Sometimes we just need to give thanks

Everyone has that one best friend that is there for them all throughout life. I could not be more grateful to have you in my life. This is for you.

Dear Best Friend,

Words cannot describe how much you have impacted my life. Thank you for listening to me complain over our two hour phone calls about the littlest things. You keep me sane and I couldn't ask for anything better. Going to school hundreds of miles away from each other sucks, but there is nothing I look forward to more than seeing you again, well besides mom's cooking. Your family is mine and my family is yours. Because we have been friends for so long, you've basically become my sister. Sometimes I sit back and think about all the memories we've shared. Sneaking alcohol at graduations parties to bitching about whatever possible.

There is nothing more that I love than spending time with you. I’ve realized over the years that all the high school parties we missed were all worth it because the party is were are. Whether it’s driving in the car to the mall or talking about tattoos we are planning on getting (sorry mom), our conversations can last forever. Now, growing up I tend to find myself wondering what you would do in certain situations that I am in. You have definitely become part of me and I am proud to say that. Thanks for inspiring me to eat fruit rather than cookies and to walk down to your house rather than drive no matter how dark it is. You're my role model, my sister, and well basically my other half. Sorry, but you are stuck with me. I wonder what my life would be like if we have never met, but I don't ever want to find out. Thanks for being pretty rad and always setting me straight when I come to you with my problems.

Love you to pieces best friend, see you soon!

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.
