Dear Daughter,

I want to tell you something. Something so important that I'm writing this years before are born. First, I want you to know that you will always be loved no matter what. Even through all the fights we will have and the "I Hate You's," I will love you to the end of the earth. I promise to always fight in your corner with you so you never feel like you have to take on the world alone. Second,I promise to teach you that it's okay to be yourself and to love who you are. I hope you never feel as if you aren't worthy enough because you are.

I promise to buy you ice cream and cry with you over you're first break-up. I also promise to come to every sporting event, choir concert, and everything in between. You'll have some of the most amazing siblings around and the hardest working and loving parents. I promise to teach you to stand up for other people when no one else is doing it and I hope you'll be friends with the "underdogs" just like your mom was. You won't ever feel like you can only depend on a man to do things for you. You will be strong and independent. My final promise is that you'll become such amazing women, that you'll be able to pass these values onto your own daughters.

With Love,

Your Mom

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
