There is always that friend that you love but you could strangle at any moment.

An Open Letter To A Dear Friend.

Let's face it, we all have "that friend." You know the one that everyone loves to death and couldn't imagine their life without, but could also strangle them at any point in time? Yes, that one. Some will relate to this letter and instantly think of their friend who I am writing about, others, may realize it's them. No worries, though, we love you.

Dear friend,

I honestly don't know what I would do without you. Sometimes I get selfish and greedy and don't thank you enough for all that you do for me. You're always there when I need you and all the times I don't. You see that's where I go wrong, I don't thank you for the times that I don't think I need you, but you know I do. You can be a lot to handle sometimes, but that's not always a bad thing. Yes, you are super loud and make the dumbest jokes. Yet, you'll always find me laughing or fighting back a smile when I tell you that I hate you. Which, we both know isn't true. Your humor is too much for me and I often feel like I am getting an ab workout when all we did was go get food and walk around Walmart. Oh, speaking of, no one finds more weird things to do in Walmart to get us kicked out than you do. So that's a plus, I think.

Honestly, I could really strangle you sometimes, for the things you say or do. But at the end of the day, you were either being honest with me or it doesn't matter that much. Only I can call you funny names or be super blunt with you, if anyone else tries it they'll need an ambulance. Guess you're kind of like my sibling that way. Where it's more like a love/hate relationship but the hate isn't real. Thank you for all of the late night talks, daytime exploring, evening activities that we never knew we were getting into until we were too deep to turn back. Thank you for being spontaneous and always down to have a good time. Keep being loud, if you were quite it just wouldn't be the same. That's the thing is you're perfect the way you are. We are going to get into stupid petty fights but at the end of the day, there is no one else I would rather spend all my spare time with. Stay crazy!

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.
