When we first met, I never knew that you would become one of my closest best friends. Actually, you are my number 1 best friend. I remember all the fun memories that we have made ever since that day. For example, the Scotty McCreery concert, the Spring Break beach trip, and all the endless car ride that we have had.

During middle school, we had cheerleading that kept us very close and honestly some of the memories that we shared in middle school were good and bad. When I moved to high school, I was scared that we would not be as close as we were. I thought that I would lose my best friend and I was not ready to face that.

During that time away from each other, we never really talked. Then a year later we were back at the same school. I know that we didn't talk a lot or hang out that often, I know that when either one of us needed the other that we would always be there no matter what. I just wanna thank you for that because knowing that I will always have a best friend by my side makes life a little easier.

During my senior year of high school, we got closer again. We made memories during that time and we had the balance of good and bad. We were there for each other when we made and achieved our goals. We also had the bad memories when we both went through breakups a couple months between each other.

I remember when I called you to tell you that my boyfriend broke up with me and you thought that it was prank since you and your boyfriend played it on me a couple months before. Then when you went through your break up, we decided to go to the movies and get CFA to get your mind off it. I greatly appreciate that you were there to help me go through my break up.

I know that we don't hang out together that much anymore and I really wish we would again. But, I want to thank you for all that you have done for me. You have seen me at my lowest and also at my highest. You have been the one that I call to help get my mind off of all the bad stuff.

You are also the one that I call when something good happens. Thank you for being there when I need someone to talk to about boys and I know that when I call you and I need to come to sit on your bed and watch Netflix that you will always say that I can come over.

You have been my best friend for the past 8 years and I have heard when you make it past the first 4 years that you will always be friends for the rest of your lives. Also, I want to tell you Happy Friendaversary! Here's to 8 more years!

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.
