A blessing and a curse all wrapped up into one

When You Give A Girl A Little Sister... Or 2
Sylvana

When you give a girl little sisters, you are giving her a lot more than just a family.

When you give a girl little sisters...

You also give her a new next door neighbor. There will be some nights you lay in bed next to each other watching Netflix and not saying a word. On the other hand, some nights you will get a hairbrush thrown at your face for even thinking about stepping foot into her room. When you get lazy you will scream through the walls to communicate or run into each other at 2 AM when you both can't sleep.

When you give a girl little sisters...

You will also get a whole new closet... or 2. If none of your clothes seem to suffice, no worries, because those next door neighbors I mentioned above, they have closets just waiting to be raided. At first, its great but one day one of them will prance in wearing the shirt you spent hours looking for. The rest of the house knows World War III may break out because, let's be real, this fight happens every. single. day.

When you give a girl little sisters...

You will always be someone's role model. Whether they like to admit it or not you are their number 1 role model. You test the waters for them and set the rules of the house. You get grounded first so they don't have to once their turn comes around. You are the one they looked up to the most. You will see this as them copying you and being annoying, but it is actually quite flattering.

When you give a girl little sisters...

You will always have someone to laugh with. They know you better than anyone, maybe even better than you know yours. They see some of your most embarrassing moments and will laugh with you about them when the times right... or 5 minutes later.

When you give a girl little sisters...

You will never be bored. Especially if there's more than one. The house will never be empty. You can drag them along on your pointless errands, and who knows you may find something for you two to do for the day. Maybe build a picnic table or a hammock? Just some ideas.

When you give a girl little sisters...

Your bargaining skills become impeccable. You all have your chores to do around the house so when your day for doing dishes comes along and you don't want to do them you offer to up $2 to whoever's desperate enough. May the odds be ever in your favor.

When you give a girl little sisters...

You most importantly, get two automatic best friends. You may fight (a lot) but you know they will always have your back just like you have theirs. They have seen you at your lowest lows and been there to celebrate your highs. You have someone to laugh with and shoulders to cry on. They are there to keep your secrets and threaten to spill them if you don't do their chores but you do the same so you can't complain.

The best part about giving a girl little sisters is getting to watch them grow up into people. They are no longer the babies.

They are playing Varsity Soccer and volunteering at Veterinarians offices. They are achieving things that I would have never thought they would and that is the best part about giving a girl 2 little sisters.

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.
