To the One Who I Thought Would Be "T​he One"

We've all been there. Thinking that we would be with that one person in the end.

To the One Who I Thought Would Be "T​he One"

This one was hard to write for me. I wasn't sure I wanted to write about it or even post it, but here it goes.

This one happened out of nowhere, and when it did, it happened fast and feelings were caught, at least for me. Before I could process what we were or what we had, he had gone back to school. And not just school, but on a semester abroad.

We kept in contact while he was away at school but not a ton. I wanted to blame the time difference, and then started to think it wouldn't work out. But any time we had a conversation with each other, it seemed like nothing had changed, and I had that happy feeling that people always talked about when talking to that someone special and having that dumb smile on my face and not even noticing it.

The connection was instant, nothing I've ever felt before with someone.

It was easy to talk to him, joke with him and tell him how it was when needed (haha). He was the person that I drunk called or texted. He could easily make me smile with the simplest of texts.

I was confident around him and never felt like I had to hide or be shy about anything.

Let me tell ya, he could sing. I remember the night that we were going downtown for some drinks. I was driving, and he started playing a song.

When he started singing, I was in shock and amazed. I'm not saying that I thought he would be a bad singer, but he surprised me and left me speechless.

I think I fell for him then.

He was the guy I could've seen myself with. The one I wanted to introduce to my family. The one that would go on vacations with. Do stupid, cute couple things with. Someone to do life with.

We never said goodbye to each other, which made me hold on longer than I should have. So this is my goodbye to close that chapter in my life. Now, I just wish the best for him and a happy life ahead.

Goodbye P.

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.
