Certain people in our lives serve different purposes and that is the beauty of friendships.

Here are 10 types of friends we all need in life...

1. The listener

When things are iffy, turn to the friend who you know will give you moral support. They are the ones who keep your head on straight when they know something's up. You'll always tell them how you feel eventually.


2. The loyal one

You know this friend can always be counted on. We all make pretty dumb mistakes sometimes, but having that loyal friend who is by your side during your worst is someone who will never fade from your life. They don't judge you.


3. The parent

We all have that one friend who has those mom-like qualities, and I am not mad about it. Knowing someone has your back like your mom does is a pretty neat thing.

4. The life of the party

Everyone has that friend they can count on when they want to let loose. They are like your relief, and you can always bet they are dragging you out to put a smile on your face and boost your confidence.


5. The sister

Whether or not you have a sister, you can find friends who you feel so close with that they do feel like family. Luckily for me, I have two sisters who are my best friends and I cherish all of the secrets we share. Family can be the best type of friend.


6. The brutally honest one

Let's be serious... where would we be without that tough love?


7. The brother

My little brother is one of my very best friends. There is something really special about that. If you don't have a brother or vise versa, I am sure you can relate by cherishing that cool friendship you have with someone of the opposite sex.

8. The jokester

We all have that friend who we can be goofy with. Not only can you be lame around them, but they are there to laugh with you and make you feel better about yourself every time you need it.

9. The childhood friend

Even though sometimes we grow apart from childhood friends, you hands down know you can call them at any time and nothing would have changed. The number of inside jokes you have are insane, and you will always have a bond. These are really special people and they will forever keep you young.


10. The Yin to your Yang


You know, that person that is the peanut butter to your jelly or the burger to your fries or whatever. Sometimes, this is your significant other and that is pretty dang cool. That one person who you can be yourself with and feel fully complete when around them. They are keepers.

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.
