Little,

First, I want to start off by saying how much I love you. When I first met you during your new member period, I just knew you were something special. You stood out from everyone else and we made that instant connection. When I finally got you as my little after waiting for what seemed like years, I couldn't of been more happy. We were a big/little dynamic duo, ready to take on the world.

Since then, I have had the privilege to watch you grow into a beautiful, strong and intelligent young woman not only in the sorority, but in life. I have seen you be kind to others when they are in need. I have seen you offer new, amazing ideas that no one had ever thought about. I have seen you make mistakes, but grow from them in such a graceful way.

I know during the school year, things can get a little crazy. There are papers to write, jobs to work at and sisterhoods to attend. It can get a little overwhelming and sometimes it feels like life is just a big old mess. But never fear...your big will always be here.

Here are some things that I promise I will be and do for you, not only during your college years but the rest of your life.

I promise to always be a phone call away.

Whether you are stressed out from classes or just need someone to vent to, I'll always be either a text or phone call away. I'll make sure to take time out of my day to chat it up with you always!

I promise to be your "Mom away from home"

If there ever comes a time where you catch the flu or are in need of some motherly assistance, you know I'll be there with chicken noodle soup and a big hug.

I promise to be your biggest fan.

Any position, job or general life choice you make, I will be supporting you the entire journey while yelling "That's my little!".

I promise to never judge you.

You might make choices I don't understand, but I will never look down on you. You are a smart and courageous woman, and anything you choose is the right choice for you.

I promise to hold you when things go wrong.

Boys will suck and breakups will happen. I promise to be there ASAP with ice cream, tissues and break up mixed CD's to help wash the pain away. Oh, and lots of cuddles.

I promise to never let you down.

When I got you as a little, I made the most important promise: to never forget about you, hurt you, and to always be there for you. I will always be your role model and you will always be my special someone. No matter where we end up in life, big and little we will always be.

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.
