In This Article:

Having an older sister means a lot of things. She will always be the most important person in your life. Don't take advantage of her.

I'll never really be alone.

No matter what, I know that she will always be there for me. She understands all of your troubles and will always give you the best advice to overcome them. She will always be there to fall back on.

We can share a closet. 

Pro-tip for the younger sister: Always ask before wearing. Don't make the mistake of taking something without asking because she will yell. Sharing clothes, shoes, and jewelry is one of the tiny perks of having an older sister.

She gave me fashion, movie, and music sense

Growing up, I was the tomboy. Eventually, when I decided to take advice from my sister, she gave me fashion sense. Guess who's the best dressed in the room now? She has showed me some of my favorite music artists as well as some of my favorite television shows. It also makes sleepovers a lot easier. We either watch The Office or a documentary.

She will keep it real with you.

Sometimes, she has to be the villain so I can hear the ugly truth even when I don't want to. She will never lie to protect me from my own feelings.

Her home is always open. 

Even when we grew up and moved away from one another, her home is always going to be my home as well. She is always going to open her doors to me if I need her to. I'll always find comfort in her.

She gave me advice that pertained to the real world.

Whether it was for applying to colleges or getting a job, she was always there to prepare me and make me aware of what I was getting myself into.

She always covered for you.

Had too much to drink at that party? Call your older sister. She will come to the rescue even if she is in bed with sun poisoning.

Being the older sister, the blame was always put on her but she dealt with it a lot better than I would've.

She is your lifetime travel buddy?

She will always agree to a getaway with her younger sister. The younger sister always has more fun anyway. Why not be apart of it?

No matter the destination or time, she will always agree.

Her wallet is always open to buy both of you lunch

Thank you for all of the food you've bought me in the past when I didn't have a job.

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.
