Siblings

Ya can't live with them, and ya can't live without them.

Oh the joy you get of finding out that you are either getting a new younger sibling, or that when you came into this world you already had a sibling anxiously waiting on your arrival. Having a sibling can the best and worst times throughout your life. It is not always rainbows and butterflies, but it also isn’t only rain and thunderstorms either.

Your sibling can be like your twin at times you are both on the same page thinking the exact same thing at the exact same time, or then at other times can be your polar opposite. They can be your competition always competing to be the “favorite” child or the one better at a certain thing. Or they can be your companion when trying to prank your mom. They are the ones you want to be around when they are gone, but also the ones you want to be gone the moment they are around. The only one that can save you from getting in trouble, or the one that gets you in trouble. The one that calls you the meanest names that make you cry, but also the only one that is allowed to call you those mean names. Because if anyone else does they get pound. The one that you look up to at times and wish you were, and at other times wish you weren’t. The one that you scream and fight with, but the only one that can make you laugh so hard you have tears falling from your eyes.

Having a sibling is like having a best friend and a worst enemy all in one. They can be that one and only person at the time that truly understands you. The bond that siblings share is like no other bonds that you will ever experience. I know for me personally I am the only girl and the youngest and I wouldn’t trade my two older brothers for the world. Yes, they do get on me about everything because I am their baby sister, but they are my very best friends. We always come to each other for everything especially making big decisions. Because it just doesn’t feel right making that decision without knowing that it is the right decision. I mean you wouldn’t make a big decision without confirming with your best friends now would you?

Siblings are the best gifts that God and your parents could ever give to you. Having a sibling is so important, and has such a huge impact on your life. Siblings are people that come into your life rather you want them to or not, but man you are sure glad they did once they are here. If you have a sibling you always have a friend.

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.
