An Open Letter To My Friendships

To my new friends,

Sometimes in life, people walk in and out like it's no big deal and nothing special to them. Things are always changing, people always change, and losing a friend who knows your life inside and out is probably one of the worst feelings or experiences to go through. Life works in it's ways and you just might cross paths with someone over a common interest, or maybe because you want to go out of your way to meet new people.

You start getting to know each other, figuring out more things you have in common, making new memories, and you wonder where this person has been your whole life! They become the person who knows you inside and out and still loves you for you. This person, or new group of friends, make you rethink the way you let people treat you and they give you a whole new look on life in a different perspective.

You become a new person and begin to get caught up in wanting to spend time with them to take your mind off of the old memories, and replace them with brand new memories and adventures ahead. You begin to do things that you never thought you would have the chance to do, you just adventure out and explore because you can, and stay up all night because why not? We discover new things together, and new things about each other every day.

Spending time with these people just make you so much happier and your whole mood can change in a second just by getting a text from them. You realize that they are the people in this world that you can laugh with, cry with, go out in public looking like a guy with, and they still choose to call you their best friend. That is what I call goals.

I can't thank these people enough for walking into my life at a more perfect time, and letting me see who true friends are. Every day life throws you curve balls, but to have people by your side who are there to catch you when you're falling is truly a blessing. You all have brought such amazing things to my life and I wouldn't want it to be any other way.

When a light is put on you in your life you realize what you had before was such a toxic exposure and these new friends have brought such amazing things; they could truly be your friends forever. Thank you for showing me what it is like to have amazing friends that would do anything and go beyond measure for you. I can't even begin to picture or imagine my life without you all and I will always be so grateful for everything that we all have. Life works in mysterious ways and sometimes it will take a loss to gain something truly amazing.

Love always,

Jess

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.
