To All The Boys Who Will Break My Little Sister's Heart,

Let me just start by saying that you have lost a great person from your life and, as an older sister, it is now my duty to hate you, even if I once liked you. My little sister is one of the kindest, most honest, and most thoughtful people you will ever know. When she cares about someone she invests herself in them 150%, which is something I've always been a little jealous of. She will let you in her heart so easily and give you her trust immediately. She likes to think the best of everyone, which is something that I don't do. She doesn't know that the "boy next door" isn't always the best guy. She doesn't know that she won't be able to fix everyone that comes into her life as much as she wishes she could. My sister's the type of person that walks around trying to pick up everybody else's broken pieces, just wanting to put them back together.

There was a point in your relationship when she gave you the responsibility to be there for her every step she took. She wanted your support and love. She had pretty reasonable expectations if you ask me. She just needed you to be around. She knows what it's like to not feel wanted by people and I know that her needing you wasn't just about her. It was about you too. She didn't want you to feel neglected or left out. She wanted to need you and she wanted you to need her. She gave you everything, and then you left. Now she thinks she doesn't have anyone to pick up her broken pieces. Even though you left her, she's still going to want you there. Trust me, I know how it feels to be broken and then to only want the person that made the mess in the first place.

In the moment she felt like you had completely crushed her entire world, but let me tell you something, you didn't. You don't get to have the kind of control over her life. She'll be better than fine without you. She is fine without you. And she'll realize that pretty damn quickly when she looks back and realizes how badly you treated her. She will move on and she doesn't need you to be with her every step of the way because she's better than that. She'll learn that she doesn't need a guy to tell her she's beautiful every day because one day she will look in the mirror and be able to tell that to herself.

If you think about coming back to my sister, you better be on your knees begging for her forgiveness. Don't make it seem like what you did was her fault and don't make her feel guilty if she doesn't want to take you back. It's going to take time for her to heal and it's her decision to do it with or without you. Respect her decision. If she wants you gone forever, then leave. If she wants you to stick around, then you better stay. Don't you even think about leaving again if you decide you want her back, she doesn't deserve to have her heart broken again. She doesn't deserve to have her heart broken in general, but she definitely doesn't deserve to have her heart broken more than once by the same guy. Just know you'll have to prove yourself to her (and to me). Her heart is going to want to trust you again, but her head is going to be screaming "don't do it". Just let her do what she has to do to forgive you and move on from the past so you can move forward with the future.

You get ONE second chance and that's it so don't screw it up, or you'll deal with me and trust me you don't want that. If you don't want a second chance then don't pester my sister, don't talk to her, to try and get with her. Leave her alone because she doesn't need that in her life.

Sincerely the Angry Sister Who Wants to Punch You in the Face

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.
