That one special person that we get to choose.

A best friend is one of the most important people that will ever come into your life. They're the family member that you get to choose and the person you trust with everything. Sometimes they don't know how important they truly are and how much we really appreciate them.

Dear Best Friend,

First of all I want to thank you for being such a great friend. The day I met you which was 10 years ago (I know that's a really long time now lol :/) I knew we would be close to each other. I can't imagine a my life without you, I wouldn't be where I am now in life if I didn't met you. You became more then a friend to me as years passed by and I'm so lucky that I found you.

There are so my many reasons for me to thank you I don't even know where to start from to be honest lol but hey I gotta start from somewhere right? :) I want to thank you for being a shoulder when I needed to lean on, thank you for always being there for me no matter what the situation was, thank you for believing in me when I was too weak and exhausted to believe in myself.

Thank you for not judging me when I did something really stupid, but also thanks for telling me I was an idiot and probably shouldn’t have done the stupid thing. Thank you for always being honest. There so many reasons for me to thank you that I can't even write it down. Thank you for doing all the things a real best friend does; for letting me sob into your shoulder when I need to and handing me the flask when there aren’t any more words. Thank you for always knowing who I am and reminding me of that when I forget. Thank you for being genuinely concerned with the outcome of my life and always listening, even when you’re tired of me always complaining. Thank you for telling me the things no one wants to hear and sparing the bullshit advice. I can’t think of many other people I’d actually take a bullet for. But mostly I want to thank you for being in my life I love you.

Sincerely, your best friend

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.
