My Best Friend -- My Brother.

Why my best friend is my brother

My Best Friend -- My Brother.
Pierce Bijeau

1. The Connection.

Since day one, my brother and I have been inseparable. Having a single mother, Blair and I had to do a lot of things together and stick together. Every day after school, we would sit and play together while our mom was at work. For us, this time was more than just a pastime. It was our time together to play and be kids before we had to go home and start homework and chores. All the while, we did it together.

2. The Protector.

He may be my "little" brother but he definitely doesn't fit that description anymore. He does not hesitate to cut down anyone who tries to hurt me physically or emotionally. I deem this only fair because as children, I tried to protect him as best I could. He will always be my protector and will always take care of me when I need him. We may be almost two hours away from each other now, but the time or the miles away mean nothing when you have a sibling that means so much to you and would do anything for you.

3. The Goofball.

Many of you know Blair already as the "goofball." He is definitely that. I can't tell you how many countless nights that my family and I have TRIED to sit down and have a meal together but we can't because we're crying from laughing so hard. Most of you know me so you know that nearly anything can make me laugh, but you honestly have not heard or seen anything until you've seen me laugh at something Blair says. Even just a look can get me laughing.

4. The Ease.

I have a really hard tIme talking to people and opening up, but with Blair I have no problem. He won't judge me or tear me down. He helps me through my problems and I can't wait to help him with his... if he ever had any. He's very good at being a really good brother.

5. My Inspiration.

I could not imagine my life without my baby brother. He pushes me to be a better person; not only for myself, but for my family as well. Blair is a true gentleman and someone who I know will treat any woman like the queen she deserves to be treated as. And because I've seen how he treats women, I know that I deserve way more than what I give myself credit for. He inspires me each and every day. I don't think you can ask any more than that from anyone.

I love you so much, Blair.

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.
