10 Thank Yous To My Older Sisters

In This Article:

Thanksgiving is one of the best holidays. Not only because of the amazing food, but because of the time we get to spend with family. More specifically, all of my sisters and cousin sisters are together, and there is truly no one else like them. Every year, I am thankful for their presence in my life.

Here are 10 thank yous I have this ear for my sisters:

1. Always picking up the phone.

I called ten times a day, and they pick up ten times. Even when I have the dumbest things to talk about.

2. Knowing me inside and out.

This really speaks for itself. You know all my triggers, the things that make me happy, sad, and all that lies in between.

3. Loving me unconditionally.

Little sisters can be kinda terrible. Thanks for not giving up on me yet.

4. Listening to me rant.

College is stressful, the people are stressful, and you always know exactly who everyone is in my stories. During all of my ten phone calls a day.

5. Talking to me when it's dark outside.

Walking through campus in the dark while you're alone is actually the worst thing. So lucky to have people who keep me company virtually whenever I have to do it.

6. Keeping me in my place.

Sometimes I get out of hand or unreasonable, and I can always bet on you to keep me grounded.

7. Giving me all of the unsolicited advice.

Advice I want, advice I don't want, all advice is welcome and appreciated.

8. All of the hand me downs I've ever needed.

I can't remember the last time I actually paid money for something in my closet. It is a true blessing.

9. Helping me with all of my school questions. 

Whether it was high school math homework, what classes to take in college, or all of the best places to go out, you always have my back.

10. Being my very best friends. 

No friend will ever compare to a sister.

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.
