To My Best Friend

Hey babe,

First I want to say thank you. Thank you for staying with me and fighting through everything messy because you believed in me. Thank you for holding my hand when I needed you to. Thank you for telling me to stop crying over that boy because he didn’t deserve my tears. You bring out the best in me and I thank you.

This isn’t to say that we don’t fight. Any healthy relationship has had its fair share of fighting, “break ups”, and make ups. Friendship as pure as ours has no words. It is strong and exciting, and anyone who hangs out with us knows that they can’t invite one without the other, but we would like to see them try. We can do anything together and never get bored of each other, maybe a little sick of each other, but never bored. Your family is my family, and my family is yours. With all of our inside jokes it’s hard to recognize if we are having a regular conversation, or if we are quoting a scene from our favorite movies.

You are the Ponton to my Inspector Clouseau, the Christina to my Meredith, the Tamara to my Jenna, and the Stiles to my Scott. You are the person that I want to be with me when everything goes to crap, and when everything goes right. You are the person who I can go to when I have the best or worst nights. I can tell you anything and never be judged.

For the past 10 years you and me have shared almost everything with each other. First kisses, first dates, first heart breaks, and so on. To have someone this special stay in your life for so long is something that most people don’t get to experience. Most people don’t find a person who makes every bad part of them better. They say that you have many soul mates in your life and I believe that you are one of mine. I would give anything for your happiness and I know you would do the same for me. That kind of sacrifice doesn’t come around often and the fact that we have found each other, two people that would give everything and anything to make sure the other is okay is a blessing. You come before almost anyone else in my life. I don’t know what I would or could do without you right there pushing me to be a better me.

You are my best friend, my other half, and I love you.

Always and forever,

Your best friend

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

By: James McDonald

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.
