An Open Letter to My Best Friend
Megan Fedey

Dear best friend,

I'm not sure entirely where to start with this letter so I guess a good place would be at the beginning when we first met in college.

When freshman year started, among the rest of our class, I was absolutely terrified. A million thoughts were rushing through my head like will I make friends? Will I be successful in my classes? Will I be happy here at school?

Well, with five weeks until graduation left I am happy to inform you that the answer to all three of those questions is, yes.

The friendship we have is beyond unique and unlike any friendship I've ever had. It is practically indescribable.

Between long talks about mistakes made in past relationships, future plans about masters degrees, God and our main hobbies which include eating and cuddling, I feel like there is absolutely nothing that I can't come to you with.

For all those late nights turned into early mornings, quoting random Youtube video's until we rush into the bathroom to save ourselves from further embarrassment...if that is even possible?

I guess what I am trying to say is thank you...

Thank you for making me laugh, creating what I am imagining should soon turn into a 6-pack of abs relatively soon...any minute now?

Thank you for being such a good cook and sharing your guacamole during those monthly gifts which don't feel at all like gifts

Thank you for being my second set of eyes when I just have no clue what to wear on dates number's 1, 2, 3, 4 and so on...

Thank you for listening to me when I have no clue what I am doing with the rest of my life and think I hate my major and want to join the Peace corps

Thank you for banging on my door until I open it when I shut you out because you and I both know I need you there to listen

These past college years wouldn't have been remotely as life changing and memorable without you. Forgetting about the stupid cat fights and silly mistakes made on both of our ends is effortless when I think back on the countless wonderful memories we have had together. I love you to pieces and can't wait to be the God Mother of Mackenzie and Aidan <3

As always, stay beautiful and keep reading....

Your gal pal,

xoxo

P.S. lets make sure the jam sessions never end, even when we are 80 and can only move one limb at a time.

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.
