A Short Open Letter To Everyone I'm No Longer Close To

It's okay that we're not close anymore

Dear Everyone I Was Once Close With,

I don't hate you, I promise. No matter what it be that brought us apart, a falling out, just becoming distant and growing apart, physical separation, any of that. None of that has given me cause to dislike you, nor could I ever- because if you were once close to me, that alone qualifies you to have a reserved space in my heart. I hope you don't hate me either. In fact, chances are I'm still proud of your accomplishments and cheering you on from afar! Just because we don't talk as much as we used to doesn't mean that I can't support you!

With that being said, I don't need to cheer you on from afar. I can cheer you on right by your side if you want me to. I can still support you, I can still listen to you, I can still try to help you with anything you need, and I'll do it all happily and willingly. I'm only a text, call, message, conversation away. I may have wronged you, you may have wronged me, no matter we can work through it if you're willing, because I'm always open to it. If you don't want to, that's entirely understood too. Just know there's no hard feeling.

If I was close to you a while ago and we've distance since then, know that I am a changed person. Life happens and changes everyone, and that may have been the very reason we grew apart. That's okay! If you ever want to catch up and talk for a little bit, I'd love to. I'm still me, just a grown and happier me.

Everyone I've been close with, there isn't enough space in a short letter to address each and every one of you individually, otherwise that would make it a very, very long letter. But I do still keep you dear to me, and if you want, I would be more than happy to catch up or just talk for a minute anytime.

Sincerely,

Someone who still loves and appreciates you lots.

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.
