To My Best Friend That Has Stuck By My Side For A Decade

Nobody knows me like you.

To My Best Friend That Has Stuck By My Side For A Decade

Nobody knows me better than you. We have been to hell and back together time and time again. We grew up together through the awkward brace faces, nerdy outfits, and crazy habits. We went to the movie theater with our parents (while of course getting yelled at for being too loud), listened to the same pop stars and had the same Jonas Brothers obsession. We got used to each other, learned each others ins and outs and grew up in the same town. No matter how much time or distance has come between us, we always find our way back to one another. Every time I return home, it is like I haven't missed a thing. We can always look back on all the dumb shit we have done over the years and do nothing but laugh.

We were there for each other through our first boyfriends (if that's what you want to call them). You are the friend that has never judged me. I've never felt so comfortable around someone in my life whether it is eating like a pig, crying like a baby, or screaming over some crazy drama. Who else would I have to share my sex life with and giggle with about my first kiss in middle school? You are the reason coming home is always special and worth the drive.

Even when I am in a new environment, you still remain unforgettable in my heart. We would always hang out with each other no matter what, even if it involved one of our parents driving us thirty minutes away. Since we have spent so many years together your family is easily just as important to me as my own.

Nobody but you will ever be able to read me just by a simple facial expression. The inside jokes are endless and they are like a code between the two of us. There were definitely times that we disliked each other because of stupid reasons, but we were able to mend our friendship like nothing had ever happened. You are like my personal therapist that can understand my thoughts more than I can myself. All of those awkward years we spent together somehow tie us together for life. You know all of my embarrassing moments.

We can be so brutally honest with each other and be able to easily take it but still know how to give the perfect compliment. I am totally comfortable sitting in silence with you for hours and doing absolutely nothing. I can nearly read your mind. We have been there for each other through every major crisis and know what to say in each situation. I simply could not picture going through the past decade without you.

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.
