A Letter To My Big Brother

Thank you for loving me in my awkward stages.

A Letter To My Big Brother
Hit Opinion

Big brothers are a role in your life that's much different than anyone else. They are annoying and they pick on you but theyre also one of your best friends and greatest protectors. They truly grew up with you and know you like no one else and I am so thankful to have a big brother.

Thank you for always being blatantly honest when I needed it. I may have hated it at the time but its something no one else can do for me. Sometimes its mean and I hate you for it but at least I know when my hair looks like crap or a boy is not worth my time.

Thank you for being strong when I couldn't. Sometimes there are situations when we need to be strong for our parents. Thank you for being the shoulder to cry on in private when I cant be strong anymore.

Thank you for always having my back. Whether its a dumb fight between me and my friends, an argument with another family member, or another boy problem, you are always there. Thanks for being there when it isn't just a small boy problem. Thanks for being my shoulder to cry on again when my heart was broken and for always offering to fight the boy responsible.

Lastly, thanks for being one of my best friends. Growing up together the amount of inside jokes and laughs start to add up. You are one of the funniest people I know and a master at making me laugh. Thanks for keeping my secrets and being the only one who has known me and loved me through all of my stages (even though you kind of have to).

Thank you for everything, love, your baby sister

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.
