To The Boy Who Made Everything Better

I didn’t know you were coming, but I am certainly glad you came. I didn’t know what life was like with you, but now I can’t seem to imagine my world without you. Your touch has turned my world upside down and right side up again, which is something I didn’t know was possible.

I was beginning to think that I was just going to have to settle. Settle for a boy that wasn’t dying to know every detail about me, or one that didn’t bother to ask about my day, or for one who wasn’t able to detect when something was causing me to feel a little uneasy. I thought I was going to have to settle for someone who didn’t open doors or hold my hand in public, or who didn’t treat me like a priority.

But then you came along and made everything better.

The boy who made everything better finds a way to be patient with me. He has no patience when it comes to waiting in traffic, or waiting at customer service desks, but he does have patience with me. He takes the time to explain things that don’t make sense to me. He finds a way to occupy himself when forced to wait while I get ready. My awful time management doesn’t bother him like it has others. Even when I think he may lose his patience, he never does.

The boy who made everything better constantly reminds me what I mean to him. He is always calling me “beautiful” and thanking me for being who I am. He has never led me to doubt if/what type of priority I am in his life, and he is always making time for me even on his busiest days. I know he appreciates me just as much as I appreciate him. I never go to bed at night wondering if I crossed his mind that day, and I never have to wonder if the me that I am is good enough for him. He has taught me what it is like to be completely secure and confident in a relationship.

The boy who made everything better doesn’t let me carry on my days with a heavy heart or mind. He makes sure I always say everything I need to say to lift a weight off of my chest. His ears are always open for listening, and his words are always there for guidance and reassurance. I know things I say to him aren’t going in one ear and out the other. I know he will always remember the smallest details, and won’t let a conversation end until it is actually over.

The boy who made everything better knows me better than I know myself. He knows exactly when to ask, “what’s wrong?” or when something has me a little on edge that day. He has figured out the perfect timing for when to hold my hand or kiss me because he seems to do so at the times when I need it the most. He can tell that something is bothering me through a simple text message. He also has an amazing way of predicting what is about to go through my mind before the thought even comes to me myself.

The boy who made everything better never fails to put a smile on my face. His cute text messages always seem to catch me off guard and have me smiling from ear to ear instantly. Even when he isn’t doing anything to attempt to make me smile, he still does. His jokes can be a bit lame sometimes, but they probably make me laugh more than the ones I do find funny. I think at this point, I even smile in my sleep because of him.

The boy who made everything better is everything I prayed for, and more. He calls me beautiful, opens the door for me, kisses me on the forehead, and much more. He is always asking questions, ones that no one else has asked before. He jokes around with me just as much I do him and isn’t afraid to give back the sarcasm I dish out. I thought to find a significant other that is also your best friend was a myth, but he proved me wrong. The conversations we have are much more than I ever thought I would be able to have with a person. We share the same morals and values and enjoy all the little things in life.

The boy that made everything better can never be thanked enough for all that he is and all that he does.

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.

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.
