To All The "Somebodies" In My Life
Good Reads

You said something the other day that really had me thinking: everyone has their somebody that they can be themselves with. While I agree, I don't think that "somebody" is just one person. This article is to all the somebodies in anyone's life.

The somebody who calls—thank you. You get what "I'm fine" means, even if we don't talk about it more then that. You don't understand how much those calls mean to me. You might have an idea, but it's nowhere close to being right.

The somebody who smiles—I don't know or remember your name, but your smile is so kind and sincere. Thank you for being so kind.

The somebody who grew up—remember how we first met? What happened that made us so different? Thank you for being in my life when you were, but let's not kid ourselves anymore. It was fun while it lasted but now we don't even wave when we cross each other. Thank you for the fun.

The somebody who stays the same—thank you for never growing up, for always remembering the inside jokes. Thank you for being the person I can always rely on no matter how long it's been since we last spoke.

The somebody who gets it—I am so happy you understand the little quirks I do and you just understand me. Thank you.

The somebody who always is prepared—thank you for always having extra anything. I wish I could think ahead and still remain organized so well. I am happy that you are always ready when I am unprepared.

The somebody who is worth it—as of right now you are the only person I see myself in, and I love that about us. We can be as goofy or as serious as we want and the conversations are never boring. I am so happy you are in my life and I can't wait to see where we go together.

The Somebodies in your life are the people who make life worth living. It doesn't matter who they are. Everyone you meet becomes a part of your life. Who knows? You might even be a Somebody to someone else.

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.
