An Open Letter To My Little As I Graduate

How lucky I am to have something that makes saying goodbye so hard. -A. A. Milne

An Open Letter To My Little As I Graduate
Kayce Davis

Dear Littlest,

You are by far one of the best things that happened to me these past 4 years (other than getting my perfect big). Leaving you is going to be harder than having to deal with my big when she left because I am the one who is doing the leaving. My experience in Delta Zeta would not have been the same without you. I am so glad I jumped head first into the role of being your big. I think the best thing about our relationship is the fact we weren't instantly connected, in the way people think "big/little" should be. We had our bumps in the road but it led us to where we are today and I wouldn't change it for the world. Getting to know you, your likes and dislikes, your favorite things and everything else. I had met you once, but you (for whatever reason) thought I would make a good big to you. I was ready, I was willing and I couldn't have been happier.

Big/Little week was so much fun to get to trick you and throw you off, all the while knowing you would be running to me come Friday. These past few years with you have been nothing short of amazing. From social, to formal, to chapters, to retreats, games, Thursday nights, birthdays and everything else. You are my best friend, my confidant and my rock.

Thank you for always being there for me, never judging me and always telling me like it is. You may not know it but you have taught me so much about life. You helped me grow in myself because you are literally like my child. I love your heart and the way you care for others. You are truly beautiful inside in and out. You are one of a kind and any man would be lucky to have you.

When I graduate always remember that I am only a phone call/text/ snap chat away. I will never leave you. You are stuck with me for the rest of our lives. Your last semester without me is going to be easier than you think because you are strong, and you have Gee. You two will have each other and hopefully a Gee of your own someday. I know when my big left I was lost to find my way, but then you came along and made everything okay again. Luckily for you, you already have a little of your own to help. I am going to miss you and Gee tremendously. Maybe we will both get lucky enough to go to Charlotte and room together for grad school.

I really cannot put into enough words the joy you bring me and the happiness you bring to my life. The only thing making it semi-easy is the fact that this isn't a goodbye, just a see you later.

I love you and all that you are little one.

Love,

Your Big.

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.
