What It Means To Be My 'Person'

Anyone who has ever watched Grey's Anatomy knows where I'm going with this, the famous phrase repeated over and over again between Meredith Grey and Christina Yang. They say, "you are my person" to one another. The bond they develop over the course of that series is unbreakable and words do not even begin to describe the friendship they share. To be someone's 'person' is typically meant you are one part of a relationship that can only be shared between two people who both accept being called dark and twisty. Being someone else's 'person' comes with a lot of weight.

You are my person every day. At the end of the day you are the one I want to be around and you are the one I want to call no matter what happens. When something good happens I want to call you. However, it's not just good times when you are someone's 'person'. When I'm in trouble I want to call you, too. This is a responsibility you hold when you are my 'person'.

You are that one 'person' by my side through thick and thin. You will always be there for me and because of that, I will always try my very best to reciprocate that action.

You're the person that I worry about. I worry about you when you have a bad day and I expect the same from you when I am having a hard time, too. I worry about you and you're ability to stay safe in the world that is so 'dark and twisty', as Meredith would probably call it. Whenever you start to show the 'dark and twisty' side of you, it is my job to bring you back to reality.

You're my person forever. Once you get this involved, there is no running. Being someone else's 'person' is a lifetime commitment. You will be right by my side as we learn to navigate the crazy world we call life together.

You're my person, and if you're my person, you will always be my person. In the end we have to dance it out together, because there is no one else I would rather have by my side.

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.
