To The Friend I Thought I Lost Forever

Thank you for being my person.

To The Friend I Thought I Lost Forever
Niyati Khakhar

In my experience, when friendships hit bumps, they end. They always end. I had never met a real friend who stuck by my side no matter what bumps were in the way. Until I met you.

Since the day we spoke for the first time, I noticed something. I noticed that you have a personality that I had never seen before. Life just flowed out of you, like a radiating light. No matter what was going on, your outgoing laugh and outlook on life just seemed to make all of the other stuff fade away. You always felt like a place I had never been. I knew I had something good; something worth holding on to. I would have done anything in my power to keep holding on to you. You slipped through my fingers faster than I ever could have anticipated, and it's a day that will run circles around my mind for a long time to come.

Have you ever met someone, that almost didn't seem human? Someone that was just so amazing that you just could not fathom how much love you had for this person? I certainly had never felt that. Losing you was the hardest, most horrible thing I could have imagined. That night, the world felt empty. Not just my bedroom, not just my building. There was something missing. That night I knew I had just let go of something that I would never be able to replace.

All the memories I have with you, all the laughs and awkward moments chased me in circles. I missed the feeling of knowing I had you. I was not going to let this be the end of it, if it was the last thing I did. Our inside jokes would slip out sometimes, and it would break my heart a little bit more each time.

"I LOVE YOOOOUUUUUUUUUUUU!"

Rekindling with you was by far the most refreshing and reassuring thing I have done. We both realized that this can not be so easily replaced, and I have really found myself one of the most loyal, loving, funny human beings there is.

Thank you for being my person, I truly love and appreciate everything you have been, and everything you are.

In case you forgot:

Your butt is perfect.

Your smile lights up the room.

Your mind is insanely cool.

You are way more than enough.

You are doing an amazing job at life.

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.
