To My Boyfriend When We Are Fighting

I told you this would be hard from the beginning.

To My Boyfriend When We Are Fighting
Farrah Matthews

There are ups and downs. There are highs and lows.

When we are fighting or arguing, I need you to think to yourself:

“Are there more highs than lows?” “Is there more happiness than sadness?”

If not, leave my tail in the dust. If there is more happiness, put on your fighting gear.

I am stubborn. Probably one of the most stubborn women you will ever meet. I will fight for what I think is right and for the things I love. But hopefully the fighting is nothing compared to the highs you get with me.

When you think of happiness with me, I want you to remember all of the times we laughed so hard that our abs hurt. I want you to remember our really loud and bad singing in your truck. I want you to remember our midnight barefoot dancing in my dorm room under my twinkle lights. I want you to remember our stop light kisses and how bad I am at being your big spoon (I make a much better back pack).

Remember when you shaved your leg for the 5K and I couldn’t cuddle you for weeks? Remember that time you admitted to liking Grey’s Anatomy? Yeah, me too. Oh and when you found out how bad I really am at playing the piano along with every other instrument in history.

But if you do end this, we will never get to invite our teacher to our wedding as a 'thank you' for blindly setting us up.

But you will get to cut (or not cut) your facial hair however you like, without harassment. And you can wear your short-shorts to go running whenever you like.

There will be too many things to miss.

I’ll miss my friends taking candid Snapchats of us outside.

I’ll miss you singing love songs to me.

I’ll miss you kissing my hand when you’re driving.

I’ll miss joking with you about how we met and giving you a hard time.

You’ll always be “music major” to my friends, “Ford guy” to my brother, “boot guy” to my coworkers.

But I’ll miss you. My big spoon. My guppy. My honey.

I love you.

I will always want to keep fighting with 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.
