When I Was Lost, You Were My Sun, And I Have To Thank You For That

I love you from the bottom of my heart and when I was lost you helped me be me.

I remember the first time I saw you. I didn't know your name, although I really wanted to. You didn't know who I was (or so I thought), but one thing was for sure: That what would come out of the summer of 2017 was something I would hold in my heart forever. I went into the summer thinking I was only going to focus on the end goal which was getting better at my craft. Two weeks in you caught my eye, to be more specific the trees on your arm and the little mustache you had going on.

I was so nervous to talk to you, so that's why Tam gave me a helping hand. I don't really know why I was so nervous. Maybe because I knew I you were different from me and I wanted you to like me. Anyway, we started talking and I realized we were not that different at all, it was the opposite we would both rather do nothing all day and that was the winning ticket for me, but I knew the long distance was going to be the greatest challenge.

I want to thank you for always being so opened and silly with me, the way you and I make music is something I will never forget. I have never had this much freedom to be myself and really let anyone plant seeds in my heart. I am thankful that you keep watering my garden and don't let my flowers wilt or grow weeds.

I know times get rough between us and when we I am on the edge somehow you always find a way of grabbing my had and telling me it will all be ok. This is what relationships need to have when one person is uneasy the other needs to know when it's time to give reassurance. I am grateful that you are my sun and always manage to shine through the gloomiest of days.

There aren't enough words in this world that can describe how many roots you have grown in me. There is not a single word that can describe the way I feel when I am with you and in a strange way, I believe that this feels right. I love the way you sleep and how peaceful you look, I sometimes thank whatever power is out there for putting such a beautiful work of art in front of me.

I know we are all scared of letting someone in, but if we don't allow ourselves to be vulnerable how will we ever feel what love is supposed to feel like. I know it's very hard to describe what love feels like but my interpretation goes like this: You can't imagine your life without them, it feels wrong seeing yourself with another person, you feel tremendous appreciation and protection towards them. The most important one, your heart flutters every time you see them and hear their name.

There are not enough words that I can compile together to express my love for you but one thing is for sure, I will always make sure you know what a big part of my world you are.

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.
