Simple Advice to My Brother

Hey Brother,

I know that sometimes we don't get along, and sometimes we fight. But just know, that I always want the best for you. With that being said, I have some advice for you and I hope that you take it, and use it as you wish. I really want you to succeed in life, and see you do great things.

Always work hard.

Don't ever think things will be handed to you, because I promise that is not how things work. You need to work hard in your life. Making it big places takes hard work. Don't slack off even when you think things are becoming easy. That is when you need to work hard, go ensure things will go your way. I want to watch you become successful, but you need to work hard to get there.

Be nice to everyone.

Being kind is an important thing in life. Kindness will get you where you need to be. Be kind to everyone no matter who they are, you never know where that kindness to someone will lead you. It is important to me that you grow up to be kind and generous. Those are the people that impact others, and I want you to be that kind of person.

Don't give up.

Especially on your dreams. I want you to succeed and do great things in life. I want you to be the best person you can be. Don't ever give up no matter what you're doing: sports, work, or school. I know your abilities will take you very far if you just try. Don't give up on anything you do because its hard or putting up a challenge. I know you can do it, and we all believe in you. You can succeed, so do not give up, even when it might seem like things are too hard.

You can ALWAYS talk to me.

Sometimes things go wrong and Mom and Dad aren't the right people to talk to. Just know that you can always count on my to be a listening ear. I will always be there to talk and hopefully give you some good advice.

Never forget where you came from.

Like Tim McGraw says, "always stay humble and kind." These are words to live by. remember that in your heart you are just a small town guy. No matter where life takes you, remember where you came from, and where you got your start.

Stay close to family.

In all honesty, family should always be number 1. They have always been there for you, and always will be. Don't ever forget that. When the road gets tough, your family will always be there for you. Don't lose sight of that, because I guarantee they want to see you succeed just as much as I do.

Next time you need some encouragement, remember you can always look to me. Im your number 1 fan in life, and I a rooting for you to become a successful person. Stay humble, and remember your roots.

Love always, your 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.
