An Open Letter To The Husband I'm Praying For
Giordano's Weddings

Maybe I am not so far off from finding you, or maybe you are a million miles away at this point in time. Either way, I cannot wait to meet you. Or maybe I know you, but have no clue what you will mean to me one day. Every girl always dreams and fantasizes about the day she will find her perfect man, and I cannot wait to sit back one day and connect it all to you. You better know that I waited a long time for you, but I am glad you took your time in finding me. I did not have the easiest path leading to you. There have been upsets, failures, heartaches, and wasted time from every relationship before you. I cannot wait to leave those all in the past and start something fresh with you in my future as my forever.

But just know what I have been through has made me a better, more loving woman for you. I have learned to put aside difference and communicate like adults from an ex who constantly was condescending or constantly yelling. I have learned to not automatically jump to conclusions after numbers of times crying assuming the worst when really everything was fine. I have learned to listen instead of talking over men like I did sometimes in the past. While there were many other things I have learned, the lessons along the way were to prepare me for you. I am sure you learned some lessons on your rough and beaten path to me as well, and I will be interested to hear about them.

I hope you have been praying for me all these years like I have for you. I also know my family has been praying for you as well, so do not let them down. I cannot wait to have a healthy, lasting relationship with you once our paths cross.

Until then, I will be praying.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
