The Best Things About You

Whoever your "you" might be

The Best Things About You
Sierra Shaffer

Around Valentine's Day, I asked a lot of people who I am close with what their favorite thing about their boyfriend or girlfriend was. When asking this question, I expected the responses to be short and sweet such as "I like how sweet she is" or "I like that he's athletic" or something like that. Nothing could ever prepare me for the answers I actually got. Let me tell you, I'm not one to cry, but when I read all of these, I shed a tear or two. For the people who contributed, your initials are listed at the end of what you said, for those who these statements are about, enjoy reading this.

So, in response to the question "What is your favorite thing about your bf/gf?" Here are the answers I gathered:

"I love how he's my best friend and I can talk to him about anything and everything" K.M

"My favorite thing about her is how comfortable we are with each other. She is able to make me smile and laugh without even trying and every time I look at her it reminds me of how amazing she is to have. We would also do anything for each other, but there are a lot of other reasons too." R.S.

"My favorite thing about him is that he is straightforward with his emotions unlike other boys." A.W.

"Every time I see her I can't help but smile because she's all that I need to be truly happy." J.L.

"My favorite thing about him is that he sees the best in everyone." O.C.

"If I had to pick one it would be how kind hearted she is. She's so sweet and nice and thinks about others before herself and no one has as big of a heart as her." R.G.

"My favorite thing about him is probably his selflessness." M.S.

"My favorite thing about her is how caring she is to me. She is always there to listen to me and help me." N.R.

"My favorite thing about him is that he knows me better than anyone else. He pays attention to all the little things I do and say and he remembers them. He also knows right before I'm about to cry or when I'm angry before I even have to say anything." M.H.

"My favorite thing about her is being able to vent to her about my problems and relieve stress without feeling judged" S.B.

"My favorite thing about him is that he makes everyday with him an adventure. We never get stuck in a routine of things, and he's always up to do anything and everything even if it's something I enjoy a lot more than him." S.S.

"I like a lot of things about her but if I had to choose just one it would be her personality and how caring and nice she is" C.W.

"He makes me feel super comfortable and confident." T.F.

Every couple has their own love story that is different and unique. It warms my heart that all of these people have so much love for each other and thank you for sharing it with the world. I love you all

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.
