Thanks for everything

Thank You To The Group of Girls I Called My Friends
Humble Handmaid

Thank you for being my best friends. Thank you for leading me to Christ. I couldn't have done it without you. Thank you for sharing what was happening in your life with me. It means a lot that you trust me that much. Thank you for listening to my problems in return. Thank you for the one time you asked if I had a "good day." I said "no," and you brushed it off like it was nothing. It showed me what it was like to have people say they were there for you, but to turn around and find myself confused by my frustration at the fact that you didn't care.

Thank you for living on the same hall as me. It made me feel better knowing that my best friends lived so close to me. I could go down the hallway a few rooms and there was someone there if I needed you. Thank you for telling me that you "missed me." It meant a lot to hear that from someone who lived right across the hall and had my number but it had been days since you've seen me. Thank you for making me feel further away from everyone even if I was only a few feet away.

Thank you for inviting me when we went out. Thank you for letting me join in on parts of your life. Out of all the people you could let into your life, you chose me to be one of them. Thank you for only inviting me if I was in the room. Thank you for never thinking of me if I wasn't seen. Thanks for showing me I picked the wrong friends to be with. Thank you for showing me there were people that did care for me, but only when it was too late.

Do I regret making you my friends? No.

Thank you for showing me not to settle for people that aren't what I want in life. Thank you for that not every friend that I make won't be the best for me and that I should let go when I see the red flags instead of hoping they turn green. Thanks for the great first semester of college and bring me back down to earth my second one.

Thank you for everything. I don't mean this in a condescending way, for I actually mean it. Thanks.

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.
