Thank You For Being My Twin

She's not your big, and she's not your little. She's your twin, and you're thankful to have her.

Thank You For Being My Twin
Alison McWilliams

Being in a sorority is great. All of the wonderful women you meet will have some impact on your life in one way or another. There are your pledge class sisters - the ones who started their sorority journey the same time you did. The ones that learned about your organization, became aquatinted with the sisters, and took every step along the new member process with you. There are the seniors that you aspire to be like one day. You want to be able to leave a lasting mark on the chapter like they did. Then, you have your big. The one women you that is the perfect fit for you. You fall in love with her and want to be just like her. She's the one person you run to after every minor and major thing that happens to you.

But sometimes, if you're lucky, you're blessed with a twin. She'll be right beside you as you both go through the process of becoming a member. You'll get to experience everything Greek life throws at you together. She'll know just as much about the process as you do, so you'll have your very own person to talk through the confusion with. Your twin will been there for you through everything and you'll be thankful for her and all of the big and little things she does for you.

Thank you for being there for my every step of the way. You honestly were one of my first friends when we joined and I know I can count on you for anything that goes on.

Thank you for all of the laughter. You have always been there to make me laugh no matter my mood. You will never know how thankful I am for all of the fun filled days and nights we have had and the ones yet to come.

Thank you for also being my shoulder to cry on. Without you, I don't know who would talk some sense into me when I'm upset over something silly.

Thank you for your honesty. You also know how to tell me everything I don't want to hear just when I need to hear it.

Thank you for sharing your big. Although it may have not been our top choices or the ideal situation we wanted, I'm glad I got stuck with you to share a big with.

Thank you for also being my step in big when she wasn't around. All of our adventures wouldn't be complete without people thinking I'm your little.

Thank you for all of the study dates and late night food runs. Most of our study dates were more made up of talking and laughing rather than studying and productivity. But, hey, who needs to study?

But most importantly, thank you for being yourself. You're the perfect balance to my, well, everything.

My sorority experience wouldn't be the same without you. Thank you.

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.
