To My Parents On Their 26th Wedding Anniversary
Alexia R. Guzmán

Dear Mami & Papi,

As you celebrate your 26th wedding anniversary, I just wanted to let you know what it means for me to be your daughter. Throughout my life, I have never doubted your love for one another. I have never doubted your support. Most importantly, I have never once doubted as if Francisco, Pablo, Diego and I were the luckiest children in the world by having you as our parents.

I know that I can be difficult at times but I know that when you give me tough love it is only because you want what is best for me.

As I grow older, I realize with each passing day what a blessing it is to have parents like you. Thank you for everything you have done for us. I want you to know that I love you from the bottom of mi corazón and how proud I am to be your daughter, a Guzmán

On this day 26 years ago you said "I do." to each other. That is just 5 more years than I've been alive. Crazy. I am truly blessed that God gave you to Francisco, Pablo, Diego, and I.


Thank you for giving me tough and unconditional love.

Thank you for being more of a parent and less of a friend. Because of this I know that that lessons I have learned from you will benefit me in the long run.


Thank you for keeping God first. Without my faith, I don't know where I would be. Because of this I put my armor of God on everyday and know that with Him on my side there is nothing I cannot handle.

Thank you for giving me 3 brothers. I wouldn't have it any other way. They are my little-big brothers. I know that because of you they are growing up to be true men of God.



Thank you for our dog, Uno. He is our best friend and I can't imagine our family without him.

Thank you for teaching us to never give up.

Thank you for letting us know what hard work is all about.

Thank you for instilling in us academic excellence. From the many tears shed while I was in Buffalo Prep to getting my 4.0 GPA in college, I have you to thank for pushing me to be in Guzmán mode.


Thank you for proving to me that true love does indeed exist in this crazy world. You are my #relationshipgoals.


God first, family second, school third, and everything else will fall into place. That is the motto. That is what I will carry with me for the rest of my life all because of you.

Happy 26th wedding anniversary Mami & Papi.

Here's to many more years to come.

Bendición.

All my love,

Your Favorite Daughter

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.
