To my wonderful nana,

I don't know what I would do without you, you mean everything to me. You are so much more to me than just my nana, you are my support system. When things go wrong you're always there to help me fix them. You support me in everyway you can even though we're four hours apart. You have been there for me ever since I was born and I can't thank you enough. You do so much for me and I am so grateful. I don't knowwhere I would be today if it was not for your love and kindess. Growing up, you taught me so many things without knowing. 

You taught me to never give up. If you really wanted something, you wouldn't stop looking for it. Even if it was something as simple as a shirt, if you liked it you'd go to every target in the area until you found it. It may seem silly but you going out and about to get that shirt you wanted taught me so much. Just beause one place didn't have it in your size another would. Just like if yor really want to do something in life, do it. Don't just give up if a place turns you down or something didn't flow right, try again.

You taught me to stand up for myself and the people I love. I have seen you stand up for me and other people in our family. I admire you so much for that beacause it is not always easy. You have no problem doing it though. If you think someone is being treatly unfairly, you have no problem standing up for them and making sure someone is always in their corner. 

You taught me how to shop. Honestly not sure if this is a good or bad things but I consider you and I to be proshoppers. We can go shopping all day until we find what we really want. We don't give up until we got everything we wanted and needed. Sometimes we even shopping for some retail therapy which helps so much with stress from college. 

You taught me to help others when they need it. You help me all the time especially right now with everything going on. You help everyone and anyone if they ask because that is just the kind of person you are. You are sweet, you are kind and you are caring. You have helped me when I needed winter clothes, school supplies, and food so I don't always have to eat the crappy school food. You even try to help me figure out everything with school and do your best to help me over all the obstacles I'm hit with.

You have always done so much for me, I hope to do the same for you one day. You inspire me everyday to keep going and push through. You help me when things get rough and remind me everything will get better. Many people say I am lucky to have someone like you in my life and they're right. You are so much more than just a grandmother to me. You are my stability, you are my rock. I couldn't do this without you. I am so thankful to be able to call you my nana. You are the most amazing person I have ever met. Thank you for always loving me and supporting me through everything. I love you to the moon and back.

Love,

Cyn

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.
