An Open Letter To All My Friends

For all the people I will never forget.

An Open Letter To All My Friends
David Flynn

Throughout my life, I have come across many people who have a great impact on my life. They are people who I can rely on, people who I created amazing memories with, they are people I call my friends. Without these people in my life, I would probably not be the outgoing spirit I am today. I would not be as happy as I am without you guys. So here it goes, everything I have to say to all my friends:

Whether we talk on a daily basis, once every few months, or not at all; please know I still think about you and all the great times we had/have. I wonder how you are doing at school, work and just life in general. I think about the life you are building for yourself and hope you are living the life you deserve. You were and still are an important part of me and you are nothing I will ever forget. Whether we left off on bad terms or drifted apart, for whatever reason, you are still my friend.

Thank you for supporting me through stages of my life when I needed an extra boost of confidence. Thank you for making me feel free and myself whenever we were together. Thank you for being an escape from reality or the person I need/needed to vent to when reality got tough. Friends are meant to lift you up when times get hard. Thanks for being able to relate to what I have going on in my life, that way I don't feel like I am the only one.

I want you to know I am always going to be there for you no matter what. When you feel lost or alone, please know there is someone who cares for you and wants what’s best for you. Please know I do not care how long it has been since we have talked, I still love you and the person you are becoming. I treasure you and the relationship we have because that will never be lost.

Life is a rollercoaster, so how can you enjoy the ride when there is no one to enjoy it with (cheesy quote, I know). I cannot go through life giving up on friendships I have. Life is too much fun and too short to forget a person who was a monumental part of me. Thank you for being a part of the rollercoaster called life with me (yep, there was another one). Without you, I honestly don’t know how I would survive. Thank you for being a special part of me.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
