To The Person Who Used To Be My Best Friend

I know I grew into a stronger person without you; I found my own voice, I found my own wings.

Dear Ex Best Friend,

It seems odd to call you an “ex” because you are still a part of my life, whether I want you to be or not. I don’t know why we drifted apart, maybe it was because you moved to another city or the fact that I started college. Either way, I miss you. I miss all the laughs we shared. I miss all of the tears we shed over heart breaks. I just miss you.

I wish we could talk more than the occasional “I hope you are doing well” speeches. I wish I could see you one more time and hug you, and to tell you how much you meant and still mean to me. I wish we could hang out at the local coffee shop just one more time...but things change...people change.

Maybe this was for the best, ya know? I know I grew into a stronger person without you. I found my own voice, I found my own wings. I believe that in life people drift in and out of our lives...and this was just our time to drift apart. I think we both learned things from each other, and we both made each other better in some way.

Ex best friend, I hope one day we can see each other...but until then, thank you for all the memories.

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.
