A Letter To My Future Husband's Parents

At the end of the day, I owe my whole life to you because you created my whole life.

Dear In-Laws,

When two people meet and fall in love, they usually owe it to the people who set them up or the grounds for which they met. But I don't think that is the reason I will have fallen in love with your son. The reason I have fallen in love with your son, and one day want to spend the rest of my life with him, is because of you.

To his mother, you have done the most. You have stood by him while other girls have broken your son's heart and I can imagine your heart is truly breaking too. You have taught him what it means to have manners and treat a lady, which is quite rare nowadays. You taught him how to love and I cannot be more grateful for him choosing to love me. You have given him care and kindness and he now reflects these things onto his own life. You have raised the man of my dreams.

To his father, you have taught him how to be a man and to be strong, but also when it's time to be weak. Thank you for always pushing him for brighter and better things. You have taught him the persistence of hard work and also the value of a dollar. The lessons he has learned from you has shaped him into the man he is now and I cannot thank you enough. You have been a wonderful role model for your son and I hope he can do just the same for our kids one day.

At the end of the day, I owe my whole life to you because you created my whole life. Thank you for changing my life and trusting me to do the same to your son. I promise to respect him and love him just as much as he has done to me. Thank you for taking a chance on me and for hoping I would not turn out like those other girls that broke your son's heart. Thank you for allowing me to date your son and ultimately allowing me to marry him. I promise to never take your son away from you, but to take you on our journey. It is never my place to take away your little snot-covered baby boy, but I know I will always love him and always be grateful for you. Thank you.

Sincerely,

I can't wait to meet you and your son.

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.
