My Sister Is My Person

I don't have to like you, but I have to love you.

Sam,

I remember being little and begging mom to put you back in your crib because you annoyed me. Then, we got older, I would beg mom to keep you away from me. Now I don't mind you too much. I guess that's what happens when you finally realize your sister is your best friend.

I went from not wanting to spend any time with you, to being excited to hang out with you. Obviously, there are still times I need my space and you don't understand that, but for the most part, I think we get along pretty well. It's probably because your so controlling and I'm the complete opposite.

You might be difficult to get along with because you can be so mean, but I know occasionally you can be nice. I have had multiple teachers come up to me saying that you were such a nice student and I looked at them like they were crazy.

You drive everyone in the house absolutely insane, but you know it's better you than me. It drives me crazy when you yell at me to put my clothes away, but I guess I should just be happy you washed them for me.

I know I don't always say thank you for cleaning up after me and for being there for me when I need to rant. I do appreciate it a lot. I already know I'm your person and I guess low-key you are mine.

I'm always saying mom and dad should have stopped after me and you always say they should have stopped after you, but at the end of the day, I couldn't imagine my life without you and Jessie. I don't have to like you, but just know I love you.

I'm lucky to have a sister who takes such good care of me, even though you are a pain in the a**. You inspire me everyday to not care about what others think and to do whatever I want. I hope you have an amazing birthday! I love you Samster!

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.
