Thank God For My Best Friend

Everyone has a friend, but if you're really lucky, you have a best friend.

Thank God For My Best Friend

We're best friends because you get me, you understand me. Only you will know what I mean. We make eye contact and we know how the other feels or what the other is thinking without even saying a word. I guess you could call it a gift, right?

You know just how to listen. I can vent to you, and you'll tell me when my thoughts are spiraling out of control. You let me know that everything will be okay, that it will take time, but everything will be okay.

I trust you with my deepest, darkest secrets, and you trust me with all of yours. I know that you won't judge me or hate me for what I say. You are always there to listen as I am for you.

Without you, life would be so much harder than it already is.

If I need to call at 4 in the morning, you'll answer (you're typically up that late anyways). Knowing I can do that, just give you a call and laugh or talk about something serious, reassures me that everything is going to be okay. There is no one I would rather be on the phone with, no one I would rather joke or sing or procrastinate with!

I always know that you have my back. If someone is talking crap about me, I know you will stand up and put them in their place no matter who was around or what was said.

You always tell me the honest truth, even if it hurts and you do it because you want what's best for me. You always know what to say when it comes to a relationship, giving me a million "what if" scenarios or just telling me "there are other fish in the sea". Anything to make me feel better!

You always get me out of a bad mood. You radiate positive energy and it brightens even the worst day!

Even when you're in a relationship, we still manage to see each other. You aren't one of those people who disappears when they have a significant other. We still have movie nights, go out to eat, or just chill and play board games.

You are my best friend because of the love we have for each other. We look out for each other and help each other make it through the day. We are best friends because you make me feel less alone in this crazy, flaky world we live in. We would do anything for each other, we would go to the moon and back. I couldn't wish for a better person.

I love you 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.

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.
