To My Big, You Mean The Big Wide World To Me

You are a wonderful person, friend, and the best Big I could have possibly asked for.

To My Big, You Mean The Big Wide World To Me
Sarah Schwartz

When I first started college, I was nervous, homesick, and beyond worried about what freshmen year would hold. I had no idea what to expect, had no clue how I'd make friends, and was constantly wondering if I'd have the same college experience that my older friends had all had. When I first got to talk to you, my stress went away almost immediately.

You felt like the older sister I had never had and the educated friend I could go to for the most random advice.

Thank you for consistently being a role model and incredible person. You impress me every single day and have remarkable traits that remind me all the time how wonderful you are. Your joyful persona is shared with everyone around you, and you somehow remind me of the goodness of a horrible day. You are truly one of the best people I've ever gotten the chance to meet, and I know many people can say the exact same thing.

Thank you for the laughs and funny moments that nobody else would find humor in.

We can turn literally anything into a joke, and I think of these often when I need a good laugh. Thank you for never giving up on me as a person, friend, or little, and always reminding me through your actions how much you care and how willing you are to help people out.

You have a heart of gold, and so many people can agree.

My favorite quote you've ever said was to a bee; "Don't sting me, I don't want you to die!" Your selflessness is reflected in every single thing you say or do, and if I didn't have such a positive influence in my life, I wouldn't be half the person I am today.

Because of you, I no longer about finding friends, and haven't felt homesick since that first week of school.

Because of you, I always have someone to find my cheesy jokes funny, and my wild emotions tolerable. Though we joke all the time, what I'm saying right now is far from a joke.

You are one of the best people I've ever met, and time with you is always happy and wonderful.

You are a wonderful person, friend, and the best Big I could have possibly asked for. You will change the world, and I am honored to have been a part of your life.

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.
