The Many Things I Owe To Delta Zeta

There is so much of what I have today that I owe to my sorority, Delta Zeta. Countless opportunities, memories and sisters that I would not have if it were not for the Delta Zeta sorority. It is hard to put into words how grateful I am to be a part of this organization, so I will try to express my gratitude with this article.

I owe my Big to Delta Zeta. I would not have my hilarious, beautiful, hardworking and loving Big if it were not for this sorority. She was my first true sister in Delta Zeta, and I honestly do not know what I would do if I didn't have her in my life. I love you, Big and thank you.

I owe my Twin to Delta Zeta. One of the best surprises of my time as a new member was receiving my twin. She is my sassy, gorgeous and wonderful twin, and I would not have had as many laughs in my life if it was not for her. I love you, Twin and thank you.

I owe my family to Delta Zeta. My spring break group, my roommates (past and present), and my family in Delta Zeta are a constant reminder of the choice to join Delta Zeta that I will never regret. I love you all and thank you.

I owe my Little to Delta Zeta. She is such a determined, spirited, flawless and amazing young woman that I am so proud to call my Little. I only want the best for her, and I would do whatever it takes to make sure she is happy (so do not even try to hurt her). I love you, Little and thank you.

I owe six founders to Delta Zeta. In 1902, six women joined together to form an unbreakable sisterhood that has grown to the wonderful organization it is after 113 years. I love you, Alfa Lloyd, Mary Collins, Anna Keen, Julia Bishop, Mabelle Minton and Anne Simmons and thank you.

I owe an amazing sisterhood to Delta Zeta. I have a network of over 254,700 sisters that I share a history, ritual and bond with no matter where I am in the world. I love you all and thank you.

I owe myself to Delta Zeta. I owe myself to Delta Zeta heart, mind and soul because I would not be the woman I am today without it. I have grown so much in the short time that I have been a sister of Delta Zeta. I have attended the Norma Minch Andrisek Leadership Conference. I have served on the Executive Board of my chapter for a year. I have been given the opportunity to be a strong woman in this organization and that has changed who am I for the better. For the rest of my life, I owe my whole self to Delta Zeta for what it has done for me, and I hope to be able to give back to her my best self.

I LOVE YOU, DELTA ZETA AND THANK YOU.

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.
