​You were by my side at my lowest, and lifted me back up to my highest.

To the girl who's never left my side,

I have always been a firm believer in God placing people in our lives when we need them most. You were luckily placed into mine when I was at my lowest and managed to lift me up higher than ever. Since that day, you've been one of the biggest blessings in my life.

I've told you countless times how much of an impact you've had on me and I think everyone around me knows it, too. You changed my life for the better and helped me see my true potential when I couldn't see it myself. I could go on for hours reminding you of all the things you've done for me, but no words could ever describe how thankful I am for you.

You are the person who I know I can turn to at all times with anything-- and I mean anything. Countless nights I felt like my world was collapsing around me and you were right there, by my side, telling me everything would be okay. You keep me sane; you remind me of my worth; you believe in me when I don't believe in myself. You are the person I know I can text or call at any time and that you'll stop everything just to help me sort through whatever crisis I'm dealing with at the time. I can't thank you enough for that.

Out of all the people I have ever met, I can confidently say you're one of the most selfless and caring ones. You have the power to accomplish anything and everything you dream of. You're inspiring. I hope one day to be half the person you are, and to be able to give you as much as you give to me. I wish to have a heart as golden as yours is. Anyone who fails to realize what a blessing you are isn't worth a second of your time. You deserve all the love in the world, and to be surrounded by people who will give you nothing less than that. Don't settle for anything less than the best because you deserve nothing but the best.

I know that things in my life will get hard and life won't always be easy-- but, I also know that I will always have you by my side: through every bump in the road, fighting along side my in every battle, for the rest of my life, I know you will be there. I truly admire you for all that you are, and all that you've become in the years I've known you. I'm so proud to tell people that you are my best friend-- my person.

Thank you for wiping away the tears, being a shoulder to cry on, for being my voice of reason, for making me laugh, the late night adventures, the endless memories and for all the love you've never stopped giving. Thank you for being the best friend I could possibly wish for.

I love you more than you know.

XO,

Your best friend

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.
