I want to thank you both for everything you did for me in high school. At times, high school was difficult and a place that I did not want to be. When I had problems that I needed to talk about, you two were the ones I could count on. I knew that I could go to you with anything. I would never feel judged and I would never feel like you did not care. Thank you for being caring and understanding when it came to the problems I had. Even if these problems were small and did not seem to matter, you never made me feel like I was boring you. You listened while I talked on and on and I cannot thank you enough for that.

You made me feel like I belonged in a place where it was hard to belong. You helped build up my confidence and helped me realize my worth. I do not know where I would be right now if it wasn't for both of you. You impacted my life in ways that are difficult to explain. You made me realize that things get better and things that happen in high school won't matter forever. You helped me realize that some people are not worth keeping. You helped me realize that I can be whoever I want to be if I just work hard. You did so much for me and I miss you both every single day.

Not only did you help me find myself, you also helped me with my school work. I never felt stupid coming to you with a question about something that I did not understand. You were always there to help me and that is how you are with all of your students. You both are such passionate people and it is easy to see that you deeply care for all of your students. You listen to your students, even if they do not listen to you, and you help them when needed. You would never give up the chance to help someone and that is what makes you such great teachers. You also seem so excited everytime that you see me. I love being able to come home from college and see you guys. Seeing how happy you are when you see me makes me realize how much you truly care for me. I love that you both are so caring, even when I am gone.

I just want you both to know that you are great teachers. I know that sometimes it might feel like you are not making a difference, but I promise that you are. There is at least one student who looks up to you, whether it be a high school student or a student who is now in college (aka me!). You should never change the way you teach or the way that you communicate with your students. Any student is lucky to have teachers like you. You are the kind of people who are going to change the world for someone, just like you did for me. You made me feel so much better about the person that I was and I will continue to thank you for that.

You have both inspired me to try my hardest and to never give up. You have taught me so many life lessons, some without even realizing it. I would have been lost in high school without the both of you. I just hope that one day I can make an impact on someone's life for the better like you did with me. I will always miss having your class, but I know that I can always come to you guys if I need anything. Again, thank you for everything that you have done for me. Stay awesome and I hope to see you soon!

Love,

Your Favorite Student

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.
