An Open Letter To My Sister While I'm At College

Hey Sissy,

I miss you more than words could ever and will ever describe. Life without you is so hard, and I miss your ray of sunshine in my day every day. It's so hard to not see you every day and tell you how my day was and hear how exciting yours was and how much fun you had at school. I wish I could see you every day and just hear your voice. I want you to know that no matter what, you'll always be my best friend. No matter how many holidays I will be missing in the next years, always know that it's not because of you.

You're the reason I do everything that I do. Whenever I'm about to quit, I always think of you and then I know that I can do it and get through the day. You're the reason I work as hard as I do because I know that you would want me to, and I know that you are my biggest fan. I would never want to let you down. I want you to know that if things are hard, I'm just a phone call away, and I'll make sure I'm right there to help you get through any bad times. Any boy, school, or friend troubles and everything in between. Having you here with me would be ideal because then I wouldn't have to miss you so much, but I know that I have to let you spread your wings and fly, and I won't be the thing that holds you back. I have videos saved on my phone of my most favorite moments with us, and they help on the rough days and they make me smile when I really need it.

Thank you for taking care of Mom and Dad while I'm gone. I know they miss me too, and I know how sappy Mom can get, and you're the best at making them laugh even though I'm supposed to be the funny one. I'm always known to those who don't know us as your sister and that used to bug me because I wasn't my own person, but I'm glad that I now know that having that title is the best possible title known to man and I'm so happy to be known as the person who is your sister, pain in the butt, and very best friend. I don't want you to think that I left you, because I hate seeing you upset and I would never leave you ever. You mean more than the world to me and I miss you so much it hurts. I can't wait to see you graduate high school and see you go on and spread your wings and fly on to your successful life. One day when we are old and crusty, this will all seem like a million miles behind us and for now it's hard, but we'll get through it. You're the light in my day and the shine in my life. Love you more than life and I'll see you soon.

With love,

Mad Mad

P.S. Can't wait for summer

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.
