An Open Letter to an Old Friend

You will always be someone who is important to me

An Open Letter to an Old Friend
topkeyword.com

You know if this is about you, so if you're confused just keep reading. How are you doing? I'm doing well just in case you were wondering. We haven't talked awhile, so long that I feel like I don't know you anymore. Do you feel the same way? I wonder that a lot. We had a lot of good times, great times actually. Days spent just talking for hours on end while going from our favorite restaurant to the mall to just driving around town. We told secrets, we ranted, we laughed, and we talked about the future. I don't know what happened. All of a sudden all of that just stopped. I often wonder if it was something I did. Maybe I just wasn't enough for you. I don't want to put the blame on you but yet I don't want to put it on myself because are we really to blame for this? When to people drift apart is anyone to blame? Maybe time just wasn't in our favor and our friendship wasn't meant to last. It's upsetting to think about it like that, but it's something we have to do. I will forever cherish our friendship because as cliche as it sounds, being friends with you changed me and I started to become someone who I always wanted to be.

Maybe you feel the same way to...

I hope you do. I hope You enjoyed your time with me because I enjoyed my time with you. I see that you're doing well. You seem happy and you seem like you're having fun with your other friends. Maybe in the future we will reconnect. I hope you accomplish your dreams. I hope you fall in love. I hope you go all the places you've always wanted to go. Most importantly I hope you live a happy life. I'm not angry our friendship ended, I was upset at first but as time went on I moved on and so did you. You probably expected this to be something negative, but now you know the truth and hopefully you feel better about it. On one last very important note, thank you. From the bottom of my heart, thank you.

Yours Truly,

McKenna

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.
