What Friends Are For

What Friends Are For

What does a friend mean to you?

To me, a friend is someone who knows you well, and can tell when something is bothering you. A friend makes efforts to make time for you, as you do the same. This person is there for you in times of need, happiness, sadness, or anger.

A friend can change your mood easily. Friends are in your life to make moments more enjoyable. Sharing memories with friends is what will make for great stories in the future.

A true friend is someone who you could not see for a period of time, but when you're together again it's like nothing has ever changed.

Friends make you laugh and feel confident about yourself. They are always there to back you up when someone is giving you a hard time.

A friend should never cut you down or make you feel uncomfortable. Instead, a friend should lift you up. Sarcasm is always fun here and there, but a friend should never intentionally hurt you.

Friends share trust with each other and confide in each other. They're the people you can share little and big things that happen to you, and are all ears to hear the details. Not only do you ask about how they're doing, but they ask about you, too.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
