You probably don't think about me very often, odds are you don't glance at my Facebook or Instagram every now and again, like I do to you. Your friends told you that I liked you and from there it started. I remember when you asked me to sit with you at lunch. It was strange because we ran in two different circles but that didn't really matter because heck I liked you a lot. We started snapchatting and you even made me your WCW at one point, but things change, you changed. Do you remember that time I made a complete fool out of myself with you? Or how painfully awkward I was around you after you told me you didn't actually like me? I have to admit it wasn't all bad, we did have some amazing times together before I realized I was just "some girl" to you. But that's not the point. I'm actually writing this to thank you.

Thank you for showing me what I don’t want, at the time I was devastated but eventually I moved on and realized, you're a jerk. You never would contact me first unless "nobody was home" and you wanted to "chill." Forget going out in public with you because in reality I was a last choice. If the three other girls said no then you'd ask me but that was a rarity in itself. I shouldn’t want to be with someone who is embarrassed of me.

Thank you for showing me I want someone who will support me. Telling me to skip practice after school or not show up to a race because you think it's lame doesn't let me grow as a person and only shows me how close minded you are. Just because you think the arts isn't important doesn't mean I do.

Thank you for showing me sex doesn't equal love, that hooking up doesn't take any heart whatsoever, this probably makes me the saddest because that one time we "chilled" in a porta-potty definitely wasn't worth it. This one probably hurts the most because up until I realized this I thought you must have loved me for wanting It so much when in reality you're some guy that wanted to get laid and that was that.

Lastly thank you for pushing me into the arms of the love of my life. Let's face it sometimes sadness can make us see our guy best friends in a whole new light and believe me that’s what you did. You remember him right? You called him a dork and said that he "ain't shit" well he is. He's great, best of all, he isn't you.

Sincerely,

The girl that’s over you

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.
