilities.

My mom is a great comfort. She is the only person who has always been there for me. Anytime I need help or the tears came rolling down she was the one there. She was the one there every time I broke down. When I had no one else I had her.

My mom is my best friend. At the end of the day I will always have her. I miss her when we spend too much time apart. I cannot imagine a world without her. Shopping, playing cards, and binge watching the Gilmore Girls are pastimes reserved for her. We have a special way of communicating and spending time together that I wouldn't trade for the word. I love my mom.

Thank you for everything mom. Happy Mother's Day.

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.
